Images claiming to show off the next Nexus device have appeared online, revealing a joint venture between Google and LG.
In the past Google has teamed up with HTC for the initial Google Nexus One, and then switched over to Samsung for the Google Nexus S and the most recent Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
Rumours surrounding the next incarnation of the Nexus range are rife, with suggestions that the search giant is looking at other manufacturers to produce the handset, with LG seemingly heading the pack.
Disco time
Now images have popped up on Belarusian site Onliner, which apparently show off the LG made handset, complete with a disco-ball effect rear body.
According to the snaps the phone sports a test version of Android Jelly Bean and the model number E960 - if the naming regime is carried over from the Galaxy Nexus, this handset could be called the LG Optimus Nexus.
Other rumours suggest that the Optimus Nexus will be a modified version of the LG Optimus G, although exact differences between the two handsets are currently unknown.
Google could announce the LG Optimus Nexus in the next month or so, just in time for the lucrative Christmas market, however we're yet to hear anything official from the big G or its potential Korean partner.
