[GIZ]Nexus 7: This Is Google’s New Nexus Tablet - Page 9

post #81 of 259
Looks like the competition in the cheap tablet market just heated up. Wonder what Amazon is going to counter with now.

The Transformer Infinity fixes all those GPS/WiFi issues, plus it sports a newer Tegra 3 SoC to power the 1080p resolution screen. Price is expected to be $500 instead of the rumored $600 due to lower IPS panel costs.

Hmm, should have expected that it doesn't say "RUMOR" in the title. It is Gizmodo after all.

Anyway I wasn't interested enough to read the article, but only to see a synopsis of it.

I'm actually highly interested about this alleged Google-controlled Jellybean updates starting from the Nexus line. If that is true, then expect to see a very short update window for current and upcoming Android devices.

Google doesn't want fragmentation( eg. that Tegra cpu). Yet they use a Tegra cpu..(No complaints). But really?

There's no issue using a different SoC for this. Android pretty much supports MIPS, ARM and now x86 architectures easily. The "fragmentation" part is part due to the OEM skins and Android version, part due to the lack of refinement by app developers. Any competent dev can easily support at least 80-90% of all Android devices regardless of size, version and hardware if the app coding is done right.

A supposed "feature rumor" of 4.1 or Jelly Bean is that Google is separating UI elements from the Android core to make it easier for manufacturers to implement their custom UI which should help get the updates out of the oven quicker. Then I guess it'll be up to the carriers to block the updates.

For $199 this is an instant buy and a better deal than the Kindle Fire.
