Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Update Rolling Out To Nexus 6 - What’s New, What’s Been Fixed And More

Google Nexus 7 2016 release is reportedly coming soon at the company's I/O Developers Conference next month. New rumors claimed that a miniature version of the device will be launched alongside the flagship smartphone.

It is not long ago since Apple introduced the iPhone Se, which is the company's device catering to the mid-range market. Android-based smartphones like Samsung, HTC, LG and Motorola offer miniature versions of their flagship devices.

According to Australia Network News, Google Nexus 2016 Mini will be released in May alongside the full-fledged handset. It is unknown which company will be in charge in making the mid-range handset. Last year, LG also helped the company and made the mid-range Nexus smartphone - Nexus 5X.

Google tried this trend by releasing Nexus 5X that has lower specs and features in comparison with Nexus 6P. There is a huge possibility that the Redmond-based tech giant will release another mid-range smartphone, but may change its strategy.

Some of the rumored Google Nexus 7 2016 features are: 7-inch screen display, NVIDIA Tegra X1 processor paired with 4GB of RAM, and Android N operating system.

Reports claimed that the Google Nexus 7 2016 will be a tablet or a phablet, and thanks to Android N OS, the device will have a premium build and revolutionary features optimized for maximum productivity. Reports added that the tablet will come with features thanks to pure Android N operating system. The tablet will be marketed to professionals and businesses, which productivity is of utmost importance.

Google's third party manufacturer is still unknown. Rumors point that it is Taiwanese manufacturer HTC's turn to make the next Nexus device. HTC teamed up with Google before and was in charged in making HTC Nexus 9 tablet.

However, there is still no official announcement from Google about the official release date and features of the rumored Google Nexus 2016.
