The possibility that Google Launching a tablet around 8 inches seems to be generating great expectations and there is no doubt that a new format would give a breath of fresh air to the Nexus range, after the Nexus 7 formula lagged a bit in the past 2013. New information about this hypothetical tablet arrives from Cnet, some of them confirm what we already knew and others provide new information about its manufacturer and moment of launch.
We are sure that many users were expecting the arrival of a Nexus 8 over the past year, and yet they saw their hopes fade when the LG G Pad 8.3 Google Edition. However, we also believe that those in Mountain View have taken good note of the wishes of the public and are working hard to offer a tablet of about 9 inches and high performance with which to satisfy all those who were frustrated in 2013.
8,9 inches for about 300 euros
In information that today publishes Cnet, and that comes from the always reliable Rhoda Alexander (IHS Technology), we see some of the data that we previously had confirmed. The Nexus 8 would actually have 8,9 inches y an approximate price of $300, but there are also a couple of details that are worth paying special attention to.
HTC. When the river sounds…
It is not the first time that the name of this company comes to light as a possible manufacturer of a Google tablet for 2014. The truth is that Taiwanese go through a difficult financial trance and participating in the Nexus family in this way would give them an important boost. In addition, the level of quality achieved with the HTC One makes them worthy of the trust of Mountain View, without a doubt.
Will we have to wait for October?
Although previously it had been speculated with the possibility that the Nexus 8 saw the light during Google I / O, the source managed by Cnet foresees a launch at the end of the year: “mass production will start in July or August”. On the other hand, there is not much information about a third generation of the Nexus 7Although Alexander does believe there will be a 2014 edition.
