i swear they laced the N7 with some sort of drug.... Can't put it down!! My poor phones are getting no love :-/
[Nexus 7 General] rkanwar:
Haha +1 on that. The only time I'm away from my nexus is if I'm at work where I can't use anything except the checkout tills or self serve checkout loll
[Nexus 7 General] slabby:
Very happy. No issues with mine (first one I bought).
[Nexus 7 General] Argent36:
As against the 7" size as I traditionally have been - I find that I grab this instead of my 10" HP TouchPad running ICS (which runs great BTW)

but I also find myself using the N7 more like a large phone (I am generally using it in Portrait unless I'm watching video) than my touchpad - I actually don't like the tablet interface on a device this small - so I changed it back to the stock 'phone' interface.

TL;DR - I like my N7 better than my TP
[Nexus 7 General] dparrothead1:
To OP. Yes.
[Nexus 7 General] dudeydudeo:
WOW!

I'm completely overwhelmed by all the positive comments on the Nexus 7! Really tempted to get one now. The only thing stopping me is that Play Store is not available in my country and I've a major exam ahead. If I were to get the Nexus 7 now, I bet I won't be able to put it down like you people ><
[Nexus 7 General] r0zj0k3r:
Honestly, be patient and wait until they sort out all of the manufacturing flaws, that exist in well over half (probably closer to all) the devices. Don't get me wrong, the Nexus 7 is close to perfect Imo.
[Nexus 7 General] krackerjac:
Best android device I've ever owned

I think I might like it more than my Sammy 3
[Nexus 7 General] whoamanwtf:
I love mine, it is fast as hell. Has all the features I could want... I love to play games on it the screen size is perfect to actually hold while playing games a 10 incher is just too large to hold comfortably.
[Nexus 7 General] samajid:
Isnt 8 / 16 gb a lil too less
[Nexus 7 General] All~G1:
I have to agree with mudbuddha - the N7 has changed the mobility and efficiency of my daily routine and career.
[Nexus 7 General] eazyweazy3:
Anyone else using this where there is no wifi connection? How's that going for you? What do you do on it without wifi?

Fox fi has been a pain in the ass so far to say the least and the nexus was pretty much useless on my 8 hour drive to San Diego.

Great buy

I have loved my N7 and the support from Google as well.

The 1st unit I received had a corner of the LCD broken, but current one has been flawless until recently.

I've started to experience unresponsive touch, but from what I've read, this is a software issue.

Overall, I would definitely recommend the Nexus 7 to anyone looking for a speedy android device.
[Nexus 7 General] dadrc:
Love it.

I consider 7" the perfect size for a tablet, the Nexus 7 is probably the Android device with the most bang for your buck, my device has none of the problems other people have, so what's not to like? If you need 3G connectivity, there's Bluetooth tethering, overall: Couldn't be more happy with that purchase.
[Nexus 7 General] Revin:
I am sooooo jealous guys, that you already have it. I have to wait one more month until it will be aviable in my country, but then it will be instant buy for me :)
[Nexus 7 General] morell2:

[Nexus 7 General] NicholasQ:
Paranoid Android. Nuff said.

I absolutely love my nexus 7. I can't put it down. I'm addicted. It's my perfect little companion. I might not even get a phone.
[Nexus 7 General] Bigzinewicz:
Best Android tablet period.

I have had my Nexus 7 for a almost a month and it is by far the best device I have ever used. I didn't have any of the screen problems up until recently when the touch screen started not responding under heavy loads. Google told me it is a known hardware problem and to RMA it immediately. I will have my replacement in a few days but even if it takes a few defective units to get one that works perfect it is still worth the hassle in my opinion. This thing is THAT good and I wouldn't say that about any of the other devices I have had over the years. If your still considering purchasing one I recommend you get it. Money was no object in making my decision and I own and have used most of the more expensive tablets on the market today. I think the Nexus 7 blows all of them out of the water. Buy it, you won't regret it.
[Nexus 7 General] Bambam0751:
I personally love my Nexus 7, I use it for everything from watching movies to playing games and editing and loads more stuff. I can only think of two things that irritate me, 1 no HDMI slot (although easily solved with mhl adaptor) and 2 the lack of external memory storage but aside from that its a awesome bit of tech.
[Nexus 7 General] swisstourist:
I still love it after 5days of heavy use.

