Always On - Google Nexus 7 Unboxing

2012-07-03
first up in our unboxing the Nexus 7 tablet this is Google's answer to the kindle fire and the barnes & noble nook it is a 7-inch full-fledged Android tablets made for Google Play which could present some problems that we'll get to later but first let's get this sucker out of the box which is no small feat because if they have the thing ductive they're all right we already opened it a little bit we'll talk about that later too don't you work out of the thing I need a knife I don't really need a nice almost you guys wanted a true unboxing ok so the tablet coming out it's actually quite a bit smaller than the barnes & noble nook it feels a lot lighter they say it's about 12 ounces that's roughly the weight of a can of soda now the back of our tablet is white unfortunately that is just the developer version that was given out at Google i/o so when you get it it's going to be black the power there we go Google it's the first tablet to run jelly bean Android 4.1 it has a nice high resolution 1280 by 800 HD screen a quad-core Tegra 3 processor which is great for gaming there's one gigabyte of RAM compared to the kindle fires 512 megabytes you can get either eight gigabytes or 16 gigs of storage you get micro USB for charging and hookups and it comes with NFC or near field communication which means it can tap other NFC devices to share information wirelessly there's also a 1.2 megapixel camera on the front for video conferencing I think the only thing holding it back probably is that Google Play library it is nothing compared to Amazon's and then of course the Nook just has kind of its own cult thing going on but when it comes to 7-inch tablets I got to say I think this guy is the new frontrunner all that said we hear rumors that Amazon might introduce a new kindle fire sometime this summer if they do I'm sure that they will bring the big guns but until then give this guy a try you
