It saddens me to say that it has been 1 year and 2 months since Google released a Nexus tablet, and almost 2 full years since the Nexus 10 was announced, but the sadness can stop there as tomorrow will be the day when the new HTC-made Nexus 9 tablet is announced.
According to Forbes, the tablet will be up for pre-order on October 17th, rather than a release which is set to happen on November 3rd and that there is no scheduled event for the tablet. It’s also very interesting to see that the Nexus 6 is also set to be announced tomorrow via a blog post, just like the Nexus 9. As for pricing, they are reporting the 16GB version will cost $399 and the 32GB LTE version will be $499. Oddly enough, both versions will come with microSD card expansion, something Nexus devices haven’t had in a very long time.
Specs for the tablet include an 8.9-inch 2048×1440 display (4:3 screen ratio), 64-bit NVIDIA Tegra K1 SoC, 8MP rear, 3MP front camera and a “brushed aluminum” rather than the rumoured all-metal body design to make it cost less.
So with that said, are you buying?
