GoogleTM today announced three new Nexus devices in
small, medium and large all running Android 4.2, a new flavor of
Jelly Bean—which includes the latest version of Google Now and other new features.
Nexus 4 is the latest smartphone, developed together with LG. It has a
quad-core processor which means it's super fast, a crisp 4.7" (320
ppi) display for looking at photos and watching
YouTube, and with wireless charging you just set the phone down on a
charging surface to power it up, no wires needed. Snap shots up, down and in every direction to create
stunning 360-degree immersive experiences that you can share on
Google+ with friends and family—or you can add your Photo Sphere to
Google Maps for the world to see.
Android 4.2 brings other goodies like Gesture Typing, which lets
you glide your finger over the letters you want to type on the
keyboard—it makes typing fast, fun and a whole lot simpler. Android
4.2 also adds support for wireless display so you can wirelessly watch
movies, YouTube videos and play games right on your Miracast-compatible
HDTV.
Nexus 7 brings you the best of Google–YouTube, Chrome, Gmail, Maps–and
all the great content from Google Play in a slim, portable package
that fits perfectly in your hand.
Nexus 10 is the highest
resolution tablet on the planet with a 10.055" display at 2560-by-1600 (300ppi), that's over
4 million pixels right in your hands. It comes with a powerful battery
that will get you up to nine hours of video playback and more than 500
hours of standby time. With a set of front-facing stereo speakers, you
can watch movies right from your Nexus 10. With Android 4.2, you can add multiple users and switch
between them instantly right from the lockscreen.
On November 13, users in the U.K, France, Germany, Italy and Spain will be able to purchase music from the Google Play store and add up to 20,000 songs—for free—from their existing collections to the cloud for streaming to Android devices or web browsers.
