Say GoodBye To Invites!

   OnePlus has done away with their invite system for the OnePlus One, the phone sporting flagship specs for less than half the price of a flagship. 





   The invite system that OnePlus have been using has been a major annoyance to most people because it made getting your hands on the phone one hell of a task. The reason for the invite system being, every time OnePlus built a phone, they released an invite, by doing this they made sure they had no extra stock since we all know that phones are depreciating assets.

   The fact that they've done away with invites means that we call all grab a brand new OnePlus One whenever we feel like it.

Nexus 6 Will Not Be Released Nexus 8 Will Be And Android Silver.

The only vanilla android device being released this year will be the 8.9 inch Google Nexus 8 Tablet, the successor to the Nexus 7, leaving the highly anticipated Nexus 6 nowhere to be seen. According to pretty much every report out there, the Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 won't be refreshed this year but, will instead be retired entirely. In other news, it's been confirmed that the Nexus 8 will be made by a collaboration between Google and HTC.

circling back to the Nexus 6, Google is working on a new project called Android Silver which will most probably be the successor to the Nexus line. Android Silver is like the next step in the direction after the Nexus programme, but instead of having just one device, Android Silver will be a programme consisting of different devices from different manufacturers all the while being highly controlled by Google.



The Nexus 8 release date is expected to be in the early third quarter of 2014 or in the immediate weeks following this year's Google Developers Conference on June 24 and 25.
