Google Rumored To Be Working On Budget Friendly Nexus Smartphone

Google may be working with chip maker MediaTek on a budget Google Nexus device that could be priced as low as $100. With a phone like this, the mobile market could be turned upside down and would be a direct competitor to ex-Google company Motorola and its Moto G smartphone. 

Google's Nexus line is already known for its low priced devices with high-end specifications, but a $100 Nexus device could definitely broaden Google’s mobile market share.

Let us know what you think, would you buy a Google Nexus device for $100? We'll be sure to keep our ears open and update you as details come available.

HTC Device Passes Through FCC With Sprint Frequencies

A nearly identical model of the HTC One SV has just passed through the FCC sporting Sprint radio frequencies. Although there are no images of the device to completely verify, the model number of this device PL80110 is eerily close to Cricket's PL80120. The specs that are decipherable from the filing lead to a little bit of confusion, however, as the physical dimensions seem slightly different from the current SV. There's also a few documents that list the device as a "Windows Phone," while the rest simply list "Smartphone."

The radio frequencies being tested on this unnamed device seem to line up with what Sprint uses for its network, and no other carriers, so we can be pretty sure that whatever this device is it's heading to Sprint. We of course won't know for sure until we hear something official from HTC or Sprint.