Buy it, don't even think :D
[Nexus 7 General] jnewman1991:
I've had mine for 10 days now and can't put it down. My only complaint is that there is no SD slot, but that's not a big issue now that I have an OTG cable.
[Nexus 7 General] thebighunt:
I'm still happy after 25 days of use and tons of hours...

But the speaker is really crappy

But when I pushon it, the sound is better. Any info about it ?

[Nexus 7 General] pzmosquito:
absolutely no complaint for a $200 tablet. My friend got one with screen lifting problem, but he didn't even notice it (I saw it).
[Nexus 7 General] Drakkuul:
Sold my 32g 3g xoom to buy my N7 4 weeks ago and couldn't be happier, I love the 7" size and weight and the extra cpu power is fantastic for gaming. Occasionally I miss the 3g connection but of course the price reflected the trade off and any other complaints I had disappeared after week two when I installed a custom rom and kernel (now running baked rom and trinity kernel).
[Nexus 7 General] jazzespresso:
yes I am still crazy about my Google Nexus 7!, in fact my wife wants to ditch her iPad 2 and get Nexus 7 after she played with mine for couple days
[Nexus 7 General] dirtyhamster73:
That must of been a proud moment :) I love reading about or hearing about iPad/iPhone users convert to android.

I'm happy with mine but some times the touch screen isn't responsive enough.
[Nexus 7 General] mssam:
Hell yes! Especially, since I switched it to tablet mode...

I ditched my ipad2 for the n7 as well and quite a few people are jealous when they see me w/ the n7. The only reason I even got the ipad2 was because I didn't like any of the other android tablets at the time, but that's all in the past now...ahhh.What's funny is a lot of people don't know about the n7 despite the fact that they're sold out every where...lol...
[Nexus 7 General] nismofreak:
99% happy, just wish there was or were larger internal storage options. stickmount works fine, but would have gladly paid more for a 64 or even 128 gigger. you can never have enough storage, but can definitely NOT have enough. besides that, this thing is a beast! actually about to purchase another :D
[Nexus 7 General] ausch30:
Funny you say that because I was thinking the same. My brother has an iPhone and iPad, and my older nephew has a Nook and iPod Touch, the younger one only has a Touch. I was thinking of trying to stem the tide of Apple love and buy the sister-in-law and both nephews Nexus 7's for Christmas (assuming Google doesn't release a better version this fall). I love this thing. It's unbelievable to me that a company that makes billions per year selling ads, never advertizes themselves. This is really a great device and I have to say that every single person I've shown it to (save for one) said what's that? is it like an iPad? Sorry for the rant but Google needs to step up their game to compete with Amazon and Apple when it comes to putting their products in the public consciousness. This thing is great, it's my first tablet and I love it. I have the 16gb version and I have no regrets.
[Nexus 7 General] stezo2k:
Loved it that much I bought a second :)
[Nexus 7 General] toker_X1:
Google ain't really bother about selling hardware.

Nexus 7 was to show OEMs how to make a Android tablet properly.

Other than Samsung tablets all other makers of Android tablets are poor in my opinion.

Before peeps say what about Nook, Zoom? They are all pants hence why I haven't purchase one.

After a month of owning a Nexus 7, it's definitely my favourite right now. I have ordered a second Nexus 7 for home to used a XBMC remote, controlling household items like my lights switches, fridge etc..

Its only missing Mobile data and SD card slot. - otherwise perfect.

Amazon Kindle HD was announced yesterday, it maybe able to take on Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 General] arunksingh:
Love it. I had some apprehension after reading about screen problems. Guess I'm lucky that mine is free from those defects.
[Nexus 7 General] semperfizh:
I dont know what to think about it. To be honest I bought it to support Google on its path towards a good product.

