New Nexus 10 2 (2013) to be manufactured by Asus

The new Nexus 10 (2013 edition) will be made by Asus, a new screenshot has revealed.

The pictures, revealed on Geek.com and presumably from a retailer's stock listing shows the Nexus 10 16GB with the brand listed as Asus, rather than Samsung that manufactured the original Nexus 10.

Asus was responsible for making the first and second-generation Nexus 7 tablets and it seems Google was so impressed, it chose the Taiwanese company to make the bigger tablet too. 

However, GSMArena says the source is pretty questionable because placeholder numbers are listed in the product's dimensions.

Very few specs of the Nexus 10 have leaked thus far, although it's thought the next-generation Nexus 10 will feature a higher-resolution display and will launch on Android 4.3, just like the Nexus 7 2 (2013).

There will also probably be a better, higher-powered processor - possibly the same 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro as the Nexus 7 2 (2013) edition.

It sounds as though the Nexus 10 (2013) will launch on the Google Play Store and at Best Buy in the US before Christmas, but there's been no confirmation of that from Google or Asus.

The original Nexus 10 was a bit of a flop when it first launched last year, with the 7-inch Nexus 7 easily outselling its bigger brother.
