Google has today published two new adverts for its new Nexus 7, two months after the original made its YouTube debut. Both clips showcase the tablet’s ability to be a great tool for students — but in unique ways you may not have thought of before.

LG has today announced that its new G Pad 8.3 tablet is coming the U.K. and Ireland before Christmas. The device will be available for around £260 ($414), which makes it just £60 more expensive than Google’s new 16GB Nexus 7. That’s not bad when you consider the G Pad 8.3 has a bigger display, a bigger battery, and a faster processor.

Google is expected to unveil the much-anticipated Nexus 5 tomorrow, but thanks to a new hands-on video, you don’t need to wait to see the device in all its glory. The 7-minute clip below showcases the handset’s new design from every angle, and gives us a sneak peek at its Android 4.4 KitKat software.

We’re still eagerly anticipating the invitations to Google’s Nexus 5 event, where we’re also expecting to see the launch of Android 4.4 KitKat. But according to whispers going around the search giant’s Launchpad developer event in Europe this week, the big event is less than a week away.

Google is in the process of rolling out a rather helpful new update for its official Maps application, bringing users “quick access” to flight, hotel and restaurant reservations – providing they are linked to your Google account.
