But unlike previous Nexus handsets, the HTC-made Marlin and Sailfish are expected to be faster than same year Android flagships. Moreover, both devices are tipped to feature the same internal configuration, meaning that the smaller phone won’t be inferior when it comes to overall performance.

While the SD 821 is said to be a higher version of the current-gen Snapdragon 820 processor, there are improvements in its architecture. It has a faster Kyro CPU, clocked at 2.4 GHz versus the SD 820's 2.2 GHz. In addition, there are also improvements and tweaks on the processes for the SoC, making the SD 821 more energy-efficient and deliver faster and better performance.

I like the build, if that's a legit picture. Looks a lot more comfortable to hold than my N6.

Hope they don't pull a nexus 6 and be too expensive

As I indicated in a different thread, I am completely way behind on Android phone technology.
What is the difference between Google Nexus 6P (assuming this is the latest phone) and HTC Google Nexus phone?
Does Google Nexus 6P get faster software updates since it is a Google exclusive?

Any word on price points for the new phones and when they will drop the price on the 6p?

Google reportedly dropping the Nexus brand name from its phones
Downsizing the screen size once again, no front speakers, SD820 not the 821...I think I am out on the Nex-err, Google phones this year.

Google’s newest smartphones won’t be Nexus devices after all. According to Android Central, Google is dropping the Nexus branding with its two upcoming, HTC-made smartphones. Instead, the company is expected to market the devices under a different name and to lean heavily on the Google brand in the process.
This news jibes with recent rumors surrounding the upcoming devices, codenamed "Marlin" and "Sailfish." Android Police reported earlier this month that Google may strip the Nexus name from the phones and replace it with a "G" logo. It’s unclear what direction the company will take, as it has spent years fashioning the Nexus brand as a hardware entity while Google has reserved its own name for software services. We do know the two devices will come in 5-inch and 5.5-inch screen sizes, representing a small downsize from the current 5X and 6P.
