If you go to play.google.com, (not the Play Store app on an Android device), the following image will appear on the home page.

The laptop is definitely a Chromebook, and the tablet looks like a Motorola Xoom, but I noticed some differences between the smartphone in the picture and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. If you look at the comparison of the two, the Galaxy Nexus (left) has a curved top, while the mystery phone (right) has a flat top. There are also some other minor differences. The distinctive similarities between the two, on the other hand, lead me to believe the mystery phone is also from Samsung.

With the likely release date of the next Nexus phone(s), this may very well be a picture of the next Nexus phone. Any thoughts?

EDIT: I found another picture, found on http://www.android.com/. Click on "Magazines and TV Shows". There's another picture that shows a tablet that has Jelly Bean (so it must be a Google device). It looks like a 7" tablet but it can't be the Nexus 7 because the top is more curved and it doesn't have a camera. Again, it looks pretty similar, but different enough to be a different tab. What do you think?

I'm looking forward to the next rendition of the Nexus phone as much as anyone, but I still think you are reaching on this one.



:confused:
 
You can bet Apple will sue them over this one... cut the bottom of this "nexus" off and it looks identical to an iPhone... hopefully they patented the design so Apple loses the case if they sue.

you pics dont work but the front facing camera is on the left side in that picture and on the gnex its the right
The pictures should work now. And if you look more closely at the landscape-mode image of the phone, the camera is on the right, because the image is strangely flipped (you can see that by looking at the software keys). A more accurate picture would be the one next to the Galaxy Nexus picture.

They look the same to me.. Sigh, was hoping for more than this.
Well, if you look closely, the top of the mystery phone is slightly less curved, and the software keys are slightly closer to the bottom of the phone. I though it was interesting, that's all. I actually am hoping what I said isn't true, because this phone looks too similar. Sorry :-/
