Nexus 10 2 Release Date Rumors: New 10-Inch Google Tablet Arriving On 3rd Quarter Of 2014 Or Earlier? HTC To Manufacture The Device?
Nexus 10 2 release date rumors continue to heighten.
According to a previous post on International Business Times, the Nexus 10 2 release date might be set for third quarter of 2014. And aside from revealing an alleged Nexus 10 2 release date, the post also noted that HTC might be the one to take the helm for the production of the upcoming tablet.
The publication site, citing Focus Taiwan, wrote that the Taiwanese tech manufacturer has " won the bid for manufacturing a "high end" Google Nexus tablet, which is bound to arrive in Q3 2014."
However, since everything about Nexus 10 release date remains a rumor, it is still unclear whether this "high-end" Nexus tablet will be Google's 2nd-generation full-sized tablet or an entirely a new model for an Android slate.
Most recently, Nexus 10 2 release date rumors suggested that the arrival of the Google tablet may happen soon. This is because a number of retailers, including eBay and Amazon previously offered the original Nexus 10 2 for a discounted price.
Moreover, on a separate post from IB Times, it was reported that Nexus 10 2 release date may happen in June 2014. Particularly, Nexus 10 2 release date may be set for during Google's I/O Developer Conference, happening in San Francisco on June 25 - 26.
Grapevines also hinted that Google will release a new OS, currently dubbed as Android 5.0, which will feature new software called Babel/Babble. Accordingly, Babel is the "company's cross platform integration service that was previously in beta and attempts to merge all of your social chat services into one."
As for the specs, Nexus 10 2 is expected to be equipped with 10.1 inch screen with a resolution display of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Furthermore, as posted on BREATHE Cast, the tablet may feature the newest Qualcomm Snapdragon processor or the NVIDIA Tegra 4, combined with a powerful 3 GB RAM.
