No doubt, Google I/O conference would be the biggest focus
these days. But simply from today’s 3-hour keynote of Google I/O, we have to
say that this Google I/O conference is not a conference for hardware. Previously
there’re reports and rumors that Google would announce X Phone or next Nexus 4, which now have been proved to be rumors only. The only hardware
appearing on Google I/O is so called Google
Edition Samsung Galaxy S 4, which is powered by stock Android 4.2.2 Jelly
Bean OS, while the current Samsung Galaxy S 4 of the phone which runs Samsung's TouchWiz UI over Android 4.2.2.
It’s reported that the Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition will
be available next month and will support T-Mobile's bands. We do not know at
this point if the phone will be sold in the Google Play Store and what the
pricing will be. Previous speculation had a newer version of the Google Nexus 4 being unveiled at Google I/O with 32GB of native storage and 4G LTE
connectivity. That phone still might be unwrapped on Wednesday.
