As for the rest of the hardware specifications, there is not much progress done on that front, since the only thing listed in the FCC documentation happens to be a 2,480mAh cell which will keep the slate powered. Taking into consideration that the Nexus 7 (2013) happened to arrive with a 3,950mAh battery right out of the box, it does not sound right at all for a next generation Nexus 7 to take a step backward where battery life is concerned. However, it must be noted that the second Nexus 7 tablet did feature a capacity cell that is a wee bit smaller.
We do know that this will be a 7” tablet that has support for GSM 850/1900, WCDMA 850/1700/1900 and 4G LTE bands 2, 4, 5,7 and 17. As for the other connectivity options, they will include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 6.5, and NFC.
