Google Partners With HTC For Latest Nexus Tablet

Posted by samzenpus on from the team-up dept.

Rambo Tribble writes The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Google is partnering with HTC for its upcoming 9-inch Nexus tablet. Shunning larger manufacturers like Samsung, speculation is that Google is trying to mitigate the effects of market dominance by one firm. When asked for comment, a Google spokesperson only responded, "There's room for many partners to do well and to innovate with Android."

    Google Nexus products so far:

    1 by HTC
    3 by Samsung
    2 by LG
    2 by Asus

    This is hardly a new thing.

    Anytime I run desktop software on my phone it seems to be very buggy no matter who the manufacturer is.
