Nexus 7 Takes on Its Competitors in Comparison Table

By Azeem Ullah Hassan | 04, Jul 2012 | 28 Comments

The new Nexus 7 Tablet has got some killer hardware coupled with a respectable software, i.e. Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, which is already receiving positive reviews.

While its main competitors will be either Amazon Kindle Fire or Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, we think that it has enough skills to take on even the best in tablet business.

Does it succeed? let’s find out:

*some versions of this tablet support voice and video calls as well

I’ll mention it again that Ipad 3 and Transformer Prime aren’t Google Nexus 7’s main competitors, but still thanks to its great hardware, it can compete with those too in some, if not all categories.

I don’t like no external card option. Google is locking down the device this way.
PS: Nokia has accused Asus violating its Wifi patents in Nexus 7. Bah…

Though as amazing as it may sound Google Nexus may have tough competition beating iPad. One, because its from Apple! :) Two, there are reports floating around that Apple is building iPad mini which will hit the market around October, before the holiday season in the US. This iPad mini is positioned to challenge Google Nexus Tab and Microsoft Surface Tab, and even Amazon Kindle Tab. Read the details here: http://goo.gl/VpT1l
