Google established itself as a premier force in the industry when they built Android from the ground up many years ago. However, it wasn’t until the release of the original Google Nexus One that they also managed to solidify themselves as a hardware maker as well – albeit, it’s despite the fact that another company (HTC) actually manufactured the device. Still, being graced with the “Nexus” moniker has its advantages – like being the first to feature a totally new Android experience. When we dig down further, the Nexus name continues to be the single point in the Android world where everything seemingly converges in the right proportions to offer users that authentic Android experience.Previously, all Nexus devices released thus far have been smartphones, but this time around, Google decided to bring its Nexus to the table sphere. Catching some people by surprise, the Google Nexus 7 tablet redefines what it means to be a budget tablet. Oh no people, this isn’t a quick rush out the door kind of job. Rather, this love child between Google and Taiwan-based ASUS is aiming to broaden the appeal of Android tablets as a whole. Furthermore, it doesn’t skimp out in the hardware, as it boasts a quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor – much like some of its highly respected brethren. And did we mention that it’s the first tablet to feature Android 4.1 Jelly Bean? Riding into the sunset at top gear, let’s see how far the Google Nexus 7 tablet is able to go.

We cannot stress about it enough, but ASUS has done an excellent job with the design of the Google Nexus 7 – especially when you factor in the kind of pricing constraints they had to deal with. Honestly, this isn’t the first time we’ve come across a decently made 7-inch tablet, as both the Amazon Kindle Fire and NOOK TABLET showed us already. However, the Google Nexus 7 manages to inch out over its rivals, as it embodies all the qualities we’d expect to find in a device bearing the Nexus brand.
Although it maintains a conventional design from the onset, we actually find it more comfortable to hold and use since its edges are rounded to conform perfectly to our hands as we grasp it. On top of that, the rear casing has a tough rubbery feel to it, allowing us to not only have a proper grip in the hand, but it also maintains a clean appearance at all times. Sure, it’s constructed out of mostly plastic, but you can rest peacefully at night knowing it’s the tough kind that’ll withstand most normal wear and tear. Rounding things out, it obliterates its competition by donning a super skinny (0.41” thick) frame and lightweight (11.99 oz) feel in the hand. Essentially, when you add in all of those elements, we’re still at awe in wondering how ASUS has managed to pull it off – even more taking into account the price that it’s flaunting.
