Google, the Nexus will come a entry-level $ 100? - Mobileblog.it (Blog)

Google is working on the next generation of its devices Nexus , which presumably still present the usual good relationship between features and price. The rumor came from China in recent days even seem to expand the concept: Mountain View are thinking of a new Nexus entry-level, or at most mid-range, however cheap .

The new Android smartphone should take advantage of the low price of the MediaTek chip and cost no more than $ 100 . The rest is just the processor MediaTek ‘s “secret ingredient” of many Asian quad-core devices at low cost.

In this regard, one of the best examples is the popular Xiaomi Red Rice (also known as Hongmi ) that the production costs 85 dollars and is sold in China for the equivalent of $ 130. The Xiaomi smartphone integrates a quad-core MediaTek MT6589 which accounts for about 20% (ie $ 17) in the manufacturing cost.

Based on the rumors, the Nexus any low-end does not, however, replace the model (so far only) top of the range. So we will have two smartphones Nexus in the near future? Moreover it seems that even the tablet is coming a new model that will add to the classic 7:10.

The new Nexus could be Google’s answer to Amazon , the smartphone which should see the light in June. The Amazon phone might arrive on the market in the fall and adopt an operating system derived from Android, as is currently the case for the Kindle Fire tablet.

Google’s move then, if confirmed, could make sense. The new MediaTek chips seem to have enough power to provide a good user experience at a price affordable and may contribute to redefining the entire category, leaving only the higher models feature special or the use of materials.
