It's supposedly designed to hold comfortably in landscape. It coincides with the chromecast release, where your primary layout is going to be landscape to match the t.v. display.
- mcintyre1994 13y agoIt definitely seems to be designed for landscape - just look at the orientation of the word Nexus on the back. I'm not sure I agree about the Chromecast thing though, I think it's more that the media they want you to buy is better in landscape (possible exceptions being books, a matter of preference, and some games). Chromecast seems to be about the device specifics not really mattering, it's not a mirror so it doesn't need to be the right way or even awake.
- psbp 13y agoThe youtube and netflix streaming aren't orientation specific, but the tab sharing and maybe even other media options like chrome games (http://www.chromeexperiments.com/ http://www.chromeexperiments.com/) are.
- mcintyre1994 13y agoAh, gotcha. I think I missed them demoing tablet chrome tab sharing, seems obvious it'd be included but I didn't think of it. Really neat though.
