Nexus 10 2 Release Date Rumors: Google To Launch Its HTC-Manufactured 10-Inch Android Tablet In Barcelona On February 24 During MWC 2014?
Nexus 10 2 release date rumors continue to surface online.
According to a recent post on International Business Time about the Nexus 10 2 release date, the 2nd-generation full-sized Google tablet might be available on or before the Mobile World Congress or MWC 2014.
Citing Android Origin, the post mentioned that the Google Nexus 10 2 release date can be expected to happen during the first quarter of the year. Moreover, there is a strong possibility that the Nexus 10 2 release date will be scheduled ahead of the Mobile World Congress this year. MWC 2014 is happening on February 24 in Barcelona, Spain.
Furthermore, recent grapevines about Nexus 10 2 release date suggest that HTC is the company in-charged to handle the creation of the 2nd-gen Google tablet. Reportedly, the Taiwanese tech manufacturer won the bid to produce the new full sized-Google tablet. Meanwhile, a post on Digitimes stated that Google approached the HTC One maker to develop the tablet.
The reports suggesting that Google Nexus 10 2 release date might be set as early as this month contradicts previous reports about the launch schedule of the tablet. Nexus 10 2 release date was expected to happen last year but 2013 had already passed and Google has not yet released a new 10-inch tablet in the market. This made the mobile industry speculate that the Nexus 10 release date might be cancelled or at least delayed later this year.
One of the reasons that emerged why Nexus 10 2 release date has been delayed is that Google is now focusing on the successor of its flagship smartphone, the Nexus 5. Reportedly, next-gen smatphone, Nexus 6i is set to arrive earlier than expected.
As for the specs of the device, Google Nexus 10 2 might be equipped with a 10.1-inch screen with Corning Gorilla Glass 3.The resolution will be 2560 x 1600p. For the processor, Nexus 10 2 may use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset clocked at 2.3 GHz. There is also a possibility that its processor will be the nVidia Tegra 4. Also, Nexus 10 2 can be packed with 3 GB RAM and Adreno 330 GPU, as posted on Android Origin. Primary camera could be 8MP, while the front camera might get a 2.1MP lens.
