We know that Google plans to finally launch its Nexus tablet sometime in June, following a delay from the initial May launch, due to design and cost issues. Their goal was to launch a powerful 7-inch tablet under the $200 mark and now that everything has fallen into place, they will be unveiling it at this year’s Google I/O conference for developers on June 27. TechnoBuffalo have also managed to secure some additional information about the tablet. According to their trusted source, it’s now confirmed that the Nexus tablet will be made by Asus and will have a 7-inch form factor. One would have initially come to expect that either Samsung or Motorola would manufacture Google’s first tablet.
The Nexus tablet will be unveiled sometime during the three day conference and developers attending the conference will walk away with one. This is not confirmed, but there is talk that the Nexus tablet will come with Android 5.0 or Jelly Bean pre-loaded, which make sense, since developers have had access to the Motorola XOOM, since a long time now and it was the first tablet to receive ICS update as well so handing out this new tablet with ICS doesn’t really serve any purpose. This also fits in with the rumour that Google would announce Jelly Bean sometime in June or July.
