Google-Nexus-7-1-600x450

Rumours of a new Nexus 7 are heating up again. This time, it’s a report from the Economic Daily out of Taiwan, which has some info on specs, as well as a tentative release date. The post claims that the new Nexus 7 will have a 1920 x 1200 LCD display, 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro (APQ8064) processor, LTE support, 3,950 mAh battery, 1.2 megapixel front-facing camera, 5 megapixel rear-facing camera, 2GB of RAM and storage options of 16GB and 32GB. These are very similar to the specs that were reported by an Asus Support Rep earlier this month. However, since nothing has been confirmed yet, this is still firmly in the rumour category.

The other big point to take from the Economic Daily report is the suggestion that Google and ASUS will have the tablet available by the end of July. This could mean that an announcement is just around the corner. This is all just rumour and speculation at this point, so it should all be taken with a large grain of salt, but it’s definitely worth keeping an eye out in the next few weeks. We will definitely be following this story, and will make sure to bring you any confirmation as soon as we get it.

When do you think a new Nexus 7 will be released…or will there actually be a new one? Do these specs interest you?
