Google has announced an update on the highly anticipated Nexus 7 Android Jelly Bean tablet on its Google Play support area, with a detailed and full breakdown of when to expect your ordered device.
Lots of Google Nexus pre-orderers have been twiddling their thumbs and pulling their hair out over when the new Nexus Jelly Bean tablet will be released by Google, with some even stating that the tablet has been pushed back and some waiting anxiously with no contact.
For us in the UK, Google states:
“All Nexus 7 8GB orders will ship by July 20 (BST). All Nexus 7 16GB orders placed through June 30 (BST), will ship by July 20 (BST). The remaining Nexus 7 16GB orders will ship next week.”
So basically if you ordered your Google Nexus 7 in the UK your tablet will be shipping to you on the 20th of July unless you ordered a 16GB version, which will arrive after the 30th of July 2012.
Google will email you with a tracking number when the device is shipping and you can trace the rest of its journey until it falls into your sweaty, wanting hands.
For those of us who have ordered the 16GB version after June the 30th you can expect the item to ship one week after the 8GB model
Its also a similar situation for our US, Canadian, and Australian cousins:
In the US:
“We’ve shipped all standalone Nexus 7 8GB orders (e.g.: those without a case, charger or Nexus Q). By the end of day on July 19 (PDT), we will have shipped all standalone Nexus 7 16GB orders placed through July 11 (PDT), and upgraded these orders to overnight shipping. We will process the remaining standalone Nexus 7 16GB orders by the end of next week with overnight shipping.”
“If you ordered your tablet with a case, charger or Nexus Q, your Nexus 7 will ship this week with overnight shipping, in some cases ahead of the rest of your order. But don’t worry, the rest of your order will be on its way soon.”
In Canada:
“We’ve shipped all Nexus 7 8GB orders. We are in the process of shipping Nexus 7 16GB orders and will ship them in 1-2 weeks.”
In Australia:
“All Nexus 7 8GB and Nexus 7 16GB orders will be fulfilled by the end of day on July 19 (AEST) and will arrive in 3-5 days.”
We are very excited to get our hands on the Nexus 7 when it arrives and we will run you through Jelly Bean and the tablet as soon as we get it.
