We reported a little while ago a set of rumours which suggested Google had plans to bring its Google Nexus project in-house to develop its smartphones internally; essentially mirroring Apple's approach with the iPhone.Since then, however, that rumour has sort of died down and the focus has shifted to reports of Android OEMs including HTC and Huawei building 2016's Nexus crop along the lines of Google's existing model.Now though, a new rumour has emerged reiterating the idea of an in-house Google phone in development, but there's a twist - it is not a Nexus device.
