Huawei is rumored to be making a new 8" Nexus (or I guess Pixel) tablet, might be released early next year. Though if it's Pixel it probably won't be as inexpensive unfortunately.

It's a small, simple $35 dongle for streaming video on your TV or music on a set of speakers. Probably one of their most successful hardware products.

Most of the ones I listed were only just announced FWIW (and they aquired Nest a few years ago), but the reviews for the Pixel phone have been crazy good:

Next phone will likely not be a Samsung. I like the Pixel. Virtually no bloatware sounds awesome to me.

I uploaded thousands of pictures in a horrible process that also cut down their size, then when i realized how shit this cloud solution was I quit but fownloading the images was even more of a hassle as you could only do it in dmall installments or some shit, absolute nightmare.

Google doesn't make products

What's so hard to understand? What, of any of those, has google manufactured? Even the most supposedly "made by Google" product, the pixel phones, are made by HTC.

Google designs software. They do not make products. DERP.

(I have owned several products manufactured by partners for Google: Nexus 7 2013 tablet, a chromecast, and a Nexus 5x. All are great! None are "made" by Google, you fucking fop.)

Post by: Tasty on October 19, 2016, 05:59:01 PM: HTC is the contract manufacturer for the Pixel in the same way Foxconn is for Apple products. Guess they don't make anything either. :idont
