Techies are gearing up for Google's venture in to the phablet market and their release of the highly-anticipated Nexus 6 device, which is set to be manufactured by Motorola.

Although pre-orders for the Nexus 6 will officially start on Oct. 29, Google has yet to reveal the precise shipping dates of the latest gadget. It is being speculated that the Nexus 6 device will hit the shelves in the retail stores sometime in November.

On the other hand, the Galaxy note 4 will be available from nearly all major U.S. network carriers starting Sunday, Oct. 19.
