They're releasing a big expensive tablet in 2014 and the top-end storage size is 32GB? Really?



Well they are a cloud company. They probably just expect you to not store anything locally.

No company puts a good amount of storage in their device for a reasonable price. It's a problem on par with battery life.


The Nexus 6 has 32 and 64GB options. I'm a bit disappointed that they don't match this with the Nexus 9.


Excitedly waiting for a new Android tablet but 32GB max is too little for that price tag.

I suppose Google expects more photo/video taking on phones vs tablet hence lower storage?


They might well release a 64GB version later. They released a 32GB version of the N7 2012 some months after initial release and removed the 8GB version.


It used to be you'd upgrade that with an SD card, but now that's not an option? That's a little odd.


Where did you get that this is expensive? I don't see a price on the page anywhere.


It's not stated on that page yet but other news articles have prices. $400 for 16GB and $600 for 32GB.


I'm not rich at all and would have to save for a little while to afford one of those, but I don't feel like $400 is expensive at all for one such device.


For the record, I wasn't stating it was expensive (that was a different person). I was just responding to "I don't see a price on the page" part.
