An employee from Asus have unveiled some features of the next version of the Nexus 7 tablet, which could be announced before the end of the month.

A netizen on Google+ network has obtained more information about the K009 model directly from Asus, that is to say, the next version of the Nexus 7 tablet. Of course, these statements have not been officially confirmed.

The device would still have a 7-inch slab with a definition of 1920x1080p. It is powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 600 chip supported by 2GB of RAM. According to previous reports, the Taiwanese manufacturer no longer wished to adopt the NVIDIA Tegra 3 SoC version embedded in the current generation.

Other details that have been collected include a storage capacity of 32 GB as well as 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC. The main camera is 5 MP and 1.2 MP front camera. The tablet also welcomes Android version 4.3. Moreover, this tablet would be released at the end of June or so.

This information would have been strangely collected during a conversation with the team of Asus support. The question is whether they are confirmed in the coming weeks or not.

Failing to be verified, these data are credible and give at least an interesting model to follow. The Nexus 7 HD could come out this summer at a price that we can imagine to be aggressive. Google had proposed the first model from 199 euros, so you can expect it to be costly. A first photo of the 7-inch tablet has already been published by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, that you can check below.
