I'm an avid Android fan. Having tried the superb performance of Huawei-built Android Nexus 6P last year, I expect no less from its successors.
The Nexus 6P, being the way it is, provided me with an Android experience par excellence. With two Nexus phones coming up next, the Marlin and Sailfish, I'd love to think that both of them will raise the bar higher for Android smartphones.
Several leaks have since revealed that both Nexus phones will be built by HTC.
With previews of how both the Marlin and Sailfish would look, speculations disclosed the possibility that both or either of them will be equipped with Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 821 CPU - rumored to be 10 percent faster than the Snapdragon 820 of LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7.
Along with their superfast CPUs, here are other reasons why holding out for the Nexus 2016 smartphones can be the best decision you'll ever have in a long while.
#1: Nexus Launcher - The Nexus Launcher, part of the new Android Nougat OS that is to be fully showcased by both Marlin and Sailfish, serves as a preview to next-generation's convention on Android phones. Essentially, a swipe-up (or arrow-click) "frosted glass" panel forms, alongside an updated Google Now launcher, characterizes the Nexus Launcher as per the latest leaks.
#2: Full virtual reality (VR) support - Virtual reality (VR) recently emerged as the next big thing for smartphones. 2016 is set to be the year when VR-capable Android phones will be produced at a far larger scale than before. Google's DayDream VR is set to become a key feature of both the Marlin and Sailfish, henceforth placing both of them within the sights of high demand once they're finally released.
#3: Greater value for money - Affordability and cutting-edge technology both have been defining characteristics of Nexus phones. Add to that the fact that Nexus phones run the Android OS in its purest form, and they end up cementing their reputation as among the best of their kind in the market. The Nexus 6P even served as an upgrade to the usual functional Nexus, making it essentially the best Android phone in the world. So expect no less from both the Marlin and Sailfish - although both are set to become more expensive, unparalleled upgrades such as a new Qualcomm processor, sharper imaging, and greater RAM and battery performance will make them worth every dollar.
