Google Nexus 7 2nd generation

[masotime]

I suspect there'll be a LTE version for Singapore as well. However, the big question is when.

 

[lordlad0]

I have the entire nexus collection (San nexus s) so I'll definitely be getting this one too...already seems like a good upgrade....the price is abit higher than the 1st gen bug I think not that much...

The $229 version of the tablet also includes 2GB of RAM (up from 1GB in the original) and 16GB of storage. A 32GB version is available for $269. The 4G LTE version of the tablet will include 32GB of storage and cost $349. As with every Nexus device since the Nexus One, the newest member of the family doesn't include an SD card slot for storage expansion. The United States will receive the device soon, Canada, Germany, Spain, the UK, Japan, South Korea, France, and Australia will get it in the "coming weeks," and other countries will follow soon after.

Sian no lte for sg

Eh strange that the battery capacity for the new Nexus 7 is lower than the original. Not that much of a concern though.. And it seems Android 4.3 didn't really add a lot of oomph. I think we should be able to use the LTE sets for UK in SG when it launches there in "the coming weeks".

 

[Cryogenist]

Wa. UK will only start selling in September. The LTE model have to wait till then.

 

[weeguy]

Looks like another long wait for the LTE version. Sigh.

From the new Nexus 7 product page

Optional 4G LTE

North America:
4G LTE: 700/750/850/1700/1900/2100 MHZ (Bands: 1/2/4/5/13/17)
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8/10)
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

Europe:
4G LTE: 800/850/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 MHz (Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/7/20)
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8/10)
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

Singapore's LTE Bands by operators are:

M1: 1,800MHz & 2,600MHz
SingTel: 1,800MHz & 2,600MHz
StarHub: 1,800MHz

Looks like we'll have to wait for the European version to be out.

Just show of hands, who's getting the WiFi version?

Or everyone is waiting for the LTE version?

Very curious, everyone have an extra 3G/LTE SIM card to use in the tablet ar?

 

[speedygonz]

Definitely LTE for me. I'm just curious whether the new N7 supports telephony (voice-calls/sms) though. That'll be an added bonus but not a deal breaker.

normal wifi 16gb...can tab my LTE s4.
no pt get 2 cards pay 2 bills.

Actually, I planning to use N7 for my studies. Reading notes(PDF, PPT), taking notes.

My laptop died. Just getting a cheap tablet to "tong" for my final year.
No point getting a laptop now.


My school have WiFi, but it always not stable. Sometimes can connect, sometimes not. So having a 3G/LTE is quite useful, should that idiotic network got congested.
