The 32GB Google Nexus 7 accidentally given to a customer
Imagine paying for the 16GB model of the Asus built
Google Nexus 7 and finding out that you actually received the 32GB capacity tablet by mistake. This
actually happened to a lucky consumer in Japan who might very well be the only person in the world who has purchased the 32 GB variant of the Android 4.1 powered unit. It actually works out to 27.5GB of storage for the lucky buyer.
While Google has yet to
confirm or deny that a 32GB model of the Google Nexus 7 is coming, the accidental sale of the 32GB tablet confirms earlier screenshot leaks showing such a device in
Carphone Warehouse's inventory system and on the
web site of other retailers. This will be the first holiday season that thew Google Nexus 7 will go head to head against the sequel of the tablet that started the low-priced 7 inch category, the
Amazon Kindle Fire 2, and it's higher-end
Amazon Kindle Fire HD. Considering that there is no microSD slot for expanding memory on the Google Nexus 7, the 32GB model would certainly see a good share of buyers come its way.
The 8GB model of the Google Nexus 7 is priced at $199 while the 16GB version is tagged at $249.00. The 32GB model could come in at or slightly below $300.