Considering its prise it is really hard to criticize it but it is far from perfect. Here is why

- touch screen not responsive (from time to time)

- display not attached properly

- colors of the display look washed out (compared to ...)

- screen brightness could be better

- too heavy for such a form factor

- missing 3G

- connectivity (USB, HDMI, VGA, mass storage, etc)

- too small display size (this is of course a matter of taste)

- design is boring

- buttons on the side feel very cheap and are too loud

- buttons cannot be reached very good

- too thick

Here is how to do it better (lol this is a bit arrogant)

- elegant design

- high display quality

- good OS (this one we have already)

- high portability (weight and 3G)

- bigger screen size

- good materials

- something innovative which makes it newer then the convenient products, e.g cool features

Here the good things about it

- OS

- price

- hardware (meaning CPU and GPU)

Google being Google people expect from it the best product and not some semi-good product which is low priced but far from perfect. This is only my opinion of course :)

Cheers
[Nexus 7 General] toker_X1:
VGA!

Cool features!

You do sound arrogant - but everyone entitled do their opinions.
[Nexus 7 General] Galactic2:
I'm quite happy still with my purchase. The screen size is perfect for what I want to do with my tablet. Sure could be a TINY bit bigger? (7.5-8")

My only cons would be:

lack of external storage

lack of mhl

But i knew this ahead of time before purchasing. It is what it is...

@Semperfizh. Nexus 7 heavy? too thick? You want USB20, HDMI, VGA all in a table? Might as well go get a laptop or get the upcoming surface for several hundred $$$ more. LOL
[Nexus 7 General] Foka002:
I got it since Tuesday and I have to say it's quite impressive. It doesn't feel cheap at all, screen is awesome, very responsive when typing and switching between desktops. Lack of 3g doesn't bother me because I use tether. The only issue I found is that lifted screen on left side which isn't a big deal I can live with it. Cheers
[Nexus 7 General] nhoccontw:
Yes.verry happy. Many new device appear etc lumina or kindfiee. But I still love nexus7. Nexus 7 version 3G come is wonderful:o
[Nexus 7 General] wr8_utd:
Love it apart from the washed out screen issue which is a real pain.
[Nexus 7 General] semperfizh:
Lol got me there :)
[Nexus 7 General] CharliesTheMan:
I'm still VERY happy with my Nexus 7 tablet. I bought from Staples within a couple of days of launch and I push mine hard overclocking to 2.1 ghz, carry it around everywhere with me, it at leasts makes to trips a day back and fourth to work and I also use it when I'm outside in the fabrication yard of my business while its dusty and has to be set on workbenches and stuff. Not a scratch yet, and I run it naked with no screen protector.

I wasn't expecting to be thrilled with build quality on a $200 Android device as the iPad's build quality and feel was something I always thought was impressive. But this thing has just as good of a build quality just different materials it's built with.

I spend at least a few hours a day on my nexus 7 between my own testing and flashing and supporting other people.
[Nexus 7 General] semperfizh:
Maybe just cause I want Google to succeed. As I said I bought the thing mainly to support Google :)
[Nexus 7 General] greatgoogly:
Still no working WPA Enterprise Wireless

Not happy that Google seems to be non-responsive to fixing the problems with the Nexus 7 (and in fact all Jelly Bean devices) being unable to connect to many WPA Enterprise Wireless networks. They've had a bug report on this for over 2 months and their front line customer service knows nothing about it, and have no information at all on future updates. It's this kind of very poor support that would make me quite hesitant to recommend the Nexus 7 to someone.
[Nexus 7 General] capoooro:
I definitely love it. The right dimension to read and play

Still pretty happy with mine, but I keep wiping the ROM and switching to something else everyday almost... gives me something to do anyway :p
[Nexus 7 General] Lim Wee Huat:
Excellent! Especially after I've found a custom Rom that suits me.
[Nexus 7 General] lwfb:
Very happy!

I've had a GSM Galaxy Nexus almost since it came out and had Jellybean on it the day it was announced at I/O.

