The Nexus 10, a 10-inch tablet, has been developed with Samsung, and a new phone, the Nexus 4, has been made with LG. Google also said it would upgrade its seven-inch tablet, the Nexus 7, to include a cellular data connection. "We're building pretty sensational world-class products here," said Hugo Barra, director of product management for Android at Google.

"You do not find anything remotely like that out there," he added.
