ASUS Nexus 7 Review: Tablet with Android Jelly bean

ASUS Nexus 7
The fans of Android tablets, there are probably quite a while to wait: the Nexus 7 from ASUS and Google, the first Android tablet with the new operating system Jelly bean (Android 4.1). We got to work with the Nexus 7 to see how the new tablet rid of it brings.

With the Nexus 7 differs from the ASUS own course when it comes to Android tablets. This is an 'ordinary' tablet, so without a dock. Furthermore, it is a model with a diameter of 7 inches, a format that is ASUS still has not previously been produced. ASUS tablet has not only created, but has done with Google itself. Hence, on the back both the name of the manufacturer (ASUS) and Google typing Nexus is found. About a month ago at Google I / O was the first tablet by Google officially shown to the outside world. The name "Nexus" means that we are dealing with the first tablet version of this line, which also includes the Nexus S smartphone and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

Google seems the Nexus lines have devised new operating systems on a partially controlled by them communicated to the public to imagine. Where the Nexus S was the first smartphone that Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) operating system, was the first Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). For the launch of version 4.1 of Android, also known as Jellybean, Google has not opted for a smartphone, but for a tablet. Jelly Bean is also now no longer exclusively seen on the Nexus 7. Other devices have already received the update. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus and the Motorola Xoom hear traditional with the devices soon be equipped with a new operating system and that the update is already available for.

It is now clear that the ASUS tablet from September will sell. In contrast to U.S., it will only be in the Netherlands, the 16GB-model to be made and will thus be omitted of the model with 8 GB of internal storage. The price for the 16GB model that ASUS in the European market will bring is not officially announced, but if we have the dollar sign at the American price replaced by a dollar sign, where it often just comes down to, we arrive at a price of 250 euros. All this for a 7-inch tablet with IPS panel, quad-core Tegra 3 (T30L) and the latest operating system (Jelly Bean). That sounds excellent and we look like something better.
