While there have been rumours and reported sightings of a 32 GB version of the Nexus 7 in the retailer databases of CPW or Carphone Warehouse and another reseller, one never really knew for sure whether Asus was actually working on higher storage capacity variant of this awesome tablet, with the available options being limited to just 8GB and 16GB.
A Japanese youngster recently ordered a 16GB Nexus 7 from the Google Play Store, and was pleasantly surprised when he received a Nexus 7 32 GB in the mail, most likely due to a shipping error, considering how tight-lipped Asus and Google have both been about this version. Well, that puts all the speculation to rest.
This not only confirms that the 32GB version does really exist, but that it is available in retailer warehouses, ready to be shipped out once announced. It is expected to have the same technical specs of its lower capacity siblings, with just the storage memory increased.
Rumour has it that the Nexus 7 32GB will be launched on October 28th, which is coincidentally (or conveniently) just 2 days before Microsoft’s Windows 8 launch. Availability details across geographies is not known as yet, but is likely to be imminent.
