Nexus Tablet Sales Estimate Reflects The Nexus 10 Is Most likely Not A Popular Choice
Author: Gabe Hall
Nexus tablet device sales remain a bit nebulous, since Google does not offer specific numbers around them. However market watchers, and Benedict Evans in particular, commonly try to pierce the veil to discover where the Nexus brand name stands compared to the remaining industry when it comes to sales. The Nexus 10, it appears, probably diminishes in contrast to the majority of.
The tablet, made by OEM partner Samsung, went on sale in November of in 2012, simply shortly after the iPad mini, and based on Evans’ estimates from modeling energetic Android individuals, incorporated with details from Google’s advancement data based on display sizes and resolution in use. Based on there being 680 million energetic Android individuals by the end of April, Evans states that that suggests 6.8 million Nexus 7 gadgets overall, and just around 10 percent of that, or 680,000 Nexus 10s.
As Evans notes, Apple sold someplace near 10 million iPads throughout just the final 2 months of Q4 2012 by comparison. It also revealed overall iPad sales for its first financial quarter of 2013 of 22.9 million iPads total, including bot the iPad mini and the standard iPad. To claim that Google’s efforts with the bigger Nexus tablet up until now haven’t had clients rushing to shops would be reasonable, even if Evans’ estimate is only freely exact.
Google is claimed to be preparing to debut a next-generation Nexus 10 currently, with an enhanced CPU and GPU. However the issue right here is not truly about gadget quality; many discovered the Nexus 10 a fine entertainer, especially compared with numerous other larger Android gadgets from other sources.
Google’s line of self-branded hardware has never ever been totally about selling product. They getting started being more about working as reference designs, to show OEM partners what was possible with the platform. Recently, thanks to extreme price and significantly impressive hardware like the Nexus 4, nevertheless, they’re becoming more popular with basic consumers. But an LG-made smartphone that fits a need most consumers already understand they have, with a proven item classification like the Android smartphone is a far cry from a 10-inch Android tablet, which the marketplace has actually up until now reflected little interest in, no matter what the source or the price.
The inflection point for Android tablet sales still has yet to appear. Google’s Nexus efforts in this case could be an essential element of assisting that happen, but just if the company can also begin to strongly broaden software options tailored for Android tablets and ensure clients know why they may desire such a device.

Redesigned YouTube rolling out to some users, reflects the influence of Google+
Author: Matthew Wilson
From the looks of this screenshot posted by one of our readers, it appears YouTube is testing a new homepage styled more like the look that recently rolled out on Google+. The current default look rolled out last winter with more focus on channels and social integration, while this new facade features more white space and list of channels and friends to the side. We asked YouTube about the new look and a spokesperson issued a boilerplate statement about experimenting with ways to help users find the videos that are important to them. The statement in full is after the break, however the key part is that they’re listening to user feedback so take a close look at this pic and the rest at the source link below then let us (and Google) know what you think.
[Thanks, M.B. Goro]

Microsoft’s face of Windows Phone dev reflects on a year of inspiring developers
Author: Ian Simpson
Samsung Focus S
Brandon Watson, Director of Developer Experience for Windows Phone, has penned an interesting blog post to reflect on a year of helping developers succeed with Windows Phone.
Watson is often seen as the face of Windows Phone and Microsoft’s developer efforts for Windows Phone app developers. In a blog post on Monday, Watson dives deep into his history at Microsoft and the company’s massive effort to reboot a struggle mobile ecosystem. “We had to start with a completely new dev platform, new tooling, and the fallout of a clean break from Windows Mobile 6.x, making many of those developers angry,” explains Watson. The Windows Phone team set out to achieve one main goal, evangelise Windows Phone by demonstrating a clear opportunity for developers to build on top of the operating system. “This meant landing our stories with the press, but also engaging with developers on a 1:1 basis where possible,” explains Watson.
Watson has been the main man for developers to reach out to over the past year. He shared his own personal phone number with Windows Phone developers earlier this year and championed Microsoft’s efforts to allow homebrew applications on the Windows Phone platform. He also recently bet $ 1,000 on Windows Phone 7 with the author of the comic strip Dilbert. Watson offered Scott Adams the chance to try a Windows Phone 7 device. If Adams didn’t like Windows Phone then Watson promised to donate $ 1,000 to a charity of Adams’ choice. Adams was impressed by Windows Phone. Watson has also previously offered Windows Phone devices to notorious iPhone hacker Geohot and the original Windows Phone 7 jail breaking team ChevronWP7.
Watson says Microsoft has learned things over the past year and has “recalibrated” their principles as a result of that. “The essence remains largely the same, though I can say that we have made them more focused,” he says. “What has made me happier than anything is the level of support from the community. Heck, I might even go so far as to say we have fan boys.” The community behind Windows Phone is passionate, intelligent and will often assist Microsoft in marketing its products. Watson regonizes this, “The number one principle for this year is: be highly available,” he admits. “We’ve learned quite a bit over the last year, but more than anything else, I have learned that if you make yourself available to the community, and do your honest best to invest in helping people out, and getting their questions answered, it will pay off in spades.”

Cybertecture Mirror reflects our fantasies, looks set to become a reality (video)
Author:
We’re still trying to rub the disbelief out of our eyes, but no, this isn’t a dream. The Cybertecture Mirror may look like yet another vapor-rich concept — what with its translucent overlaid interface and cloud-connected ways — but it’s actually just had its launch in Hong Kong, is set to start taking pre-orders in December, and will (hopefully) be shipped by the middle of next year. The brainchild of one James Law, this reflective renegade measures 800 x 500 x 50mm, comes with stereo speakers totalling 10W of power output, WiFi, IP41 waterproofing, and fog-resistant glass. Before you ask if it runs Android, both the display and operating system are said to be proprietary, with the latter offering access to messaging, weather, calendar, and apps, such as an included fitness-tracking utility. Wen Wei Po reports a 60,000 HKD ($ 7,733) launch price and a very ambitious expectation that two million Mirrors will be sold over the first three years. Best of luck to them. You’ll find masses of video after the break.
[Thanks, Brendan]
