nsane.forums Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Google announced the successor to its Nexus 7, also called the Nexus 7, on Wednesday, and the company told the audience of reporters that the tablet would be available for purchase in the US on July 30 from the Google Play store, Amazon, and Best Buy's online store. As of today, it appears you can buy two Wi-Fi-only versions of the tablet from those three online retailers right now. Google announced three versions of its tablet on Wednesday: a 16GB Wi-Fi only version for $229; a 32GB Wi-Fi only version for $269; and a 32GB, LTE-compatible version for $349. While the two Wi-Fi versions are now for sale, the LTE-capable model has yet to show up. When it does, it will be able to work with Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile networks. Google has promised that Canada, Germany, Spain, the UK, Japan, South Korea, France, and Australia will be able to buy the new Nexus 7 in the coming weeks. The tablet is the first to ship with Android 4.3, which means tablet owners can create restricted profiles for multiple users on the tablet. It also comes with an improved 1920×1200 screen resolution (giving the 7 tablet a competitive 323 pixels per inch) and has doubled its RAM from the 1GB that the original Nexus 7 offered. Ars did some benchmarks with the Nexus on Wednesday and found that it reflects a huge speed improvement over the original Nexus 7. Those specs bode well for the new tablet, and it appears that Google is not holding back in trying to get the hardware in people's hands.

Dodel Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 It sucks that they STILL haven't dumped an SD card slot with this, as it would have been a killer toy with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make any sense. Despite the fact the devices are pretty pretty cheap, I don't think that manufacture those devices with SD slot would make a big difference on the final price.Please, take a look at http://www.androidcentral.com/why-nexus-devices-have-no-sd-card. About a a year ago. That explanation makes sense at least.Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
