October seems to be a month of Google Nexus leaks and rumours. From Nexus smartphones to Nexus tablet, we seem to have a lot of Nexus devices coming in soon. According to Digitimes, which first reported about $99 Nexus 7 variant, is back with more details on the tablet.

According to this rumour king, the $99 version of Nexus will come with Wondermedia Prizm WM8950 instead of the present NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, HUVA TN panel made by Taiwan-based HannStar and the tablet will be made by Quanta Computer.

The publication also claims that the tablet will be released some time in this quarter. We are yet to see any real evidence to support Digitimes’ claims, so will suggest you to take this with a pinch of salt.
