available for pre order in uk! @ £199,,google playstore
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMQdfGFK5XQ
As the name suggests, the Google Nexus 7 features a 7" IPS display with a resolution of 1280x800 pixels. The tablet is powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core Tegra 3 chip with 1GB of RAM and 12 core ultra-low voltage nVidia GeForce GPU.
And despite the capable hardware, Google managed to keep the price of the Nexus 7 impressively low. The slate will come in 8GB and 16GB flavors, which will retail for $199 and $249 respectively.
The Google Nexus 7 comes with Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth and NFC connectivity and Google Wallet preinstalled. Sadly, there isn’t a 3G model available, but obviously keeping the price as low as possible was key here. That's also the reason there isn't a camera at the back, and only a 1.2MP front-facing snapper. However, it's capable of shooting 720p video, so it's not all bad.
Measuring 198.5 x 120 x 10.5 mm the 7-incher weighs in at 340 grams which is respectful for its size. The Amazon Kindle Fire and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 will be having a hard time indeed.
The Google Nexus 7 is already available for pre-order in UK, US, Canada and Australia and should ship in mid July. You can follow this link to book your Nexus 7 unit.
Do you know if it has a memory card slot?
16gb will go in a flash...

I think I heard that there's not. It's a bummer for me; with so many new phones dropping microSD support, I was hoping to use my 32 GB microSD on the tablet.
Ohh, so no extra memory at all?
I wish i could use my memory card too

It sucks money balls but they want you to go to the cloud with all your stuff. IT FLIPPIN SUCKS
also if your in USA shipping and tax for maryland atleast is 30 more bucks added on.
Yeah, id have gladly paid £250 for one with sdcard slot
Ill probably still get one though
just want to share if its any good to anybody here!!nothing is perfect really,..some tablets are different form one another,,some are the ones your looking for..and some are not,,talking about memory,, its depends on who uses it really,,its your choice!!thanks....but for me not a bad price for the specs ,,considering the lack of memory card slot...thanks again,,,

I feel you...i have been literally checking daily on rumors the past few months on this tablet. Im very turned off by the lack of SD.
I imagined Google would do this in the spirit of the GNex and NS...im wondering if the Asus version due in Aug. will have expandable memory

i ordered one... for the price, IDGAF about storade space, i got the 16gb and it came to about 285 shipped. Thats an awesome price for hd screen, quad core processor, 12-core gpu, gps,etc. Im still amazed how they are profitable at that price. 16gb is more than enough for TRAVEL/ON THE GO. At home, you have FULL use of the cloud. On the go , I doubt you go through more than 16gb of media unless its a long trip and on long trips, u have wifi usually. I actually would have gotten the 8gb but figured 16gb is more desirable/will hold value longer. Be excited folks, i didnt think they would be able to do it. The sd slot was the BEST possible compromise, or would u have rathered to have sd but have a DUAL core, or 512mb of ram, or a 1000x600 screen or no gps etc.
So that means 200$ price not include tax, shipping fee ?

The reason shipping isn't free is because Google is already taking a loss for these. I'm sure Bestbuy will have them, but will sell them for $230/$280 and you will have to force them to price match.

haha missed it again. Actually, I'm torn on which one to get. I loved 7.0 Plus and would want one back but the Nexus does look nice.. of course the 7.0 plus would be cheaper.. grr..
Hey
Here in Sweden, the nexus 4 costs around 650 U.S. dollars. I can't get it cheaper from here. The question is, is the phone worth buying for 650 dollars? I really love the phone, but the phone's battery/camera maybe doesn't match the price?
Thx
I bought mine off of eBay for $540 tho, but I sold my s2 for $430.
What phone you currently own?
I bought mine fort 522 (€395) dollars in Germany. It is a great iPhone that will need a charge at night though. It is superfast, camera is good but nog terrific. Bur overall it is worth the money imo. Smooth, fast and first tot get updates and off course no bloatware.

