When will the Nexus 5 launch in India?



There has been a lot of speculation regarding the technical specifications, the Android version, the manufacturers and the release date of the much awaited Nexus 5. Now that the device is finally official, the question remains as to when it will be available in India.
Recent news leaks have mentioned 18st November 2013 as the final launch date. In India, Diwali is celebrated in the first week of November this year and with 1st November being Dhanteras. For Indians, Dhanteras is an extremely auspicious day in terms of making new investments, new purchases for the home and also for buying gold and silver.  Hence, the Nexus 5 will definitely be under consideration for those who are looking to buy a high class Android phone, and Google has mentioned that it intends to launch the device in India before the end of the festive season.

What is it that makes the Google Nexus 5 an eagerly awaited device? In one word, it is affordability. The Nexus 5 offers the same features as devices like the LG G2 for a fraction of the cost. 

The Nexus 4 was manufactured by LG, and has continued to do so with the Nexus 5. The device features cutting edge specifications at an extremely affordable price. Codenamed Hammerhead, the Nexus 5 comes with a 2.3 GHz quad-core processor along with 2 GB RAM and Adreno 330 under its hood. The large 5-inch display will support full HD 1920x1080p resolution which is something that hard core gamers and movie buffs can look forward to. The Nexus 5 comes with an 8 MP rear camera as well. The device comes with its own printing options and will also allow users to save the images in the PDF format on the device itself.  

Apart from introducing a completely new user interface, the latest version of Android, Android 4.4 KitKat, also comes with an SMS function for the Google Hangouts app. Similar to Moto X, the Google Now app in the Nexus 5 will also offer the 'always-on' functionality. Google Now will also accept commands in several other languages besides English. Being a true-blue Android device, the Nexus 5 also comes preloaded with plenty of useful apps including Google Drive. Wireless charging and NFC, two integral functionalities from Nexus 4, also continue in the Nexus 5.


As for the price range in India, Google mentioned that the 16 GB Nexus 5 will be priced at Rs. 28,999, while the 32 GB version will cost Rs. 32,999.
