do hey what's going on I'm Noah from technobuffalo when I try this again one of the Google demo demo errs just blew me out with the speakers from the queue over there but we'll get to that in a second I'm here with the Nexus 7 the much leaked oft rumoured ballyhooed google-branded Google built tablet computer 7 inch tablet computer running Android for one jellybean see the Nexus branding on the back and the sous branding it's built by a sous it runs an nvidia quad-core Tegra 3 chipset android 41 like I said the first tablet first device to ship with jelly bean it's a 7-inch 1200 x 800 HD display two versions us eight gig for 199 16 gig for 249 set to shift in mid-july that's the current date they're saying mid-july the device has a front facing camera no rear facing camera and the front facing camera so far as I can tell I'm not seeing a dedicated camera app on here but instead you can get to the camera by launching the Google+ app so if I go to our hang out there I am now and hang out mode but no other way to get to the camera that I've seen although I'm sure it'll be used for all sorts of things also no hardware buttons on the front panel instead you just got the the virtual buttons on the touchscreen and then on the right spine you've got a rocker switch and the power on/off switch on the bottom you've got a headphone jack and a micro USB jack and then that's about it device feels nice hard to get a true sense of its total weight because of the security device here but we're getting ours they're giving these out to everybody later on today so we'll have a ship it back to the home office in John I'll hit you up with a full review in due course but the device feels really nice lightweight definitely smaller and lighter than the knobby to which I just reviewed which was sort of ironically the first Tiger three device with a 7-inch display but built for kids so much thicker and heavier but you know this is this is basically you could look at it as a Kindle Fire killer I mean straight from google with the branding and integrating heavily with the new google plus like i mentioned and the new google play store that now has t TV shows and music and all kinds of stuff and of course also integrating with the new Nexus Q to a separate video on that but that's basically the Apple TV / sonos killer if you want to use the whole killer thing um I don't think I can get into it from this one no I can't only the owner can modify but this is the streaming device whoops for audio and video for 299 that this integrates with android devices as well as the cloud the play cloud but little preview here of advert for one with the upgraded notifications the notification is more configurable more dynamic you've got the widgets on the home screen which can be sort of resized and all kinds of stuff you can do with them now and so I gotta add this widget and I move it on top of gmail it'll move gmail around which is kind of nice makes configuring your widgets a little bit easier and then also if my screen was full and i added another widget it would resize things to make it easier on me as well here we'll have glad the the footmarks because that's big and see it moves things around and we'll add another bookmarks so you can get some Auto resizing happening yeah so you can see that bookmark shrank down to fit the screen anyway just one of the new features on Android for one jellybean and again shipping on the Nexus tablet but the big news here the tablet from a sous again 199 for the a cake version i believe 249 for the 16 gig version 7 inch HD display it will ship in mid-july or so and pre-orders i believe are available now you can check out the google play store to order direct from there from google i/o where i'm about to check out the Nexus Q which is now displaying high-def video on the big screen I'm Noah crap it's much much more from io 2012 over on TechnoBuffalo com really spike
