    Below video, you can watch the live event from Google, Sundar Pichai present Nexus 7 II and Android 4.3. As you can see now is an active countdown.

    WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT NEXUS 7 II?

    Google will officially launch the new Google Nexus 7 II and will reveal a preview of the latest OS Android 4.3, the rumors continue to multiply and we try to summarize them in this news. In the night, AndroidPolice has published an extensive photo gallery of the tablet Google and its packaging, with a video unboxing of a few minutes.From the pictures, we immediately notice that the Nexus 7 has a cover with soft-touch finish, similar to that seen in Nexus 10, and a very thin profile. In the box, which again has to do a new background Android, contains a guide, a USB cable and power supply.
    As if that were not enough, have emerged in the benchmark Network and the first pre-order on BestBuy, who did not wait for the presentation of the tablet Specifications and prices. The U.S. store, confirms the hardware features common in the last period, with prices of U.S. $229.99 for the 16GB version and U.S. $269.99 for the 32GB. The new Nexus 7 will have a 7-inch Full HD (1920 x 1200 pixels) with 323PPI, processor Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 quad-core 1.5GHz (graphics Adreno 320) and 2GB of RAM.Confirmed the dual cameras (5 megapixel rear and 1.2-megapixel front), Wi-Fi 802.11 a / ​​b / g / n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, USB 2.0, Slim Port and of course the Android operating system 4.3. The Nexus 7 II weighs just 317 grams and is 7.6 mm thick.
    We close with the benchmarks, which do not provide us with surprises: with Antutu get 19,883 points in Quadrant reaches 5,501 and in the 3DMark test at 1080p nearly 7,188 . In other words, if the technical specifications will be confirmed tonight, the new Nexus 7 Nexus 4 is a bigger, at least in terms of hardware, designed and built around Android 4.3 (for which will be very optimized).

    The next Nexus 7 the first official image

    The second generation of the Google Nexus 7 will be unveiled very soon. To confirm it "Best Buy", famous American chain of electronics, fixing the arrival of the tablet in U.S. stores on July 30, and in just over a week. Considering that Google will officially launch the new Nexus 7 July 24, in an event held in San Francisco, which will also show the latest news on Android 4.3 and Chrome, it is possible that the device is made ​​available online a few days before the scheduled date. The announcement of Best Buy, as you can see from the picture, depicts a 7-inch tablet (1920 x 1200 pixels) at a price of 229.99 dollars.
    The image of the tablet is compatible with the official, published last night by Twitter @ evleaks, showing us in detail the front and back of the new Nexus 7 with the Nexus logo in evidence and the two cameras. According to rumors spread in last period of the next tablet 7 inch Google will integrate a processor quad-core 1.5GHz processor, operating system Android 4.3, 5 megapixel rear camera and front 1.2 megapixel camera, wireless charging and Slim Port for video output. The starting price of $230 should refer to the model to 16GB of storage, while it is likely that the 32GB version will be sold at about $ 270.

    Last year, the Nexus 7 was sold with a starting price of $199, but the new model has a higher resolution display and (perhaps) even a faster processor, among other improvements. The market also has changed quite significantly over the last year. When it was launched, the first Nexus 7 was one of the tablet the cheapest available on the market although they have valid technical specifications, but in recent months Amazon, B&N, Hisense and other manufacturers have lowered the price of their tablet less than $200, Google also causing problems. The strategy of Mountain View for 2013 is therefore different: not compete on price, but on a top-level hardware at a cost medium-low.

    HTC One mini Video review

    HTC One mini comes with a cover of aluminum alloy, but now the front and sides are made ​​of Polycarbonate. Even the dimensions are not far away, with the mini that measures 132 x 63.2 x 25.9 instead of 137.4 x 68.2 x 9.3 mm and weighs 122 grams instead of 141. Also notable is the display. The mere fact data could be misleading because on paper we are talking about a 4.3 inch screen with resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels against a 4.7-inch 1920 x 1200 pixels, but if we look at the density discover that you pass by the extraordinary 468 PPI to 341 PPI, a value in absolute still high and anyway higher than the iPhone Retina display (326 PPI).
    Excellent also the hardware platform, consisting of a 400 SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon dual core CPU with 1.4 GHz (the HTC One makes use of a 600 quad-core Snapdragon 1.7 GHz) supported by 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of space for storage, unfortunately once again is not expandable via microSD, as in the original. The configuration, however, still seems more than enough to manage in a relaxed and fluid interface of Android, which is still in version 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and GUI proprietary HTC Sense 5.0 with the screen BlinkFeed.
    There is even the sound system developed as BoomSound always with Beats Audio and modules 3G/4G-LTE, WiFi and Bluetooth, but you lose the NFC sensor (there was not enough space for the antenna) and the infrared, while the front drops to 1.6 Mpixel webcam.Cleverly, however, HTC has not touched one of the flagships of the One, which is the rear camera and sensor technology UltraPixel 4 Mpixel with larger pixels, able to capture much more light than traditional ones, so as to ensure quality photos more high even if with a lower resolution, always flanked by Zoe functionality. The opening is always f/2.0 Focal and there is also a dedicated processor ImageChip2. The camera finally has retained the ability to capture 1080p Full HD movies.
    So it seems that HTC has done a great job, cutting where it was possible to hold size and price but without touching any of the key features that have characterized the experience of using the HTC offer One, which will then be made ​​simply accessible at a lower price, not yet announced. The HTC One mini will be released worldwide starting next August. In Italy will be available from September .

