The price of Google Nexus Tablet opens a fight between Android devices
Less than 24 hours, the folks at Google made in the I / O your tablet, Google Nexus 7, as we advance a couple of days. With this tablet Google is next in line to present a proper way to integrate Android devices under the brand Nexus. But this time not on their smartphones competes in the high line of the table, but precisely at a price far below ... the Android tablets of other brands, and of course, the iPad.
And although so far this war touches us, as a matter of geographical location, Google Nexus 7 is to enter the fray with the Kindle Fire, currently the most widely used Android tablet. To do nothing better to control the manufacture of tablet and OS at the same time and place at the same price $ 200. But if we come to Europe and with that price, even with the euro / dollar, the issue is going to get very ugly for the rest of Android competition. Apple may even also have a concern, because Google would be offering for very little money and promising a tablet with a size not currently handle them.
For the same reason, Microsoft Surface is going to have to make great efforts to be in the market. And is that prices still have not given, not expected to compete in any event with a tablet ajustadísima in price and, therefore, highly desirable in these times of crisis.
So while Apple seems well placed in the tablet world, the war will be established between Android devices. Now we just know what the other manufacturers would argue, and what their strategy. More than likely to focus on low cost devices, but maintain as far as possible, the same standards of quality that most high-end equipment. Only then can make a place among the general public.
