Before people get all excited about various Nexus 6 or 8 devices shown at Google I/O 2014, they should remember the fact that Google was rumored to can the Nexus project and replace it with Silver.

Android Silver handsets are expected to come to the market in early 2015 and LG is among the favourites to manufacture them. In the end Silver may not even be a series of phones, but rather a special software experience for Nexus 6, who knows? The device shown here is rounded at the top and bottom, it has a big upper side speaker and slightly curved volume keys. It also has a front camera, a very thin body and adopts a Snapdragon 805 processor and 3 GB of RAM.

The Silver phone uses a 5.1 inch QHD display and a 16 megapixel camera with OIS and 4K video capture. The back side design is totally fit for a Nexus, especially if you look at the last two models. The flash is also interesting, since it could be a Xenon one. The Android UI doesn’t look particularly changed, I have to say. What’s the selling point here, I wonder…
