I have looked but can't find it in the specs.

No, the Nexus 7 comes with bluetooth 3.0.

Hope this helps.

Not really, but thanks anyway.
I guess there will be some proper reviews in the next couple of weeks.

Yes it does. Look under the specs on the Google web page. Its right under wireless....

Teardown
I am surprised that there hasn't been any teardown reports posted yet.
ifixit.com flew to Australia to get an iPad 3 when it was released and did a teardown report from a local hotel immediatly after getting his hands on one. I am surprised that they didn't attend the Google I/O and do a teardown on the Nexus 7

The device also packs in Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, and has a GPS chip, NFC, gyroscope, compass, and accelerometer.

[Q] Wireless Charge Dock

Hey everyone.
Reason, I started this thread. Is to find out what everyone is using. When it comes to the wireless docks out there.. I'm currently looking at the Nokia one. What is everyone else looking into? Currently awaiting the release of the cube for the N4. Not available yet tho.

That one looks good too. I was reading around to see if the palm touchstone works.. But it doesn't! I want something like the stone.

At the moment, no one really knows anything about the official orb. I didn't want to wait to unleash the potential of this awesome technology so I bought a Maxell wireless charging mat. It works perfectly, and if you're interested then I just suggest getting one now. When the official one comes out you can just place it somewhere else in the house/office, which is what I'm going to do.

That orb looks sweet. Someone had a great idea, get the orb for the car and place it on the dash
The mat would work for my home or office. Looking around for some what and orb like the palm stone.

Really? I was reading the reviews on Amazon and people were complaining about it cutting off and that it has really bad range. I loved my 700's but now I might look into the 730.

It's actually really durable. It also has 10 hours of battery life, and it vibrates whenever you get a call. It's an awesome headset.

The description at the bottom states it comes with a universal power supply. That might mean it does have a US adapter.
Another thing I've noticed is I don't see a "qi" logo anywhere. Does that mean its not certified?

Almost pulled the trigger but the power port's position seems really awkward, it should be on the opposite side imo
Which do you think is more worth it? This or the Zens one? They are both around the same price...

(q) micro usb cable purchase

I'm going to replace the micro USB cable that came with my Nexus 4. (The one from the stock charger). I need a cable which charges as fast as the stock one. I tried getting a cable from Mediabridge but they don't ship outside US.
I found those two on Amazon. They're almost the same, the one being 3.0 while the other one is 2.0. Is it the same which one I choose, and are those cables suitable for charging my nexus 4 with stock charger? Thanks.

2.0

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
2.0 Has issues with connections and the charging speed is not so good.
3.0 does not fit at all.
The best one is the Fosmon Flat Cable which is pretty good for its price, I even have one myself.
It is 2.1 AMPs out which does a good speedy charge on the Nexus 4, I even own a orange one and it is just so good.
