Google's new Nexus 7 tablet leaks again in press shots



Days after photos and video surfaced of what appears to be an updated Nexus 7 tablet from Google, the @evleaks Twitter account has provided press images to corroborate the claims. The pictures show the new rear-facing camera, notification light, and dual speakers, as well as the horizontally orientated "Nexus" wordmark and the logo of manufacturer Asus.

The tablet could be announced as soon as this week; Google is holding an event with Android and Chrome chief Sundar Pichai on Wednesday. The company tends to launch new versions of Android alongside new hardware, so it's more than possible that the new Nexus 7 could mark our first official look at Android 4.3 as well.

I wish they'd make the bezel smaller, that'd make for a really slick tablet. Look at the iPad Mini.

I told y'all you cant do much with tablet design from iteration to iteration. This back looks better than the last but the camera still throws it off.

Thank God I didn't wait for this piece of ****. I got the first generation Nexus 7 and couldn't be happier Thank God I didn't buy the iPad Mini as well. I was kinda hesitant getting an Android device at first because I was afraid that it'll lag as hell but the occasional lags aren't really bothersome. The rear camera is really not necessary for a tablet and the 1080p resolution is just too much for a 7' tablet, you really wouldn't notice the difference and it'll just consume battery life much more. I'm not a fan of 1080p displays in phones since 720p is more than enough. I just hope they upgrade the RAM and get another processor. The Nvidia Tegra 3 is really good, though.

The Nexus 7 is one hell of a gaming console. It's like the PSP and Gameboy in 1 Reliving my childhood games like Twisted Metal, Pokemon, Tekken, Metal Gear and others. I'm so glad I bought this.

Android is currently winning my heart. The customization and capabilities are brilliant. I may have overlooked Android but now it's a winner for me. I cling on iOS because of the music syncing and it literally 'just works'. Other than the ocassional lags, Android is truly a winner. No wonder it gained so much attention.

Meh.

I want. Can't wait to purchase it.

The only problem with Android is it's too customizable to the point where you can download Virus' through uploaded skins and apps. My brother and sister downloaded an app (Candry Crush) from the Play Store and started getting web links on the home screen to Casino slots and **** sites. It's too easy to get virus' on things like phones? Imagine if you downloaded an app and got a virus which made you have to wipe your data?

I like the fact you can customize the look and feel, but there is a lack of security that goes with that which means you can be handing out valuable information just by downloading an app. Even the Anti-virus apps can't stop them.

iOS is better in most ways because you can use it without feeling like it's ever going to screw up. Most of the first gen iPhones still work as well as they did back then. They might just be slower running new apps but the interface is still the same and works.

It's a shame because devices like the Note 2 (and the upcoming 3) look amazing and I really want a Kindle Fire just for a different kind of interface BUT when I've had to deal with all the problems my Dad has with me having to clear his phone out of things he never even touched like widgets being added on their own or my brother saying apps don't work properly and keep crashing due to virus' etc. and yet my iPad 1 still sits there never causing me any problems, it puts me off.

I want to have an Android device but the fact that iOS 7 is bringing in a lot of the same with better integrated functionality rather than add on's and that I know my device will work the two years I have it rather than slow down like a PC once I put too much stuff on it, I might stick to the 5S. If they can fix the security issues, I would probably get a Galaxy esque phone.

I approve of Apple's secured OS. The thing you always have to do is be extra careful of what you're downloading. That's the problem with a lot of Windows users. They do not care what they click on as long as they get it installed. Let's make my home and office an example. At home my laptop is clean, adware free but the shared PC has tons adwares and viruses because my family does not read what they're installing. Getting viruses still depends on how you use your device and how you distinguish file types. At the office, my PC remains the cleanest. It really depends as long as you know what you're downloading.

Also, I doubt the links you're talking about came from the app downloaded. It probably came from something else. Another thing, reading reviews before downloading an app helps a lot. I may just be an Android newbie but knowing and doing basic instructions really do help a lot.

Here's a few knowledge about Android and the Google Play Store:

For gamers, the emulators are the **** and you're phone doesn't require rooting for it to work unlike in iOS where you still need to jailbreak your phone before using one.

It's ugly as ****.
