Google launched two new Nexus smartphones last year but did not release a tablet. This could change this year as Google is expected to launch successor for the Nexus 7 tablet.
Popular tipster Evan Blass aka @evleaks has revealed that, Google and Huawei are working on a 7-inch tablet that is slated to be released by the end of 2016. He said that the tablet could sport a 4GB RAM but did not offer any other details. It is speculated that the tablet will be called as Huawei 7P as the company recently filed for the trademark earlier this year. A rumor in December had also talked about the possibility of Huawei making the Nexus 7 tablet in 2016.
