Nexus is a series of Android mobile devices running a "vanilla" version of Android, meaning that it does not use any of the modifications other manufacturers add to Android.[citation needed] Each device is designed by Google, but manufactured by a partner. So far, Google has released 14 Nexus devices: 8 phones, 4 tablets, and 2 media steamers. The line was discontinued in 2016 and succeeded by the Google Pixel line.[1]
