"Bullhead" selfie reveals a 5MP front-facing camera for the Nexus 5 (2015)
A Google employee who works in the Quality Assurance department of the company, apparently took a selfie and posted it on Google+. According to the Exif data, the device employed for the photo is listed as "Bullhead." That happens to be the code name for the Nexus 5 (2015). The Exif data also reveals that the device used to snap the selfie is made by LG.

The data shows that the front-facing camera on the Nexus 5 (2015) will be a 5MP snapper (1944 × 2592) with an aperture of f/2.0. That will allow the camera to take quality photos even under less than optimal low-light conditions.

Exif data can be faked, so we do suggest that you use your skeptical eye for this story. As you can see, the image is blurred to protect the identity of the Google employee who shot the selfie. Coordinates shown with the data reveal that the photo was snapped at the Googleplex in Mountain View.

Last week, a number of leaked images revealed the design of the 5.2-inch Nexus (2015), including the protruding rear camera hump. If Google adheres to tradition, the phone should be introduced sometime in the second half of October.


Thanks for the tip!
