Nexus 7 refresh imminent according to leaked photos, retail documents (update) | The Verge

to be announced at next week's event
4GB memory :fulloffuck:
rumoured price 16GB $230 and 32GB $270

definitely looks sexier then the 1st gen...

Apparently the design hasn't changed much though.
I wonder if they worked all the QC issues out

4GB memory is probably a typo.

^yeah or could be a dev version...who knows they might surprise us

i'm hesistant to buy the first batch...I want user reviews a few months after to see if spongy screen/reported cheap degrading flash will be used again

I don't see anything significantly different for me to upgrade from the first gen :okay:

it have a camera!

still not going to buy something that does not fit in my pocket.

I would rather buy the Moto X or something 10inch+ with a keyboard

Funny enough, both my old Nexus7 and Tab2 7" fit into my pants pockets without a problem. But I do wear relatively baggy pants and not skin tight jeans. ;)

looks like 1200p is real
regardless of how one holds their tablet the horizontal bezels are unecessarily thick
right now it's pegged to ship July 30th

meh at the look

hows the specs?

Same. I already went through more trouble than I should have to get a first gen that was acceptable.
I'll wait for the next gen and a bigger upgrade

New Nexus 7 (Codename Razor) Fully Detailed And Benchmarked ? 2GB Of RAM, Snapdragon S4 Pro, And 1920x1200 Screen

internals are very similar to Nexus 4

yeah, its a bigger version of the Nexus 4.

Im actually a little bummed out that they didnt use the Snapdragon 600.......like the initial rumors said. O well.

That's why you wait for the 3rd generation model which will be baus and hopefully not ASUS made :p
(Unless they up their QC drastically)

don't feel like starting a new thread
anyone thinking of getting the ChromeCast? I have no need for it but it's only $35
Google introduces Chromecast, a $35 HDMI streaming solution for televisions (video)

I plan to, just for shits and giggles
its cheap enough to be a throwaway

thats cheap, i would probably get one to see how it works. even if its a complete piece of crap i only wasted <$50

Futureshop, Bestbuy and Staples have stock now.

My order is shipping from RIchmond. HOpefully the device will be in my hands tomorrow. :D

I reserved mine for tomorrow morning at 10am

Awesome little machine. Received mine in HK yesterday.

still deciding if i should get the n7 2013 or ipad mini for notetaking at school...

New N7 has 1.5 Gigs of RAM more, 0.5 GHz faster (and quad core vs dual core), 150+ DPI more (higher resolution) and $100 cheaper.

iPad mini has a bigger screen and an Apple logo on the back.

imo, iPad mini is not comparable, maybe the iPad mini 2 is, but who knows when that will be out.

Does this help your decision?
