not fully satisfied with the sales made to record the second model Nexus 7 , Google may have decided to focus on a slightly larger size for its upcoming tablet. Equipped with an 8-inch display, the new Nexus 8 is, according to the rumor reported today in the pages of the site DigiTimes, destined to arrive on the market in April. With regard to the phase of design and production, the Mountain View group would once again awarded to ASUS .

Use the conditional is a must, as it is located in front of an unconfirmed rumor (but not denied) in an official capacity. Regarding the sale price , the hypothesis currently most accepted is that could be around economic outlay required today for the second 7-inch model, therefore about 200-250 € for the cheaper version. Here is the statement of the source remained anonymous, which is part of the supply chain of hardware.

Google has already partnered with Asustek Computer to produce 7-inch tablet, launched in partnership in June 2012 and July 2013. Now Google has chosen the 8-inch size as the Nexus 7 third generation, not to clash with the competition of the 7-inch devices and smartphones with that of 5 and 6 inches.

The new model could therefore actually replace those launched in the past 7 and 10 inches. Farewell to the Nexus Nexus 7 and 10, in favor of only Nexus 8 ? Everything is possible. The recent reorganization of bigg regard to hardware manufacturers (Motorola’s sale to Lenovo with maintenance of the patent portfolio, the acquisition of Nest, etc..) Makes it difficult to formulate a reliable hypothesis on what will be the future of the group from the point of view of devices . By the end of the year should then also debut Nexus 6 , sixth-generation smartphone that according to some early rumors could be entrusted once again the South Korean company LG.
