We were well aware that the end of October was shaping up to be a tad on the mental side, but this story suggests it’ll be crazier than even we’d imagined.
We’re being told that next Monday (same date as the Windows Phone 8 launch, incidentally), Google will lift the lid on not one, not two, but three new Nexus devices.
That’s the story according to an anonymous source of The Next Web “with knowledge of Google’s plans”.
First up, we have the LG Nexus 4, essentially an LG Optimus G in Samsung Galaxy Nexus-style clothing. LG Nexus 4 specs include a quad-core Qualcomm APQ8064 Snapdragon processor clocked at 1.5GHz, 2GB of RAM, an 8MP rear camera, and a 2,100mAh battery.
Next, we have the refreshed Asus-built Google Nexus 7 with 32GB storage (sound familiar?), and a second variant that cranks the storage while throwing in HSPA+ connectivity for data on the move.
Finally, as we were saying yesterday, there’s the Samsung-built Nexus 10, a 10in tablet with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 (PPI just over 300). Other Nexus 10 specs remain a mystery, though it’s expected to rock Android 4.2.
Speaking of Android 4.2, it’s tipped to introduce a PlayStore widget, and ‘Tablet Sharing’ – welcoming multiple unique user profiles. Yeah, that’s why Android tablets aren’t doing so well. Ahem.
A week today, mes amis. ‘Citing.