    Huawei MediaPad 7 Youth is now official and will be available on the market in Q3/2013. The new MediaPad 7 equipped with a display of 7 inches and a processor dual-core 1.6GHz. Dedicated especially to use multimedia (video playback, music, photos, etc etc), the new tablet MediaPad 7 Youth integrates a 4100mAh battery , which the company says will guarantee two weeks (maximum) in standby but did not provide data on autonomy when it is actually used.
    As we can read in the press release, Huawei MediaPad 7 Youth supports playback of Full HD video at 1080p, a feature that has led some to believe that media is integrated with a display resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, but we prefer to wait for the technical officer . The tablet could simply play 1080p video on the unit's display or an external monitor through an HDMI cable. Going back to the hardware specifications, the new MediaPad 7 will be built with aunibody aluminum case, capacitive touch display to 10 points of contact and operating system Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
    MediaPad 7 Youth supports WiFi and HSPA+, and you can also use it as a phone with support for voice calls, SMS and MMS. We do not know if Huawei decides to distribute this tablet in the United States, but it sure will come in Asia, Europe and the Middle East in Q3 of 2013.

    3 new Amazon Kindle Fire in 2014

    Amazon renews their ebook readers and tablets, launching of new models before the Christmas break taking advantage of the hectic year-end shopping. Although, the big online shop has not released details about the next-generation Kindle Fire,the guys at BGR seem to have taken away some interesting information. Amazon will release 3 new tablets this year, each with a display having a resolution higher than the model it will replace. So let's try to make some assumptions.

    Kindle Fire
    Now, Amazon sells its Kindle Fire entry-level tablet with 7-inch display (1024 x 600 pixels) at a price of 159 Euros. According to BGR, in 2014, the base model will have a display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels and probably the same price.
    Kindle Fire HD 7
    If the entry-level model will have an HD display, like Amazon will be able to differentiate the more expensive model? With a Full HD display. The model from 199 € will be a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels of a 1920 x 1200 pixels.
    Kindle Fire HD 8.9
    Finally, Amazon should replace the screen of 1920 x 1200 pixels of its 8.9-inch tablet, with one having a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. The current Kindle Fire HD 8.9 is sold at 269 euro and the goal is to propose the next version for the same price (or about).
    According to BGR, the new Kindle Fire will also feature a new design , a little 'edgier and more personal. The devices weigh less than the current models and the volume buttons and power will be moved to the rear. As happens for every indiscretion, even in this case it is necessary to have much caution, despite being a likely upgrade in "ropes" of Amazon. The tablet market, in fact, seems to be moving towards high-resolution screens, in general, and if Amazon wants to continue to be a leader in the field of e-books, magazines and films, will have to follow this trend or better lead.

    Pipo Max M6 Chinese Tablet with RK3188, RETINA display.

    Pipo Max M6 is equipped with a 9.7-inch display, Retina 2048 x 1536 pixels, in 4:3 IPS capacitive touchscreen with 10 points of contact to improve the user experience while using the tablet.Under the polycarbonate shell was installed a quad-core Rockchip RK3188 (Cortex A9) 1.6GHz with 2GB of RAM, Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11n WiFi, 3G modem (optional). The equipment is complettaa by two cameras (rear 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash and 2-megapixel front), mini HDMI output and Micro SD card slot.
    The new tablet Pipo Max M6 integrates 10,000 mAh battery, which will provide about 8 hours of battery life in video playback and 5-7 hours for gaming sessions. The new tablet Pipo mounts the operating system Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, but the Chinese company promises it will be (very) soon be updated to Android 4.2.2 JB.

    Rumors about specifications of the new Nexus 7? Is it true or is it just a hoax?

    Rumors about the new Nexus 7 specifications and design running on the Web for months now. The latest rumor starts directly from ASUS, and especially by an employee responsible for the technical and commercial via chat, that without too much delay has confirmed and revealed in the technical preview of the upcoming Google tablet. The conversation, which will translate below but you can read the original version in the screenshots at the end of the text, it is not credible but in any case is another piece of the puzzle.

    Why should an employee ASUS reveal a preview (via chat) to a user any technical specifications of the new Nexus 7? If the conversation really happened (and is said to date back to a few weeks ago), the assumptions in this regard may be three: the clerk simply copy-pasted at its most "credited" the new Nexus 7 taken from some site online, or is behind a strategic marketing operation, in which everything we see is finely orchestrated. The last possibility, that we tend to exclude is the goodness of the employee and the absurd lightness in communicating these specifications.

    In fact even the attendant ASUS is not credible: confuses the Q2 with Q3 (respectively the second and third quarter) and confirms the hardware features have emerged so far on Nexus 7, adding that the market availability is expected in July just when you expect the release of Android 4.3. We leave here under the original conversation. What do you think?
