Every person is all Excited about Google breaking into the tablet marketplace with its innovative Nexus 7, that is set to be sold by the end of July. Based on its technical specs, this recent piece of Technology is prepared to douse the flame of Amazon's Kindle Fire, even though it isn't likely to take much of a bite out of Apple's tablet sales. Though the new Google tablet has restored the rumors that Apple may soon kick off a 7' iPad mini.
Both the Kindle Fire and the Nexus 7 will set you back $199 for an 8GB version. Google also has a $249 16GB variant, but the allure of the Google gadget goes beyond its cost.

Nexus 7 Disadvantages
Even though the Google Nexus 7 delivers a large amount of abilities designed specifically to tempt those searching for a gadget at a reasonable cost, but there are some drawbacks. Obviously some sacrifices are to be predicted with any reasonably priced tablet.
Storage: Even though Google is distributing each an 8 gb and a 16GB model of the Nexus 7, neither gadget has a microSD port, which means simply no expandable storage space. A few have complained that the lower-cost 8g model can be full after getting just Three to five movies, indicating that the 16gb Version would be the wiser selection.
Wireless: The shortage of hard drive space is supposedly resolved by online streaming and media via Google Play and Google Drive; however with out 3G / 4G cellular options, the data saved in the cloud won't always be available, which may become a source of annoyance for anyone utilizing their device while traveling. Media: Like the Amazon's kindle Fire, the main purpose of the Nexus 7 is to promote users to purchase media from the Google Play store; however the range of options is sort of modest in comparison of the Amazon market.

Expanding Nexus 7 Media Options
Even so, the company does offer approximately 500,000 applications at Google Play, thousands of films, over 3 million free electronic books & a huge selection of purchasable digital books. In addition, millions of melodies are for sale on Google music and the company is continuously adding to its collection. In case these restricted offerings aren't sufficient Nexus 7 users can easily build upon these media possibilities by installing a Kindle e book app, Amazon Cloud music app, and any Android-compatible apps.