YOLO.
@OP: its your money. spend it the way you want. coming to this forum, most of the people will say yes because we're biased, id even say it myself personally because I prefer nexus devices over anything else.
read reviews, watch videos, read forum posts and judge for yourself. good luck.
Yeah, it's same here at Finland. Lowest I can find it is over $660 USD (€500), but usually from trusted shops, it's more like $740 USD (€560).
I hope that UK/Germany-based web stores can get it soon to stock, I'm not going to pay over €450 for it, it's not worth it if you ask me..
If someone could recommend good shops from European union, I'd be glad to hear them

Read a review. I'm not here to advertise a phone whether you should buy it or not or say things so you walk away from buying a N4. It's up to you.
Most people here will beg you to buy it, but I'm a honest person. If you want the phone, just buy it.
http://androidandme.com/2012/11/smartphones-2/nexus-4-review-roundup/ provides a good overview of N4 reviews.

I'll get a Note II or HTC One X+ if it costs around the same. While Nexus 4 is a great device, the most compelling reason (for me, at least) to buy it is the $350 price point from Play Store. At $650 there are many other options that you can consider, and the Nexus 4 only make sense if you really really want stock and want to get the next Android version the day it is available.
Thanks everyone for the replies, i think im going to buy it.

Well, I'd like to have the best smartphone there is. HTC One X+ is great, but Nexus 4 is better, it has 1GB more RAM etc.
Nexus 4 happens to be the best phone on market at the moment, which is fairly well available. Xiaomi Mi-2 isn't available, I would buy it if it was.
That's why I've decided to buy N4, but I have no idea where to get it, without paying something like $650 dollars, which isn't fair price.

Wise choice.... The N4 rocks more than any other right now!
N4 is literally the phone that I would've bought even if it was 800 dollars it is fast smooth and in Canada, I can have lte!!

The N4, from what reports are saying. Will be at top of the Android phones. Currently held by the SGS3 and the Note 2.. I like all 3 the thing that kills me about the sammy line is the touch wiz. Yuck. Overall there all great phones.. Just preference on the user.

If the note 2 is the same price, then it's not worth getting the nexus 4. Like many other people mentioned it's only worth it when it's priced at $349 dollars. But, I think you already made up your mind....

I beg to differ. It's one of the highest spec phones out there and has proper Google support. It is a Nexus device and will be supported longer than most of other Android devices, it also gets updates directly from Google quickly as well as getting good developer support (less buggy ROM day one).
Galaxy Note's S Pen is also closed source and can't be used on AOSP I believe as it is attached to TouchWiz. I can be wrong on this.
Hell yea get this phone...do what you have to do and get it lol....buy it...trade for it...just make it happen lol...best phone out!!!!!!
Hey guys have a question. Ive been wanting another 7" tablet for awhile now and the Nexus 7 has always been at the top of the list. And just as I was about to finally get it all these rumors and announcements of the next nexus 7 come out. As you all know Staples has the 32gb on sale right now for 199, and theres a coupon code to get another $30 off. I have one on hold and reserved for me at my local Staples. So I am trying to decide if I should wait or buy now. If its true that the new one will be 299 as some rumors speculate, then the price difference between the 2 is about $140. As far as what I need in a tablet it would be pretty basic. Games, emails, web, etc. I dont need a camera, or LTE. So theres not much of a difference between them for what I need it for. One of my main concerns though is all these people talking about the performance drops, boot issues that some are having. But I also read that it might be just the 16gb version that are having issues. So anyway I figured here is a good place to ask to get some good info and advice. TIA.
Actually my 16 gb n7 performs quite good. But wait for next one.

Well it depends on you, the new nexus will have a snapdragon s4 quad core and 1080p also, and the 16gb I believe will start at $250 but correct me if I'm wrong. I have a 32gb WiFi and it runs like a champ. That sounds like a good deal for $170 as I got my 32gb for $250 so good luck on your choice.......rumor is Taiwan will get the new nexus 7 at end of month so you could check the web to see if you like or not!
I had a 16gb and its was laggy, but I decided to get the 32gb version when I broke the 16gb and got my square trade payout. The 32gb has been great, its stable, fast, and don't even have any light bleed.

Let's look at the facts. The new gen it's probably coming next week, but, if the rumours are true, it should be a little mre expensive, starting at 229$ aprox. If i were you, i would wait and see, and if the new Nexus it's worth the price, i would grab that one.

One way is to have a sharp eye out for deals and be ready to jump on them when they appear. I got my 2014 the 32 gb for $539 at Best buy about 6 days ago. Got Galaxy Gear for $209 at Best buy too.
