Nexus 5 specs revealed in purported service manual


A purported Nexus 5 service manual was leaked to the Internet on Saturday, followed up by a removal on Sunday at the request of LG. Those two moves, documented by Android Police, seemingly validate the authenticity of the manual.

Here are some of the specifications of the LG Nexus 5, as revealed by the service manual:
  • 4.95-inch 1080p IPS TFT display
  • 32GB of internal storage (with another mention pointing to a 16GB version)
  • 2GB of RAM
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 at 2.3GHz
  • 8MP rear-facing camera, 1.3MP front-facing camera
  • Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Compass, Proximity/Ambient Light, Pressure sensors
  • Slimport compatibility
  • microSIM slot
  • Wireless charging for its 2300mAh battery
  • NFC
  • Notification LED
  • Bluetooth
  • UMTS/GSM/CDMA/LTE compatibility
The document says it is a draft version. That makes sense as it mentions Bluetooth 3.0 and 4.0 is the standard appearing in most handsets, if not all, high-end handsets now.
