The Nexus 7 2013 edition has just launched officially at the Indian Play Store (check out Nexus 7 2013 in India), but the buyers in US have just got a better offer than earlier for the same tablet from ASUS. The Nexus 7 is originally priced at $259 and this is for the 32GB Wi-Fi version. This one is available right now on Amazon and probably could stay for just a day or two because this was a price adjustment made by Amazon after Newegg featured this on the Daily Deals.
The discount given is $30, i.e. you get the Nexus 7 32GB for $239 and that is quite good as you get a discount of around 11%. This would be better for the Amazon Prime members because they are going to get it for a no lesser price anywhere else and this would be added up by the 2-day shipping for them.
The Nexus 7 2013 is one of the best tablet devices in a price that doesn’t burn the pockets, and for the specifications given along with the 32GB storage, the price of $240-odd is pretty good. It comes with the 7-inch touchscreen and a brilliant HD display, having a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels with the 323 PPI pixel density, and the screen has got a Corning gorilla glass protection.
Internally the Asus Nexus 7 2013 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor clocking at 1.5 GHz, and 2GB of RAM along with the 400 MHz Adreno 320 GPU. It runs the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OS, and it’s the stock ROM as this is the one provided by Google. There are various connectivity options, including the Wi-Fi dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0. There is a 5-megapixel rear camera with autofocus and a 1.2-megapixel front facing camera with the fixed focus. It has got a 3950 mAh battery packed in.
Out of the box, you would see an update available to Android 4.4 KitKat officially sent by the makers, and the OTA update is available for the Nexus 7, Nexus 10 devices. If you don’t see an update after you have connected the Nexus 7 to the Internet, go to Settings -> About Tablet -> System updates -> Check Now to check for the update.
