Introducing the ASUS-built Google Nexus 7, Google’s first ever 7-inch tablet that runs on Android 4.1 Jellybean. The Nexus 7 is powered by a 1Ghz NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor with a 12-core GPU. It was officially launched in Malaysia on September 21, 2012. We’ve just gotten our hands on both the 8GB and 16GB versions. Expect a honest, definitive review from us very soon.
For just a relatively inexpensive price of RM999 (although it really should be cheaper, considering the US-based price point) and pretty impressive spec list, the Nexus 7 may just be the best 7-inch tablet for you. Stay tuned.
