LG Nexus 4 likely to be star at Google event on 29 October
Google has issued invites to a shindig at the end of the month, where the search giant is expected to reveal the latest Nexus phone — the hotly tipped LG Nexus 4.
The New York-based event, which kicks off at 10am (2pm UK time), on 29 October, has an invite that shows a colourful Big Apple skyline and the text, “The playground is open” enclosed within a Google search box.
The event will take place mere hours ahead of the Windows Phone 8 launch, in what’s likely a brazen attempt to purloin Microsoft’s thunder, or a ploy to kill off technology journalists by forcing them to type themselves to death.
While Google could be revealing anything in theory, it’s reckoned that the bash will centre on Android, including news on updates to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and — possibly — a glimpse at one or more new devices.
