Google to unveil its next Nexus devices on 29 September

Google scheduled an event for 29 September which is expected to see the unveiling of its next Nexus devices, as well as marking the release of its latest Android platform. The event is billed to hold in San Francisco.

Google isn’t always predictable, as its recent decision to split its divisions under ‘Alphabet’ showed, but speculation surrounding new Google hardware has been palpable.

The Nexus brand has proved popular in the past because it runs with a pure form of Android and is optimized for Google’s mobile software, while devices are also usually fairly inexpensive, but Google doesn’t manufacture the phones itself.

LG previously created the Nexus 5X and and Nexus 6P phones, but Huawei a growing force in the global smartphone race hasn’t ever worked on the project. It’s speculated that LG is working on a regular sized smartphone, with Huawei contracted to develop a larger handset.

According to Droid Life, the smartphones will be called Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P respectively.
