It will also change the Tegra Nvidia 3 chipset from its previous version for one of Qualcomm Snapdragon, and the manufacturer will of course remain Asus.
As for prices of the new Nexus 7Reuters tells us that "Google is still determining pricing plans," but that two things can happen; one of them is that Google keep the 199 euros of entry for the cheapest version; Another option is for this price to drop even to $149 What would this decision depend on? According to Reuters sources, everything will depend on whether Apple decides to launch a new version of the iPad for this year. The reason for 149 euros also has its reasons, and that is that Amazon has already updated its Kindle Fire tablets by lowering its price to 159 euros, so the 149 euros are perfect to compete in the tablet market and get a good pinch.
