According to information from Taiwanese sources, HTC has entered or are about to enter into a partnership agreement with Google to release a new tablet in the line of Nexus.
Recall that in 2012, Google has partnered with ASUS, which is the manufacturer of the 7-inch tablet Nexus first and second generations. These mini-computers are in fairly high popularity, due to good performance characteristics and reasonable price (from $ 200).
contrast, NTS attempts to gain a foothold in the tablet market have been unsuccessful because of the high cost of devices. So, which appeared in April 2011, the Flyer tablet cost $ 500 and was released in September of the same year with the support of computer Jetstream mobile fourth generation LTE and all offered for $ 850.
partnership with HTC Google theoretically allow not only to try again force in the tablet market, but also to improve the financial situation. On the characteristics of the gadget information, unfortunately, no. Reported only that the device will be assigned to class high-end. The role of the operating system, of course, play Android – possibly with proprietary add-HTC.
to requests to clarify the situation HTC traditionally responded: market rumors and speculation the company does not comment.
According to preliminary estimates, from January to March 2013 around the world will be shipped approximately 62.14 million tablets of different hardware and software platforms. This would correspond to a fall of 20.8% compared with the last quarter of the 2013th and increased by 10.9% compared with the first quarter last year.
