The Nexus 5x will be unveiled soon and we’re going to bet there will be absolutely nothing surprising about it. After showing the world leaked press renders of the upcoming Nexus 6P smartphone earlier on Wednesday, Android Police came back hours later to show off leaked press renders of the Nexus 5X as well.

FROM EARLIER: In pictures: iPhone 6s is the biggest ‘S’ upgrade yet

This photo is the most interesting one because it shows us the Nexus 5X will be coming in at least three different colors — black, white and a light aqua color:

You can see the device’s fingerprint scanner on the rear of the phone, located right under its camera lens. Having fingerprint scanners on the rear of the device is a nifty way of adding fingerprint scanning technology without the need for a having a physical home button that will take up precious screen real estate.

From a specs perspective, we expect the Nexus 5X will feature a 5.2-inch 1080p display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, a 12.3-megapixel rear-facing camera, a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, 2GB of RAM, a 2700 mAh battery and Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
