To be honest I like the live blogging more. The Verge has some good teams, comments are funny sometimes.

I cant help it. 'The Internship' is to blame

Perhaps the Nexus 5? Perhaps Jelly Bean 4.3?

Perhaps the Nexus 5? Perhaps Jelly Bean 4.3?

Yeah, I reckon they will probably announce JB 4.3 as well. Will have to wait and see...

 

[JimboBob]

Perhaps the Nexus 5? Perhaps Jelly Bean 4.3?

Yep, I think 4.3, Nexus 7, Moto X and MORE services.

 

[Analog Revenant]

Yep, I think 4.3, Nexus 7, Moto X and MORE services.

MotoX will most likely be announced on 1 Aug in a joint event with the Motorola division. (but would be cool to see it tonight )

So, anyone watching / reading the live blogs (I'm doing both)?

 

[Maverick Jester]

Seems that the live feed is slightly behind...

 

[Maverick Jester]

Updated Nexus 7 confirmed...

I don't get the fuss over a 7" tablet. IMO too big to be a phone, too small for gaming, surf or use as an ebookreader.

 

[Shake&Bake]

If anyone's upgrading - I want to buy your old Nexus10

 

[Maverick Jester]

New Nexus 7 seems rather nice:

Qualcomm S4 Pro chipset
2GB RAM
Dual LTE
5.1 channel audio
Better battery life
Android 4.3

Oh, and Android 4.3 will have user-restricted profiles- similar to the Blackberry Balance in a way (separation of specific apps and data dependant on profile).

It's way more portable, pocketable, and easier to hold for extended periods.

It is a nice middle ground between laptop / notebook and tablet. The iPad mini is the best sized IMO...

 

[Maverick Jester]

Android 4.3 finally provides Bluetooth LE support...

 

[Maverick Jester]

Wow, streaming of 1080p video via Netflix on Android 4.3

 

[Maverick Jester]

Nexus 4, 7, 10 and Galaxy Nexus will start receiving the 4.3 updates from today. Also, Afrikaans (even thoigh they spelt it Africaans) and Zulu support comes to Android.
