Nexus 5

Even after two and a half years after its release Nexus 5 is one of the most popular devices Nexus . Unfortunately for its users, it was not in the list of devices for which it is proposed the first beta version of the upcoming operating system Android N. However, now there is a possibility that the Nexus 5 still receive the next update of Android, which is, of course, not It gives confidence that it will be so

Android N

As noted in the article« Google Testing Android N Preview For Nexus 5 “published resource the Bleg, Google, presumably, is testing Android N on the Nexus 5. the reason for this assumption is that the code associated with the Android N, appeared in Google repository for« hammerhead “devices, which is code-named LG Nexus devaysa 5.

Some code Nexus 5, as explained Petrovanom Bogdan (Bogdan Petrovan) in the published resource Android Authority note «Google appears to be testing N preview on Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013), but do not I get excited just yet », tagged« android-n-preview-1. ” Deeper study also showed that this tag is present and for the Asus Nexus 7 (2013) WiFi (flo) and Nexus 7 (2013) LTE (deb).

Note that this tag is present for all the Nexus devices, which are compatible with the beta version of the Android N has already been confirmed. It should be recalled that it is a Nexus 6, Nexus 9, Nexus 5X, 6P Nexus and Nexus Player. This tag is not available for older devices, including the Nexus 7 (2012) and Nexus 4.

It’s nice to believe that Google is quietly working to be a pleasant surprise for users Nexus 5, and Nexus 7 (2013) going to please their update to Android N. However, it may be that it is only desirable that never become a reality.

in the past, similar already happened. Google Nexus 4 are not included in the initial list of devices that will receive the update to Lollipop. Then, the company reported that the Nexus 4 was just missing and absent from this list by mistake. However, such a case in the past provides no guarantee that a pleasant surprise again this year.

It may be that Google simply checks how well Android N runs on older hardware, which is characterized by Nexus 5, assuming no update to provide future users of the operating system that is incredibly popular device. The company may be other reasons for conducting such testing is not associated with the plans to please the owners of Nexus 5 as a welcome upgrade to Android N.

Therefore, users of Nexus 5, and Nexus 7 (2013) is still too early to show joy. After all, the theoretical possibility that Android N ever become available for their devices, does not mean that it will be implemented in practice. And the only basis for assumptions considered is only the code, which was discussed above.

It should be noted that Android N Developer Preview is characterized not only innovation, but also some problems. As part of the beta program of the search giant offers easy installation of the evaluation version of its upcoming operating system. But given the potential instability of the test version, users need not to think twice about whether or not to install it on your main unit.

How important is it for users Nexus 5 to receive an upgrade to Android N?

Android N is likely to Nexus 5, and Nexus 7 (2013)
