Today, Google announced the release of a brand-new tablet named the Nexus 7! What makes this tablet so special? It is the first “Google” branded tablet on the market! And it is incredibly well priced at $199! This is going to set the bar high for other manufacturers who have been making Android tablets (many of which I consider to be sub-par). It is going to offer users the official “Android” experience as Google meant it to be! Check out the specs & more below:

I'm a huge Android fan and also the founder of the DroidLessons website. I started obsessing about the Android platform as soon as I got my HTC EVO phone in mid-2010. Ever since then, I have been obsessed with learning all that I can about the Android OS and sharing that knowledge with my friends and family.
