The collaboration has actually produced 2 seriously well-known Android tablets utilizing a 7-inch display, the report declared last year's second-generation Nexus 7 offered less than 3 million devices by the end of 2013.

Those sales data are being blamed on "extreme rate competitors" in the 7-inch tablet market, which is normally more price-sensitive than 10-inch designs such as Apple's iPad Air.

According to the unnamed sources, an nexus 8 inch tablet likewise has the prospective to provide an one-upmanship versus a growing section of bigger smartphones.