So I was already spoiled by owning a Nexus... my Tab 10.1 got a mostly working 4.1 build not too long after it was announced, but of course things were broken and the experience wasn't nearly as smooth as on my Galaxy Nexus.

That really left me with one option... the Nexus 7.

I thought I would miss the larger screen, but I find this size more comfortable. The form factor is nice, its got some grip to it and feels more substantial than my Tab 10.1.

I got lucky and bought a 16GB one without any flaws from GameStop, so I'm even more satisfied. Its a C8O if anyone is curious.

Overall, the Tegra3, battery life, form factor and development have made this a winner to me.

Oh... and IT'S A NEXUS!

:)
[Nexus 7 General] lafaya:
Very happy 7 days in. It is the perfect size.

I am regret i bought 8gb version:banghead:
[Nexus 7 General] matthewdavis:
Initially bought the 8gig version from staples. Quickly realized I need just a bit more space. Returned it no questions asked and got the 16gig from office max. Loving it greatly.
[Nexus 7 General] Pedal_Bike_Pete:
Don't understand how people say things like "I'll wait for iPhone 5, see what the specs are" dito for iPads, if apple were to launch an iPad with a 10ghz quad core cpu and quad core gpu, 10gb of ram, would it really matter? You can't do anything more with it, almost everything is built to take into account the lowest common device, and apple don't let you do anything other than what they want you to do with it.

Holding an iPhone 3gs side by side to an iPad 3, the user experience is exactly the same, they perform pretty similarly, and you're limited by all the same stuff. :-\

Get a frackin' nexus 7! Just because!
[Nexus 7 General] Cor-master:
Still very happy with mine. It's my second tablet and more of what I envisioned with the first. In February I had tax return cash and was wanting a good tablet, wanted to stay $200 but was willing to go more. I wanted something with a decent gpu, and a gig of ram and honeycomb or higher. I wanted something with pc like Web browsing and minimal lag. I prefered a dual core but it wasn't a necessity. The flyer appeared to meet my needs and it was refurbished for $200 off buy.com.

Fresh with no apps it seemed to meet my needs at first, but as time went by and more apps were loaded it was becoming quickly and painfully apparent that it was a disappointment. Honeycomb quite frankly sucked, limited compatibility, lag, and with the 1024x600 res the action bar took up 10% of the screen and was always on regardless. Web browsing was still more like a phone than a pc.

The flyer didn't sell well so development was limited and there is one cm7 and one aokp ics build for it from the same developer (Chaos he's awesome btw) but he was doing it all by himself with limited resources and htc cut it off at honeycomb. I wanted to like it and keep faith in it but as soon as the nexus was announced I was all about it. After a month of lurking over this forum I finally decided screw it I'm not happy, I can hope Chaoses rom gets perfected or I can know I have aosp jelly bean now! So I pulled the trigger, pulled out the credit card and got on the play store and charged a new nexus 7, and threw my flyer, psp, and zune on ebay to make up the charge. I came out $40 short but just paid that off with my monthly payment. Best decision I made honestly. First android device I've ever had 100% satisfaction with and no desire to root!

There literally is no other tablet I'd rather have. The nexus rocks! And after the new nexus phones come out I'm probably going to ebay my HTC Vivid too and purchase one. And now my wife wants a nexus 7 too so I'm going to look into that too
[Nexus 7 General] espionage724:

I love mine. I have it primarily to play with, since i have a windows tablet for work. I mostly play emulators( gotta catch them all)

and it preforms those tasks well.
[Nexus 7 General] ozzy1212:
I'm 100% sold on this tablet and reading your responses on this thread just confirmed my decision :)

I just have one small qualm, how do you manage the video out?

Is there any way to mirror or at least play videos to an hdmi monitor without the need for a wifi network?

I'm happy with my Nexus 7 purchase. I use it a whole lot more than my iPad!

I loved the N7. Smooth like butter, not pricey like iPad.

It is great when using it at supine position as it weights only 340g (a little more than a can of Coke).

