For example, earlier in the network appeared rumors that the Sailfish is made of plastic with glass insert, while Marlin body is metal, but also with a glass inset on the back of the case.

this year, Google Android-phones can not come out under the name «Nexus». The users will not be easy to get used to the fact that the name that is used for six years, Google smartphone, rooted in the past. Although the name of the Network «Nexus» is widely used for those devices, which are prepared by HTC, instead of the usual name of Google may use other brand. However, how will be called the new phones, currently there are no assumptions.
It is reported by the resource Android Central with the reference to “a few people close to Google’s plans ».
If this rebranding comes true, it will be the” end of the era of the Nexus », which was launched Nexus One in December 2009 and lasted until 2015, when they were presented Nexus 6P and 5X.
