Andy Rubin, Google’s chief Android asked about future Nexus devices at a Google IO press conference:
Since the Nexus One phone, we’ve seen a spate of other Nexus-named devices, which Google is said to have a direct hand in helping build. These are reference devices that showcase the latest Android software and usually have high-end specs to match.
