Unveiled: The Nexus 5X packs a 12.3-megapixel rear camera with laser focus and an octa-core processor.

Google's new 5.2in display smartphone will be going on sale before the end of the month.

Unveiled at a special event at the start of October, the Nexus 5X is built by LG and packs a host of flagship internal components, including a 12.3-megapixel rear camera with laser focus and a monster octa-core processor into a very affordable form.

Despite boasting a fingerprint sensor, the very latest version of Android – Marshmallow – and a fast-charging battery, the 32GB version will retail for just US$379 (RM1,585) from the Google Play Store while the 64GB version costs US$429 (RM1,970). The handset will be available initially in a choice of white or black but a mint green version is also expected to go on sale before the holiday season gets into full swing. — AFP Relaxnews
