The current Nexus smartphone, the LG Nexus 4 was originally available just in black. However, LG are now offering it in white as well. Tech specs for the White LG Nexus 4 are still the same as the old black one, which isn't bad since you still get a high-end smartphone but the only difference with the White Nexus 4 is its colour. It should be available already but it would likely go for a slightly higher price than the original black one. While on that topic, LG have confirmed that they have no plans for another Nexus smartphone, squashing earlier rumours about an LG Nexus 5 smartphone in the works. LG have not ruled out working with Google again though.
In related news, LG have confirmed that they are working on a new tablet for this year. No details about tech specs, pricing or availability but we expect it to arrive at the IFA congress event in September. LG was also quoted as saying that they may be looking for an alternative smartphone OS apart from Android or Windows Phone. Since it's unlikely that LG will pick up iOS, maybe they might opt for Ubuntu mobile or Firefox OS? LG also have plans to design chip hardware as well.
