There’s no shortage of Nexus rumours circulating the Internet at the moment, the latest of which addresses the rumoured Huawei Nexus smartphone – for anyone not up to date, there are rumoured to be two Nexus smartphones this year, one from Huawei and another from LG. This rumour, which is really more of a confirmation if true, comes allegedly from a Huawei employee working in the UK who, under the shroud of anonymity, confirmed to the International Business Times that Huawei is indeed making a Nexus smartphone and is in very close cahoots with Google. The rumour goes on to say that this is to strengthen Huawei’s standing not only with Google, but with the Western markets which Huawei has traditionally struggled to sell well in.
Unfortunately, the tip from the Huawei employee failed to confirm any details about the device itself, apart from its existence. What we’ve previously heard about the device is that it will be based on the eventual Huawei Ascend Mate 8, Huawei’s annual phablet device, which would make it a 5.7-inch phablet smartphone with a Quad HD display. This news is the closest we’ve got to a confirmation that a Huawei Nexus smartphone is actually happening, but we’ve still got several months – presumably till October – to find out whether any of this is true.
