The new Nexus 7 that was acquired by a lucky Reddit user has now been benchmarked every which way as well as having the internal specs of the device confirmed by the guys over at Android Police.

The specs for the new Nexus 7 which is expected to be announced in a little over 12 hours, contains many of the specs that were being rumoured, however it’s been confirmed that the tablet DOES NOT contain 4GB of RAM, instead it carries only 2GB, although that is nothing to sneeze at. So, the full specs :

  • 7″ 1920×1200 Display
  • 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 Quad-core CPU
  • 2GB RAM
  • 32GB On-board storage (a 16GB Version is expected as well)
  • Android 4.3
  • Codename : Razor

The new Nexus 7 has been run through a variety of benchmarks –
AnTuTu – 19883
Quadrant – 5501
3D Mark Ice Storm – 7188

The device is described as having a rubberised back, similar in feel to that of the Nexus 10. The offifical announcement for what we hope is the Nexus 7 as well as Android 4.3 should begin at 2am AEST tomorrow morning. Hopefully we’ll be able to pre-order it straight away.
