Today we want to highlight something that has become increasingly clear when bracing for future comparisons between devices like the iPad mini 2 vs. the new Nexus 7 2nd generation tablet. That is the consideration of price for a 7 to 8-inch tablet, which we know is not an important factor only for the brand creating these tablets, but also for the user purchasing them. With two premium quality companies competing for the number one spot with a new release, there has to be a deal breaker for consumers. Apple has prided themselves in their efficiency, convenience and quality of all their devices. We have said it before, and we will say it again - their prices reflect this and rightly so. Apple has been in the business of consumer technology for many years. Google also strives to offer their consumers the same quality in product, style and functional capability with their Nexus products. So, with two high quality products being released, whose profit will soar to the top in consumer sales?  The determining factor is rumored to lie in the price. Both tablets are rumored to be equally pleasing, but it is-perhaps-the battle of price that will determine the consumer win. Many Apple consumers are loyal to the brand and will continue to be. But many people are going for both user friendly and budget friendly - as well as an open platform. Google has been known to win over iOS enthusiasts with their more "open" Android operating system. As for the price of the iPad mini 2, another reader stated in the same section that it is for sure going to be more than $249. Android lovers have to search no more, because among the specifications of the Nexus 7 2, we are expecting to see the new Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OS, 2 GB of RAM, a Qualcomm 800 CPU, and guaranteed updates of the operating system. And the price is considerably lower than that of the iPad mini 2. When evaluating the expectations for the iPad mini 2 and those of the Nexus 7 2 tablet, how many of the specs actually worth paying for in your point of view? The latest rumors regarding the second-generation Nexus 7 hint towards a release sometime in July, with nearly the same price as its predecessor.
