During the Google Event that took place on 29th September, 2015, a number of devices and products were announced but for such occasions we often look forward to the official announcement of Google's latest mobile hardware set forward to usher in Google's latest mobile Operating System, Android. It's on such event every single year that we get to see the latest pure version of Android running on the first devices.
As the custom is, Google partners with leading mobile manufacturers that use it's Operating System to manufacture a new Nexus device that  use the latest version of Android first.
