The pre-registration page also revealed the official specs for the Nexus 5.

The listed specifications included a 4.95-inch 1920x1080 display at 445 ppi, a 1.3-megapixel front facing camera, an 8-megapixel rear shooter, a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 16GB or 32GB of internal storage, 2GB RAM, micro USB, SlimPort enabled, dual-microphones, ceramic power and volume buttons, and Android 4.4 KitKat right out of the box.
