We’re not too sure why you’d ever need it, but we know you’d want it: 720p video recording on the Nexus 7′s front (and only) camera. One of the great developers over at XDA-Developers worked out that the camera natively supports 720p recording, but Google left out the media profiles allowing its functionality. Now that [...]

The colours available are Pink, Light Gray, Teal, Yellow, Green and Dark Gray, with not all the colours being available from the looks at this stage. Pricing [...]

We saw the tweet from Asus a few days ago stating that the Jelly Bean update for the Asus Transformer TF300 would be rolling out in the next two weeks, well we’ve just been advised by Angelo that he is starting to receive the update on his tablet right now. He is using an Australian [...]

Thanks to Scott, one of our regular podcasters and behind the scenes contributors here at Ausdroid, I have this awesome image to share with you.

If HTC can do it why not Asus? That seems like a very good question and it looks like Asus Australia thinks so as well. In response to a question by Facebook user Bryn Parrott in regards to how to get a HDMI Cable for his Transformer Infinity Asus advised that an online store to [...]

EDIT Looks like the ‘Official’ tag being used for these is completely wrong, they’re actually from HipStreet.. Which makes the prices seem even more insanely over the top. Thanks to Droid-Life for the heads-up. Looks like Asus and Google may be set to release a lot more official accessories for the Nexus 7 beyond the [...]

I’ve been tweeting at the @AsusAU twitter feed and posting on their Facebook wall for a while now asking about accessories for the Nexus 7 and received no response, however last night @AsusAU finally must have gotten sick of me or they actually got some information but they finally replied with some information, which will [...]
