If theres ever going to be a Nexus 6, it wont be made by LG. At least thats what one exec from the Korean company seems to think.
A Dutch publication has quoted Ken Hong, an LG communications director, as saying that he doesnt know anything about an LG Nexus 6 yet.
Given past release time frames, if the new Nexus is to arrive this fall (like both of its LG-made predecessors), then Hong should have been told about it by now.
Of course, theres also a chance that, for whatever reason, he wasnt kept in the loop by his superiors this time around and LG actually is working on a Nexus 6.
Things get a bit more complicated, though, when you factor in recent rumors that spoke about the Nexus programme being discontinued in favor of a broader Silver effort from Google. This would comprise of more devices per year (not just one as with the Nexus line), presumably from more than one manufacturer too.
At one point in the past LG was said to be making the first such Android Silver handset, though this was referred to as being the successor to the Nexus 6.
So will there be a Nexus 6? Its really tough to tell. Though if it will happen, its probably not going to be made by LG. On the other hand, the Korean company may be working with Google on a Silver smartphone, one which could debut next year.
