Is LG working on a Nexus tablet?

Nexus 10 optimized apps

The arrival of the next Google tablet remains unknown. It seemed like the developer conference Google I/O that was held in June in San Francisco could be the chosen place and date, but it was not. One thing seemed clear the weeks before this event, HTC would be the manufacturer and the model would be 8,9 inches. To everyone's surprise, new records have been found that support the existence of a Nexus tablet, of unknown size manufactured by LG.

Those from Mountain View played for a time to be distracted with the possibility of presenting a new tablet at Google I / O. In the end it was not like that, and the Nexus 8 or Nexus 9, both unconfirmed names referring to the same 8,9-inch model, still do not make an appearance. According to rumors that have emerged in recent months, in addition to the mentioned screen size, the device would have a Tegra K1 processor and it would be made by HTC, a new partner with whom Google sought to give a twist to the design of its previous models.

A few days ago, we again had evidence of the existence of the Nexus 8 it was about records on the web of import / export Zauba where reference was made to a prototype of this tablet (similar to Nexus 7 as the description added) that had been sent from India to the United States. These shipments were dated June 30, that is, very recently.

Hoping that there might be something else that was not discovered in these records, the keepers of TechTastic They delved into the Zauba database, searching through a multitude of similar documents until they found what they were looking for, or perhaps it is not what they expected to find, but without a doubt, it is an important find. A new shipment, this time destined for the United Arab Emirates, refers to a Nexus tablet made by LG!

The South Korean company has been one of Google's main partners In recent years, being those in charge of developing terminals as successful as the Nexus 5. In their day, they were the favorites to also manufacture the company's new tablet models, but little by little the options were diluted, choosing as we said to HTC. The date of this shipment is 4 June, taking the filtration as valid (there is always a risk that it is a manipulation), the idea that surrounds everyone's head is that it is a different tablet, perhaps a second generation Nexus 10, although we already told you that I had some reasons not to launch a successor to this tablet that it has not achieved the success they hoped for.
