Google Nexus 7 tablet, much rumoured online, was confirmed by the company in
California. It features wireless charging, 4G connectivity, a screen that
offers 323 pixels per inch, and is thinner and lighter than its predecessor.

Google
claimed it could offer up to 10 hours of battery life, and that its 1.5GHz
processor was 80 per cent faster than the original model. Memory has been
doubled to 2GB, and it also features wirless charging, the latest version of
Bluetooth for compatibility with wearable technologies such as watches, and
NFC.
The
144x200x9.15mm tablet is lighter than its predecessor, at 299g with Wi-fi and
310g with 4G LTE. The 1920 x 1200 HD display also comes with 5MP rear and 1.2MP
front cameras, as well as dual stereo speakers.
The
device will also be the first to feature the new version of Android, 4.3, which
includes individual users profiles, which can be restricted so that, for
instance, children cannot see in-app purchasing options that could land their
parents with huge bills.
