Rumor - Google and Asustek Computer working on US$99 Nexus 7 tablet for the end of 2012

The Google Nexus 7 is at present, the most interesting tablet offer in the context of Android tablets that are in the price range of less than 250 euro. The tablet, distributed by Google and manufactured by Asus provides a hardware platform updated and very handsome,  due to its quad-core Tegra 3 processor and software support on a highest level. 

Google and Asus may have already planned to renew the offer of their low-cost tablet, preparing two new versions of the Nexus 7 designed to reach the market by the end of 2012. We clarify that the facts given below should be considered as simple rumor waiting for official confirmation . 

More specifically, the two new versions of the Nexus 7 would be characterized by thinner body and the integration of TN panels manufactured by HannStar Display .

One of the two models will cost $ 199 , while the other will go down to very affordable price of $99. For both models the arrival on the market is expected by the end of this year.

Insufficient information on the remaining technical characteristics of the two tablets, but any introduction, according to some speculation, may be motivated by a desire to counter attack the Apple iPad Mini offer.
