Coming soon: Google Nexus 8

With Google’s I/O conference scheduled for late June, could we see a new Nexus tablet and new Android?

The Nexus 8 is set to be Google’s next new Android tablet. It will follow on from the Nexus 7, which is still one of the best tablets around, and could be here within the next few months.

Release date

The Nexus 8 release date is somewhat up in the air, with initial rumours citing an unnamed Dublin-based Google employee and suggesting the Nexus 8 would be announced in July, not at Google’s forthcoming I/O developer conference.
