After three successful joint projects, South Korean tech company LG Electronics allegedly confirmed that it will no longer make the next generation of Google Nexus smartphone. This will give other companies a chance to work with the software giant.

LG took the helm and produced the Nexus 4, Nexus 5 and Nexus 5X, which are all successful based on sales. This year may not be the same. Google work with third party mobile manufacturers to make the devices packed with pure Android OS.

Although it is still unknown which company Google will work with next. Whispers claimed that Google will tap on Taiwanese manufacturer HTC to be in-charged of Google Nexus 2016 release. HTC was in charge of the Nexus 9 tablet, which garnered positive reviews. New rumors are saying that HTC will make two Nexus smartphones this year.

However, there are rumors that Google is seeking independence from its partners and will manufacture its own devices like Apple. This will eliminate costs from hiring another company.

Google Nexus 2016 release is rumored to happen in May, the earliest, and October, the latest. Other rumors purported that Google will use its annual I/O Developers' Conference as its launching platform for the device.

Meanwhile, Google Nexus 2016 will pack its same old 7-inch screen display. It will be powered by Huawei's homegrown processor Kirin 950 chipset or NVIDIA Tegra X1 processor paired with 2GB of RAM.

The tablet will surely run with the upcoming Android N operating system. The dessert name of the OS is still unknown, but Nougat and Nutella are some of the candidates.

Meanwhile, there is still no official announcement from Google about the official release date and features of the rumored Google Nexus 2016.
