Although Google is yet to confirm the next release of Nexus device, rumors are rife in the air that it will be released soon, perhaps this summer.

It is still unclear as to what the upcoming device will look like, both in terms of specs and look, but there are rumors that the manufacturer will provide users with different versions of the Nexus lineup.

As the search giant has already released the Android N Developer Preview 4, rumors are that the final build of Android N will likely be launched in August alongside Google Nexus 2016. Notably, the tech tycoon has previously announced that it will be rolling out Android N preview releases before releasing its final version in Q3, this year.

Meanwhile, Hiroshi Lockheimer, the senior VP in charge of Android, teased fans on social media by tweeting an image that shows him searching the word "Nutella" on Google Search engine. Hence, it is speculated that the Android N will finally arrive as Android Nutella.

In addition, the China based mobile manufacturer Huawei, recently confirmed that it will be manufacturing the next line of Google Nexus devices.

Charlene Munilall, Huawei South Africa Consumer Business Group General Manager, confirmed the news in an interview with Gearburn. Munilall revealed that Huawei will be manufacturing Nexus 2016.

"We're doing the Nexus again this year, by the way," she said.

According to Know Your Mobile, the upcoming handsets will likely be the first to feature Android N's new 3D Touch display technology. It is expected that one of the Nexus smartphones will feature a 5-inch display whereas the high-end version would pack a 5.5-inch display.
