Na Anubhavam With Batting

Google has not just one, but two new Nexus smartphones waiting in the wings. It'll be the first time it's launched two smartphones at once, and like the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, they'll be different sizes.

But unlike other firms' flagships, they'll both be made by different companies: rumours say the 5.2-inch one will be made by LG, while the 5.7-incher will be made by Huawei.

So what else is there to know? Read on, and we'll give you the skinny on what could be the iPhone's fiercest rivals.

According to sources speaking to CNET, both phones will launch on September 29th – that's three weeks today.

The sources say the event will be held in San Francisco, meaning it'll likely be in the evening UK time.

This would be a little earlier than Google's previous Nexus launches. It unveiled the Nexus 6 on October 15th last year, and the Nexus 5 on October 31st 2013.

An earlier launch is likely because Google wants to stop Apple hogging all the headlines.

That's according to TalkAndroid's sources.

October 13th would be two weeks after launch, which would make sense. The delay would also allow Google to snag headlines for weeks, rather than making the phones available the day they're announced.

There's no word yet on availability, but it's safe to assume they'll start shipping around the start of November. That would be a full month after the new iPhones have gone on sale.
