It is surprising but true news. According to Reuters, Google and Alphabet would have canceled the Ara project and thus the creation of the first mobile modular that much we have heard.
Apparently Google wants to reduce the hardware section and its cost, so that over the next few days we will hear news similar to this, but the first of these projects is falling has been project Ara.
This project Ara comes to Google after the purchase of Motorola by Google and this sale to Lenovo. In this step, Google was set at a project where he was working Motorola known as Blocks. This project sought to create devices for blocks. The Ara project sought to create not only a smartphone but also a tablet that from this premise could construct and Exchange blocks or modules. Something that looked like that she got after the latest images of the prototypes that had appeared , but in the end this project has been cancelled.
Project Ara will be diffused by other Google outside companies who are interested in it
And despite its cancellation, Google will continue to benefit from it. All the experience and information that Google has obtained with developed until the project Ara will be exhibited and sold to other companies that are developing this kind of technology or have an interest in it, helping create new terminals with this technology.
Project Ara is not the first project of hardware from Google that is suspended, something similar step with the Google Glass and in spite of all this, the technology came out ahead, so possibly in a short time we have mobile modular but not with the signing of Google, it should not be forgotten that there is Lg G5 and that other companies are still interested in this technology, but apparently Google already does not.
