Google is introducing two new versions of the Google Nexus 7 tablet: one with 32GB of storage, and another with integrated 3G. And as expected, the company is killing of the 8GB model and adjusting prices.
Starting today you can pick up a 16GB Nexus 7 tablet for $199 and a 32GB model for $249 in the US, UK, Australia, Japan, and other countries in Europe. The 4G model will go on sale November 13th for $299.
That’s the price for an unlocked tablet which can be used on any HSPA+ mobile network. Google says that includes 200 GSM providers including AT&T in the US.
You can pick up the new WiFi-only models from the Google Play Store or from retail partners including Walmart, Newegg, and Office Depot.
The basic specs for Google’s 7 inch tablet haven’t changed. The Asus-built device features an NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 1280 x 800 pixel display. Right now the tablets ship with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, but they should be updated to Android 4.2 soon.
