Google announced their brand devices, Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P, which pretty decent harder configuration and looking at that we can say that the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950XL specs (almost confirmed) now look at par with them. While Google will start selling the new devices in 3-4 weeks of time, New Lumais will be announced on October 6th.
So how do the Lumias and Nexus stand against each other? Lets Find out in the specs comparison below:

Two things Nexus have their advantages on. First they come with Snapdragon 810 which an improved version of 808, and second they have aluminium body compared to Lumai’s polycarbonate. This will not generate less heat, but it will dissipate even faster. When it comes to camera, I expect Lumia 950 and XL to have much better compare compared to the Nexus, specially with 950Xl with Triple LED..its going to exciting. Lastly, the pricing for the Nexus are pretty good, I really doubt if the Lumias will be so aggressively priced. Rest of things will actually matter, and makes sense when we actually review the devices.
What do you think about it?