If you are interested to get one in Singapore, please visit the link above.
[Nexus 7 General] jussumguy88:
I honestly don't think that I could be happier. I'm gonna say this is probably one of the best purchases I've made all year. I've had the nexus I believe 2 months or so. I use this thing daily...for hours...literally. lol. Only time I'm not using it is when I'm at work. Lol.
[Nexus 7 General] taffypride:
This is my first Android Tablet (though not my first Android Device) and I looked long and hard to make sure I got the most bang for my buck.

Size wise, it is perfect for me working in a Cinema, as I use it upstairs in the Projection Room to do my film programming via VNC, plus it fits neatly into my pocket.

Storage isn't a massive issue (although I did buy the 16Gb version), however i have contemplated getting a Kingston 32Gb or 64Gb Wi-Drive rather than use conventional USB OTG...

Other people who work in the same Cinema would rather use an iPad because if anything goes wrong, then they can go back to the nearest Apple Store...pah...foools.... :)

I do actually use it for other uses than just for work though... :)
[Nexus 7 General] dimitri0610:
Certainly the best tablet I have found for the money so far. Mine has been working flawlessly and has no had defects. I love this tablet, a great fit in the hand, a good overall feel, and runs smoothly like you would want it to. Came from an iPad 3rd gen, sold my iPad, bought this and I am very happy with my purchase.
[Nexus 7 General] JNeail:
At first:

- No screen lift issues

- no dead spots on the screen

- super smooth and fast interface

- slick apps

- WiFi good speed/range

- great screen / no washed out blacks

- very very happy 1st time Android user

But now:

- unbearable lag and getting worse by the day

- apps not responding all the time and the crashing

- slow to charge even with OEM charger and cable

- often won't fully charge without disconnecting then reconnecting the cable.

- keyboard awkward, adding a 'v' instead of a space 80% of the time (left handed typist)

- slow WiFi speeds on Nexus vs other WiFi connected devices

- becoming disappointed that I can't seem to 'just use it' with out having to 'fix' something 1st

- refuses to encrypt

- won't connect to exchange server / requires Touchdown (which is probably better anyway?)

- battery life not as described (but to be fair I'm always on it!)

- lack of decent cases available with sleep magnet.

- not able to use / interchange my collection of various USB chargers e.g. for blackberry/windows phone/kindle/Garmin all with micro USB chargers but not 2mil-amp so too slow to charge!

Summary;

- still love it for its size

- great screen

- portability over my corporate laptop in meetings (Thanks to OneNote)

- Exchange email (via Touchdown)

- instant on web browsing (fash loaded thanks to XDA forum!)

- MSFT OneNote (I know a lot of you hate it but its one thing MSFT have got right!)

- not rooted and happy with that for now
[Nexus 7 General] Cor-master:
I noticed yesterday after I installed nova 3 there was some slight lag, and I only had 4 gigs free. I removed nova, which was taking up 2.9 gigs of space for some reason and the lag went away. So sadly, partitioning and file system are to blame for any lag issues which imo is bs because if you have 12.5 gigs formatted free from the factory you outta be able to use it all without it slowing your system down. My flyer wasn't exactly fast but I filled the storage partition to 20mb free and it didn't bog down the tablet.

The difference is the flyers internal storage was a separate partition from the system. The nexus has one gigantic master partition for everything. Still shouldn't matter, pcs don't have this problem. What file system does Google use? Fat32? I like the idea of one master partition but not in its going to lag the tablet down.

Hopefully in 4.1.2 or 4.2 key lime pie it gets addressed

+ cheap price, although my total was about ~$301 (16gb) thanks to shipping and tax charges.

+ buttery interface.

+ Nexus device.

+ good ebook reader.

+ great battery life.

- no MircoSD slot :( Google can take its cloud service and stick it up its ass.

-- Disappointed in Tegra3 performance (Abysmal memory bandwidth + poor gpu performance). sadly I fell for the marketing machine (POWAFUL QUAD COAR!!!).

-- Screen separation = FU Asus.

Screen is nice, but I'm not that impressed with it.

Maybe because I got used to my SGS2 with the SAmoled+ panel, which is imo miles ahead of the washed out IPS screens with high response times.
