Google Silver
The future of the Nexus line will soon be abandoned by Google, reports Tech Republic. Instead of a single line of phones representing Google's take on its open Android operating system, a new initiative called Google Android Silver will create a more standardized experience for Android users on several chosen lines of products.
These products will feature modern and more avant-garde devices with less bloatware and a stronger focus on Google apps. Reports also said that the Nexus 5 smartphone will be the final Nexus handset. It further stated that the tablet line will be discontinued after Google Nexus 10.
Google Android Silver will feature the mixed blessing of more modern and presumably costlier devices. It will run on the most modern versions of Android without the OEM modifications that cause significant variations in the user experience between different Android phone lines. OEM-specific software, often deemed "bloatware" that is difficult to remove without rooting the phone, will either be banned or be required to be removable without rooting.
