If you were planning to buy a Nexus 5 ,7 or a Nexus 10 , sorry ,it looks like  those devices just left the building , The Nexus 5 , launched last year as a vehicle for promoting Android 4.4 Kitkat was one of the best smartphones until recent times , the phone was originally sold at $349 and it was a good purchase considering that the phone was based on the LG G2 . The Asus made Nexus 7 2013 edition has also been given the boot ,but considering that the tablet , which was slowly getting "too small" in the wake of mega size smartphones , the drop was expected , but sadly , the large screened Nexus 10 , which at the time was one of the most powerful devices thanks to its (fast by 2012 standards) Dual Core A15 Eagle processor and 2560x1440 resolution 10" display is also going down in favor of the -One Size fits all - Nexus 9.

There's no doubt that Google is becoming a full-fledged hardware company, but the latest Google X project is a lot different that tablets and smartphones — the company just announced that it's building a "smart contact lens." However, it's not meant to be a miniaturized version of Glass — it's meant to help diabetes patients keep track of their glucose levels. Inside the lens is a miniaturized wireless chip and glucose monitor that will measure the glucose levels of the wearer's tears. Google's hoping that it'll be a less painful and invasive way to monitor glucose levels than the typical method of pricking a finger and testing blood droplets multiple times a day. Ideally, the sensor would be able to generate a reading once per second, and Google wants it to act as an early warning device for when glucose levels start dropping — the company imagines putting a minuscule LED light in the lens that could indicate levels dropping above or below a s...
