Possible Nexus 9 image leaked
With HTC and Google’s Nexus 9 passing through FCC earlier, we now have what definitely looks like the back of the Nexus 9 tablet supposedly launching sometime later this month thanks to upleaks. The device looks very similar to the design of the earlier 2013 Nexus 7 and Nexus 5, with a dark grey matte plastic back and vertical Nexus logo.
The Nexus 9 is rumored to carry NVIDIA’s powerful new Tegra K1 “Denver” 64-bit CPU, taking full advantage of Android L’s support for 64-bit hardware. The tablet is also expected to carry either 3GB or 4GB of RAM, a 2K resolution screen, front-facing speakers and a decent rear-facing camera by the looks of the picture.
The Nexus rumor-mill is in full gear right now, stay tuned as we find out more.

Leaked image purportedly shows HTC’s Nexus 9 tablet
A new image from @upleaks, along with an apparent trip through the FCC has provided solid evidence that Google is set to release the Nexus 9 tablet built by HTC. The pic clearly shows Nexus and HTC branding on the back, which appears to be made of some kind of grippy, Nexus 5-like plastic material. In addition, an HTC tablet matching recent Nexus 9 rumors just passed through the FCC in a WiFi-only variant, though a 4G model is also a given. To top it off, an NVIDIA lawsuit last month revealed that HTC would build a Nexus tablet that will have a Tegra chip, likely a 64-bit K1. Google may be prepping the Nexus 9 (and possibly a rumored Nexus 6 handset) to be the first devices to get Android L, which supports 64-bit CPUs via the ART runtime. It should be unveiled soon, and given Google’s Nexus history, expect nothing less than a cutting edge tablet on the cheap.

Nexus 9 shows up in the flesh bearing HTC logo and matte finish
October is going to be an exciting month, if the rumours turn out to be true. Those rumours allege that two Nexus devices will be announced sometime this month, one a smartphone and the other a tablet device. That tablet is rumoured to be called the Nexus 9, named predictably thanks to its 8.9-inch display, and today it appears we have our first glimpse of the device in the flesh. Obviously we won’t know if this is the real deal until Google officially announces the device, but we do see the tiny HTC logo at the base of the device with a Nexus logo adorning the middle of it. A matte black finish rounds out basically the only other thing we can determine from this picture of the device.
If anything, the device doesn’t appear like a HTC device at all, taking more cues, perhaps, from the Nexus 5’s matte finish. On the inside, the Nexus 9 is expected to house a NVIDIA Tegra K1 processor powering a Quad HD display with 2560×1600 resolution. Wi-Fi and LTE models are rumoured in 16GB and 32GB variants, but hopefully we’ll be hearing more about this from Google officially in the not too distant future.

Nexus 9 gets more real as device gets FCC approval
Everything is falling into place for the Nexus 9 ahead of it’s October 16th release, as the Nexus 9 has received the FCC approval.
Whilst the documentation doesn’t reveal too much about the device, it does confirm that the device doesn’t support the usual 16:9 aspect ratio as seen on most Android devices.
HTC, who are expected to be manufacturing the Nexus 9, is expected to be make a press announcement next week regarding the device.

New Nexus devices will be announced mid October, Android L to be released on November 1st
We know that new Nexus devices and Android L are just around the corner, but we haven’t really had any indication yet when exactly they will be releasing – until today. Android Authority has gotten some tips that suggest that the Nexus 9 tablet, with the possibility of a Nexus smartphone, will be announced on either October 15th or 16th. That Nexus smartphone is likely to be the Motorola-manufactured device, allegedly called the Nexus 6 or Nexus X, that we’ve heard so much about, but its screen size appears to still be a matter of contention – either 5.2 or 6-inches.
Along with the news of these devices releasing, the tip also points towards a November 1st release date for the new build of Android, Android L. Initial estimates pegged a Halloween release, so that wasn’t a bad guess at all. Of course, Android L will feature on the devices announced in mid October, but whether this means the devices won’t be shipped until November 1st looks to be the main discussion point among the press.
What do you think about a mid October announcement for the Nexus devices and November 1st release of Android L? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Google chose HTC for the Nexus 9 to stop any one manufacturer gaining a monopoly
We’ve suspected its been coming for the longest time, but it’s always nice to find out a bit of back story. The Wall Street Journal has yesterday reported on the relationship between Google and HTC and how the Nexus 9 tablet apparently has come to be. According to WSJ, Google chose HTC for the Nexus 9 to stop “any one manufacturer gaining a monopoly”, something Google has been constantly wary of with Android’s biggest manufacturer, Samsung. Of course, this fits right in with Google’s behaviour in changing up hardware partners and ironically, despite not having a tablet of their own, HTC might just be the best for a tablet in 2014.
HTC exited the tablet market in 2012 with the HTC Flyer, a somewhat uninspiring device, so the Taiwanese company might seem like an unusual choice to produce what is probably going to be one of the most popular devices of 2014. However, HTC is widely accepted to have made two of the best Android smartphones over the past two years, and while they struggle to compete with the volumes of larger manufacturers like LG and Samsung, their hallmark has become quality over quantity, something which could make a HTC Nexus device amazing. Of course, Google and HTC have declined to comment on any speculation of a partnership, but it seems almost a done deal that a Nexus 9 tablet is going to appear within the next month or two.

