A well known source of smartphone and tablet leaks, known as evleaks, has now leaked what appears to be the first press image of the upcoming Nvidia Shield tablet.

While evleaks did not share any details regarding the specifications of the Nvidia Tegra Shield tablet, the picture shows a design that is quite similar to the Nvidia Tegra Note tablet. The picture also shows that it has front placed stereo speakers as well as a front face camera.

As we mentioned in our earlier report, Nvidia's Shield tablet should be based around a 7.9-inch 2048x1536 screen, Nvidia's 2.1GHz clocked Tegra K1 SoC with 2GB of RAM and 5GHz WiFi support, something that Nvidia needs for its Gamestream technology.

While there is still no official launch date for the Nvidia Shield tablet, judging from this and earlier reports regarding specifications, we are quite sure that we will see in in the near future.
