Google nexus 7 is a great device

Google nexus 7 is a great device comming from the ASUS this is a lovely piece of equipment, there has been a talk about an 7" ipad but before that can happen it was right timing from google to announce the nexus 7.

Nexus 7 is available to pre order from play.google.com starting from gbp159 for a 8gb model and 199 for a 16gb one.

Technical Specification:
The Display
IPS display with a resolution of 1280x800 HD display promises to give stunning display, great for videos, reading pdfs etc. For a lot of us with small children will be happy to learn the glass is scratch resistant Corning glass.

The CPU
Quad-core Tegra 3 processor make this a monster among its class, dwarfs Kindle fire and ups the game, all your processor intensive games will run smoothly on this device.

The battery
Google say it will last a long time infact straight from the google pages follows below:


9 hours of HD video playback
10 hours of web browsing
10 hours of e-reading
300 hours of standby

The battery is close to 4350 mAh, not to compare with the ipad huge memory, pretty much the ipad is made of the battery... but still battery life is ok.

On the whole this should be a great device, only thing is it is not extensible in the sense you cant put a external usb drive to extend the device's memory - but hey what the heck a lot of content is now online and so it seems Google is content in letting people fetch it from the cloud.

Taking this further google are also giving a voucher/gift card of 15gbp in the UK and 25usd in the US.

The device is available from many leading vendors like PC world, Currys, and even from Google through their play,google.com site.

Do leave your comments on how you feel having your device in your hand..
