Pocket-Lint: Google has just announced its Nexus 7 tablet and we have been among the lucky few to get a play with the latest piece of Nexus kit. The tablet was announced at Google I/O 2012 in San Francisco.
Priced at just £159 for the 8GB model, or £199 for 16GB, it is one of the cheapest and most powerful tablets available, or will be when it lands in mid-July. Manufactured by Asus, you'll be able to pre-order and buy the 8GB direct from Google Play, however Asus will sell the 16GB version through its own channels.
Google has begun the global rollout of its brand new mobile operating system, Android 5.0 Lollipop. Android Lollipop is the newest mobile operating system from the company which can also support 64 bit configurations. The most interesting and hyped about part of Android 5.0 Lollipop is the new Material Design, which we’ve seen on the Nexus 9 and Nexus 6. While everybody is cheering once the Android 5.0 Lollipop update hits their devices, there are constant bug reports flowing in to Google.
A couple of bugs and errors have already been found in the Android L Developer version. Read the article to know more about this.
We know that it is a beta version of the upcoming Android L and that's why it has some errors and bugs. Assuming that all these bugs will be gone once the final consumer version is released, what do you think about 'L'?
No, it was just to let people who want to get the preview version know that they should wait because there are some serious bugs. I mean it will be hard to use your nexus 5 as a daily driver with Android L beta installed.
ChipLoco: "The new Nexus 7 is a great little tablet, as we found out in our detailed review. But a few early buyers haven’t been going through the same experience we had with it. A few weeks ago we wrote about many users complaining about issues on their new Nexus 7 and its touch screen. There would be random ghost taps and the keyboard wouldn't respond the way it should to taps. Luckily Google was quick to respond to this issue."
