Who will manufacture the Google Nexus 5? There are two likely contenders – Asus, which is making the Nexus 7 tablet and Motorola Mobility, Google’s newly owned subsidiary. The Nexus 7 has been well received and it would seem like a prudent choice for Google to bank on that success. Then again, Google owns Motorola Mobility and it would make sense to give the production of what could be a best-selling phone to a wholly owned subsidiary company. The thing is, there have been rumors about Motorola releasing a smartphone called the Moto X. All we know for sure is that most likely that Google will want Motorola or Asus to be the manufacturer.
