In the last couple of months there has been an avalanche of 7-inch tablets.

Today we have a look at the Nexus 7 which is a collaborative effort between Google and Asus.

Let’s get started.

Design.

There was no flexing to the screen when I put pressure on the screen.

The back of the device is covered by a grippy material overall this tablet doesn’t feel cheap.

Performance.

Under the hood we have a quad-core processor ram is 2GB.

In every day tasks the tablet performed very well.

Google has done a great job optimising the  Android Jellybean and the experience is fantastic.

Software.

The product comes with Android 4.2 otherwise known as Jellybean.

This is Google’s best version of Android hands down with some recoding and by using project butter smooth Google has managed to bring you the user the most slick version of Android yet with out the custom modification that happens with some Android products.

Conclusion.

I would Thoroughly recommend the Nexus 7 to anyone who is looking for a affordable yet surprisingly capable device.

Android 4.2 has never been better and for the price how can you say no?
