We’ve heard rumours that have said Chinese manufacturer, Huawei, will be the next Nexus smartphone manufacturer, and today we get another rumour to strengthen the case for that. Specifically, the rumour comes from Weibo page of Chinese analyst firm, Pan Jiutang, and alleges that this Huawei Nexus smartphone will have a 5.7-inch Quad HD display and be powered by a Snapdragon 810 processor.
Both of these things would seem very logical for a 2015 flagship device, however a few things stick out like a sore thumb. Huawei so far has not favoured Quad HD displays, waving them off and using 1080p displays instead. Furthermore, Huawei likes to use its own Kirin processors, and these two facts suggest that either Google has demanded that these parts be used in the manufacture of said Nexus device, or the rumour could be untrue. Or maybe it’s somewhere inbetween these two options. Whatever is the truth, Google I/O isn’t too far away now, so perhaps we’ll find out something there in a month’s time.
