While Google I/O had some very big announcements this year, there were some missing elements tot he Android party. Some that were expected but wind up being no shows. Namely new Nexus hardware (the Galaxy S4 running pure Android doesn’t count) and a new version of Android. But this can all change in a matter of weeks according to Taylor Wimberly over at Android And Me.
He has actually held the Ivory-colored Nexus 4 in hand and mentioned that it is exactly the same as the Black one, no additional storage or LTE on-board. Bummer. Alongside of the Nexus w/ a new paint job is the elusive Android 4.3 update. No one knows really anything about the new version of the green robot. Other than word of it capable of using low-energy Bluetooth Smart.
Both hardware and software is said to launch on June 10th. The White Nexus 4 preloaded w/ the new OS would be available on the Google Play Store while the software would be available to the current stable of Nexus devices along with some of the older ones.
If and when this comes into fruition, who’s buying one?
