Google Nexus 5|
The divorce between LG and Google was finally pronounced. LG announced that it would not develop the next Google device, the Nexus 5. This probably means the end of the Nexus range, launched
in 2010 by HTC. Unless Samsung takes over?
"The company has no plan provided regarding the production of another Nexus device," said Won Kim, vice president of LG Mobile Europe, in an interview, reports Mashable. It is official, LG will not produce the next Nexus smartphone range for Google. The reason? Probably the South Korean firm has neither the desire nor the need. "The Nexus 4 met with great success, despite production problem and we have a very good relationship with Google. However, we do not need a new successful marketing of this magnitude," added Won Kim. In addition, the company said none of its future products will Editions "Google", that is to say, embedding a rough version of Android, unless you have the owner of LG software. Korean brand will therefore not like Samsung. This was announced at the I / O conference, the release of a Galaxy S4 Android, but without pre-installed software version of Samsung.
No Nexus 5, but a white Nexus 4
In contrast, the output of a Nexus 4 white version, developed by LG is imminent. The terminal, which the official photos have already appeared, spell the end of Nexus line. However, LG does not preclude a new collaboration with Google in the future. For now, LG plans to equip the next smartphones and tablets Windows 8 or Mozilla Firefox OS, PCWorld advance. So far, the Nexus range embarked Android without custom manufacturer overlay. In 2010, HTC has produced the first device, the Nexus One. The following two smartphones, the Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus have been developed by Samsung. According Generation NT, the South Korean firm may be better able to take over, although no announcement has yet been made in this direction.
