We’ve got some more rumours for your Thursday morning and this one is a juicy one. Again, these are just rumours so take them as such! Now back to the story…
Some Korean forums have been abuzz about the next generation of Nexus devices. Apparently there will be both a Nexus 5 and Nexus 7.7 coming out this year. Here’s the rumoured specs for each:
Nexus 5
- Made by LG
- 5″ 1080p Display
- NVIDIA Tegra 4
- 2GB RAM
- 13MP Camera
- 3MP Front Facing Camera
- 8GB or 16GB Internal Storage
- Pricing is supposed to be on par with the current Nexus 4
Nexus 7.7
- Made by LG
- 7.7″ 1920×1200 Resolution Display
- NVIDIA Tegra 4
- 8GB Internal Storage
- HD Camera (Front and Back)
I’m really not sure what to make of these rumours. Is Google really going to go with LG again? Especially in the midst of this ongoing shortage of the Nexus 4. Are they abandoning Asus for the tablet for LG who has had no success in the tablet market? And would they really go with 8GB and 16GB again when customers have continually sought for additional storage?
Don’t get me wrong, these devices look great on paper, but I’m not to sure if these rumour will come into fruition. Plus, I’m really hoping for a Nexus program to be born where all manufacturers have a go at devices each year.
