As popularity continues to grow for the 7-inch tablet market, rumours about the 2nd Generation of Google Nexus 7 tablet have been swirling about. Some of these rumours include:

  • A Qualcomm processor (instead of the NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor in the previous version) for better power
  • Higher resolution screen
  • Thinner bezels and slimmer design
  • Due in July
  • Price drop from $199 to $149
  • Previous model to be discontinued

Here in Malaysia the 1st Generation Asus Google Nexus 7 continues to be priced around RM899 to RM1000 and above, so no news yet whether the $50 price drop will affect the price of the 2nd Generation tablet in Malaysia. Even if the tablet gets released globally in July, you can probably expect the tablet in Malaysia after the initial launch date.
