Specs Shoot Out Battle: Nexus 7 vs Nexus 7 2

The Google Nexus 7 was the king of 7-inch tablets last year. What are the difference between the new Nexus 7 and the old version of Nexus 7? Is it worth to upgrade or buy the new Nexus 7?

 In my opinion, I love the concept of the older Nexus 7 with its tegra powered chipset that can play tegra games which aren't available on any non-tegra devices. The new Nexus 7 has the Qualcomm snapdragon S4 pro which is faster than the tegra 3.

Bottomline: is it worth to upgrade or buy the new Nexus 7? The answer is a big YES! There's nothing much to say about the new Nexus 7. For me, it's the new king of 7-inch tablets.

So what are your thoughts about the new Nexus 7?
