Speculations that Google Nexus 2016 release date is coming soon as Nexus 5X received another set of new discounts from retailers.
The 16GB Nexus 5X is available in Amazon for $299 inclusive of shipping, which is a big discount since the original price of the device is $349.
Newegg's eBay Store offers the Nexus 5X for $250 only. The white version is offered at this price point, but is currently out of stock. However, the charcoal black is still available but for a slightly higher price.
This is not the first time that Nexus 5X received generous discounts. Nexus 5X were offered at a lesser price for quite some time. Discounts often hinted that a new device is coming. Most of the time, when retailers offer deals and discounts mean that they want to exhaust the remaining inventory of the smartphone as it will be less popular when a new handset appears in the market.
Meanwhile, Whispers claimed that Google will tap on Taiwanese manufacturer HTC to be in-charged of Google Nexus 2016 release. New rumors are saying that HTC will make two Nexus smartphones this year. However, Google is probably making a mistake this year hiring HTC to take the helm.
There are wild rumors that Google is seeking independence from its partners and will manufacture its own devices like Apple. This will eliminate costs from hiring another company.
Google Nexus 2016 release is rumored to happen in May, the earliest, and October, the latest. Other rumors purported that Google will use its annual I/O Developers' Conference as its launching platform for the device.
Rumors claim that Google Nexus 2016 will pack its same old 7-inch screen display. It will be powered by Huawei's homegrown processor Kirin 950 chipset or NVIDIA Tegra X1 processor paired with 2GB of RAM.
The tablet will surely run with the upcoming Android N operating system. The dessert name of the OS is still unknown, but Nougat and Nutella are some of the candidates.
There is still no official announcement from Google about the official release date and features of the rumored Google Nexus 2016.
