LG set to manufacture Google Nexus Tablet

LG will apparently manufacture Google’s Android 3.0-powered Nexus Tablet

This will bring Google’s dealing to three manufacturers now. HTC built its first Nexus One handset, Samsung did the Nexus S and now LG will take on building responsibilities for the Nexus Tablet.LG has been reportedly confirmed as the company that will produce Google’s first ever tablet device – the Android 3.0-powered Nexus Tablet.

The news comes via Mobile Review, who claims LG has been tasked with producing Google’s first Android 3.0-powered Nexus Tablet.

At present, details are pretty thin on the ground, but Mobile Review claims that the device will be used as Google’s base for development, that it will run on Android 3.0 and should be ready in ‘mid-autumn.’

Having said that, the Nexus Tablet could just be a device that will be used internally at Google for developing future iterations of Android 3.0.

Nevertheless, the Nexus S has gone on to become pretty popular, so maybe a dedicated Google tablet isn’t entirely out of the question.

So what can we expect from the Nexus Tablet? At present it’s difficult to say, but if we had to hazard a guess we’d expect to see a dual core processor, NFC, HD display (probably Super AMOLED), potentially a 3D-enabled, lots of storage, dual cameras and 1GB of RAM.

This, at least, would bring the tablet in line with the competition.

We’re waiting with baited breath for more news on this one. Watch this space.
