Android Silver to Debut on LG Smartphone with Qualcomm



Last week reports indicated Google was canning its Nexus programme and replacing it with Android Silver. New reports now suggest the rumoured Android Silver project will debut on a LG handset.
LG, which is familiar with Google's methodology of creating platform lead devices for Android with itsLG Nexus 4 and LG Nexus 5 (Review | Pictures) offerings, is said to be in the process of building a new smartphone powered by Qualcomm MSM8994 SoC, thought to be an octa-core Snapdragon 810 SoC. The smartphone is also said to be the first to bring Android Silver to the world.
According to popular tipster @evleaks, the LG-made smartphone is a 'successor to the Nexus 6 initiative', and will be a Sprint carrier-exclusive device when launched in the US.
