Under the hood, the upcoming Nexus phones will run Android Nougat out of the box. The Pixel and Pixel XL are rumored to be built by HTC with Snapdragon 820 chipset and 4GB of RAM.

The next Nexus Phone could be priced at $649 for 32 GB storage base model. This is considered pricey to some of the fans given the absence of waterproof feature. Furthermore, Pixel and Pixel XL may not have external storage for memory expansion.
