After months of speculations, US-based tech giant Google finally revealed its highly-anticipated Nexus 7 tablet on Wednesday, July 24, 2013. The company’s latest device will be priced at $229 and will be available in the US from July 30, 2013. When it comes to UK and other countries, even though no official dates have been confirmed yet, Google did state that the new Nexus 7 will arrive in the next few weeks, presumably in August 2013.
