The company manufactured both the original Nexus 7 and the redesign of the gadget brought out earlier this year. The original version of the Nexus 10 was manufactured by Samsung, but Google opens up bidding to different manufacturing companies during planning stages of the Nexus devices. The new Nexus 10 will be released in time for the Christmas market and be aimed at families, according to reports. The first version of the Nexus 10 tablet earned praise from Telegraph Technology when it was released in November of last year. It was described as a decent, good-value device for watching films and reading books on, but one which failed to compete with the Apple iPad in terms of apps and additional features.

Films look stunning, although not as stunning as on smaller devices. With a quad core graphics processor and a dual core CPU, games too render quickly.” The 10-inch tablet was also described as the Nexus 7’s “slightly more awkward brother.” There has so far been no confirmation of any new features for the next version of the Google Nexus 10. Its predecessor came with a 2560x1600 display, 1.9 megapixel camera and at least 16GB of memory.
