subject: Asus Google Nexus 7- The New Generation [print this page] According to data, the Nexus 7 is posting impressive usage figures. It currently accounts for 0.3 impressions for every 100 iPad impressions. That doesnt sound like much, but the Nexus is actually on track to quickly catching up with other popular Android tablets like the Kindle Fire and Samsung Galaxy Tab.
After just a week then, the Nexus 7 already passed HPs failed Touchpad and could leave Motorolas Xoom and Amazons Kindle Fire behind within the next few weeks once Google catches up with demand. It is hopeful to catch up with iPad in the future like Samsung Galaxy Tab.
Like other Nexus-branded devices, the Nexus 7 tablet isn't actually hardware manufactured by Google (as you may have noticed thanks to the suffix). As Mountain View has done with Samsung, HTC and Motorola in the past, the company paired with Asus to design and manufacture its slender tablet.
There some objective opinions on it.
The good: The quad-core Tetra 3 processor delivers fast performance and a beautiful and responsive screen. Also, it's comfortable to hold and Android 4.1 brings a surplus of welcome additions. At only $200, the Nexus 7 is a steal.
The bad: The lack of built-in expandable storage and omission of HDMI are disappointing, and the design follows the plain, black tablet mold. The top and bottom bezels are a bit too thick.
The bottom line: With a beautiful screen, fast performance, a comfortable design, and overall great media options, the Nexus 7 is easily the best 7-inch tablet available and one of the top tablets on the market.
The Nexus 7 by Asus is more of an effort to stomp out Amazon's unwelcome (and forked) version of Android more than it's attempt to dethrone Apple's reigning champ.
Undoubtedly tired of watching OEMs make little headway in their uphill struggle against Apple's iPad, Google executives took the stage at this year's Google I/O developer conference to announce a branded seven-inch tablet of their own: the Google Nexus 7 by Asus.
Conclusion:
Yep, the Nexus 7 is yet another black tablet in the long line of black tablets. Yet, it does its best to break from the cookie cutter mold of most slates.
