Did Google just leak its next-generation Nexus tablet?

Either Google’s art department purposely manipulated a image in the company’s latest Nexus 10 tablet, or Google just quietly revealed its next-generation 100 % pure Android slate.

As noted by a number of Android fan blogs on Monday, Google has updated its I/O conference website with a peculiar new image. In the photo, someone is tapping on a tablet that doesn’t quite look like anything we’ve seen to date.

The shape of the tablet and the placement of some buttons in fact looks like the Nexus 10 tablet, as some blogs have observed, but the device appears to be a bit smaller than the 10-inch Nexus and the bezels on the sides of the tablet are nowhere near as wide as they are on the Nexus 10.

Did Google’s art department intentionally manipulate a photo of the Nexus 10 so that it looks like a different device? Is this the Nexus 8 that Google is rumored by some to be planning to reveal at Google I/O on June 25th?

No person knows for certain right now, but we only have a few short weeks left until we find out.

The Sony Xperia Z2 Will Launch In The U.S. This Summer

The Xperia Z2 will be launched in the U.S. but not for several months. The launch is planned for "summer." A U.S. launch of the Xperia Compact Z1 is currently not on the books at all, we also learned.

The Z2 will be sold unlocked through Sony's online store. Companies have not been announced, and from what Sony told us, it seems talks are ongoing with carriers and nothing has been finalized yet.

Sony exposed both the Z2 smartphone and Z2 Tablet at Mobile World Congress a few months back. We recently spent some time with the pair and they are impressive kits. Both the phone and tablet are water-proof and while incredibly thin, feel more like the swanky HTC One M8 than the plasticy Samsung Galaxy S5. The Z2 tablet is now available in the U.S.

Yet as Sony indicated in late 2013, the company is not focusing on the US market. Historically, the company has not had much success in the U.S. The Z2 smartphone was released in select Asian markets in March and April. It’s hitting other markets including Canada in May. The U.S. is apparently at the bottom of the list.

And that’s a damn shame. The Z2 is a fantastic Android device.

Samsung Statements only a few Galaxy S5 cameras are defective

 The Samsung Galaxy S5 has been getting issues with its camera – namely, it stops working after a cryptic warning. Samsung has issued a report saying the issue affects only a very limited number of devices.

The company declined to specify an exact number, but apparently the problem was not confined to the US and Verizon, but affected a few other countries as well.

According to the report, the problem was caused by "complications" in the ROM, specifically in the parts responsible for the camera. Samsung has taken steps to reduce this problem reoccurring in newly made devices.

Samsung is expecting lower profits for the first quarter of this year than the same period in the year before. That would be a second quarter of lower profits in a row (Q4 2013 saw a 6% dip in operating profits compared to 2012).