WSJ: Google and HTC collaborating on Nexus tablet
Rumors about a HTC made Nexus 9 tablet have originated all the way back to earlier this summer, and perhaps before. Recently, NVIDIA accidentally leaked/confirmed its existence through legal documents; last week we heard that tell of an October 16 release date. It seems that the rumor mill is still just wants to keep spinning, as we know have an article from Wall Street Journal (WSJ) about the Nexus 9.
Though still a rumor at this point, the WSJ is a pretty significant source for a rumor. According to source, “Google selected HTC over more experienced tablet makers like Samsung to make its upcoming 9-inch Nexus tablet.”
Whether the “people familiar with the matter” are trustworthy remains to be seen so take this with a grain of salt. Nevertheless, it’s exciting to see the WSJ give some credence to these rumors.
Who’s ready for the Nexus 9?

HTC will mark its return to tablets with Google’s Nexus 9
Rumors of an HTC-made Nexus device have swirled for some time, but only recently have details of a possible next-generation tablet started to become apparent. Not long after NVIDIA inadvertently leaked that the Taiwanese company is linking up with Google to launch the Nexus 9, the Wall Street Journal has added even more credibility to reports by stating that HTC engineers have been regularly flying to Google’s Mountain View HQ in order to finalize the 9-inch device. As part of a patent lawsuit against Qualcomm and Samsung earlier this month, NVIDIA revealed that it would be providing the muscle for the Android L-powered slate, which is expected to feature its Tegra K1 processor and launch within the third quarter. However, we’re now just over a week away from the end of September, so it looks increasingly likely that we’ll see something official next month. Remember, Google has a history of scheduling events in October.

HTC Nexus 9 rumors claim an October 16th release date
For those wanting a large screen tablet and a stock Android experience, the selection has been limited. The most common choice is Google’s Nexus 10, but unfortunately that tablet has not seen an update since its original release. Google spent more time refining their smaller Nexus 7 and left the Nexus 10 in the dust. Many have been waiting for a new Nexus 10 but have seen nothing. Recently, rumors have been spreading that Google is collaborating with HTC on a 9-inch tablet which is of course being called the Nexus 9. Fortunately, it looks like this device might be announced fairly soon.
This week MoDaCo’s Paul O’Brien posted a tip from an anonymous source saying that HTC is planning on announcing its Nexus 9 tablet on October 16. Earlier this year, rumors were suggesting a release date of October 9th. Whether this information was incorrect or the date was just pushed back is unknown, but this new information is being considered true.
Anonymous tipster: The HTC Nexus 9 will be launched on 16th October…
— Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrien) September 18, 2014
Since a Motorola Nexus 6 is also rumored for this year, it would not be surprising if Google released both devices at the same time. Hopefully, we will see some invites to a Google event in the next few months which would confirm the launch of something big. So mark your calendar for October 16 because all signs point to a reveal of the Nexus 9 and maybe even the Nexus 6.

Nexus 9 keyboard cover leaked
With the Nexus 9 looking set for the third quarter of 2014, a recent leak claims to show off the rumoured keyboard accessory which is said to come with the Nexus 9 in a Microsoft Surface-like addon.
The seemingly large space above the keys is actually where the Nexus 9 will fold out and stand, covering up the seemingly unused space.
The inclusion of a keyboard accessory with the Nexus 9 would certainly boost the productivity of the device, but are you excited about it?
