Motorola rumoured to be working on a 5.9-inch Nexus smartphone

There have been a lot of rumours about Nexus devices lately but we are yet to get a clear picture of what to expect later this year and now Android Police has thrown in a new tidbit – Motorola Nexus smartphone.

According to a report in Android Police, Motorola is working with Google to release the next Nexus smartphone. Carrying the codename “Shamu,” the smartphone reportedly sports a 5.9-inch display, which is slightly out of line for a Nexus smartphone.

Among other hardware details that are known right now, this Motorola smartphone will come with a fingerprint sensor. There is no word on other specifications but Android Police does state that the phone could be released in November along with the final iteration of Android L.

As not many details are available at this point, we are taking this with a pinch of salt. Also, I personally can’t digest the whole giant Nexus smartphone thing as I don’t see Google going more than 5.1 or 5.2-inches with the next Nexus smartphone. Anyways, stranger things have happened.
