This year’s Google I/O was the year of the Nexus, and right before I set off on my vacation, Google announced the Nexus 7. If you haven’t heard about it yet, here’s a few links to get you started:

From the moment this Jelly Bean treat was announced, we all wanted to get our hands on one. Since we left you guys hanging for a couple weeks, we figured why not reward a lucky reader with one of their own.

That’s right! We’re going to be giving away a brand spanking new Galaxy Nexus 7 tablet, and all you have to do is tell us what feature(s) make the Nexus 7 a winner in your book: price, Jelly Bean, size, etc.

Leave your comment below and then share this post on your favorite social network(s) and you’ll be one step closer to possibly owning your very own Nexus 7, courtesy of Cult of Android.

This contest is for the 8GB version and is open to U.S. residents only. Since Nexus 7 devices won’t be shipping for a few weeks, we’ll keep this contest open until Monday July 23, 11:59pm EST. Don’t forget, when you leave your comment, make sure your account is linked to a working email address so we can contact you should you win. Good Luck!
