so I was reading here Google Nexus Discontinued, Report Claims | BGR that Google may discontinue the nexus line. I personally hope they do not, unless they have something up their sleeve ala moto being the new "nexus" Thoughts?
Sounds like click bait
This could change tomorrow, but so far Google has treated Motorola the same as they treat every other OEM, and I don't see them changing that relationship since it seems to be working so well. And as far as subsidizing devices, the costs would be around the same whether Motorola manufactured it, or Samsung, LG, HTC, Sony, whoever.
It did say 2015 right? Implying there will be another one this year? Isn't that like saying there may not be an iphone 6s? Would Apple even know that so far in advance? Does Google?
well...i think it was clear that at some point Motorola would be the next to produce a Nexus device!
Moto X and Moto G i believe are like "betas"...
and the other OEMs have their Google Play Editions too...personally, i like expanding the stock experience to more phones!
sent from my Moto G <3
In the absence of a Nexus line, phones like the Moto X will become the new stock Android. There is nothing else that will be more stock.I think moto already is essentially making nexus devices just without the name. They have near stock experience and just enough "enhancements" to really add to the core OS, and also get nearly nexus like updates.
Not if Motorola is no longer part of Google.I think Moto Phones will become the new version of the Nexus line. The Moto X proves they can do it just fine now.
