[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
Damn, that was laggy as a mofo. One of the biggest complaints about any device on xda is about lag. I can see its thread filling up with lag threads. It being so heavily skinned is what causing the major lag. The superior specs is being wasted by resource hog Amazon skin. Now if you can wipe it clean and throw pure JB on it, it migght turn out decent.

People keep saying the avg. Consumer won't care about developement and other features nexus 7 has over this. Well in case you forgot, this is XDA. These things matter to the majority of its users.

I can't believe I'm catching more interest in this as i read on. Ill admit e.mote, its a good read. With my gf always saying I give her hand me down technology/things, lmfao, this a good reason to get her one. So I can see how it is also :) I need to know if this is available now or when.GF bday in a week or 2. I'm sure she would love it.

This is what happens when you fall asleep early and wake up middle of the night. Now im busy reading this thread when i should be going bsck to sleep. Lol as i have to go to work in a few hours.

Overall, I'm loving how the tech/tablet scene is picking up steam and getting better n better. This will make other Android manufacturers have to step the game up once again. I can see Apple now going crazy. With new Amazon tablet and Nexus 7, Ipad mini might not have a chance. Bit we all know the masses will still get Ipad mini because its Apple. Although amazon is heavily skinned Android, its still lumped into Android category. The more it sells, the better the msrketshare Android as a whole will gain from apple. As far as tablets go.

Still can't get past how laggy the preview video was though..SMH I would hope the 8.9HD version with more powerful processor/gpu handles the heavy skin android better.

The real vs. Threads will begin once it gains developement scene. Id love to see how modded Amazon tab performs against modded N7. Dont forget weve already achieved 2Ghz on N7 and destroyed all benchmarks. Will new Amazon tablet be able to do the same? Dont care if avg. Consumer doesnt care. Xda will care though.

That would make me alot of N7 owners mad if they go on a release a 32gb nexus 7. I would've rather had that Instead of 16gb. I can see them doing it though. You know what, I can see the possibility of an HD 1080p 32gb nexus 7 version. Who's to say Google didnt already have one in the works?

Lmao for one, I don't care what "Amazon said". Tech reviews, benchmarks, and real world consumer use will determine which processor outperforms who. All new devices always say thier stuff is better/more powerful. I seriously doubt we will see new Amazon kindle fire topping becnhmark lists like Nexus 7 has and will reach speeds of 2ghz like nexus 7 has.

As for the apple crushing thing, apple dial core CPU blows big time. Only thing that's crushing is its gpu. Which is needed to push its super high Res. Screen anyways. Apple new Ipad is not a more pwoerful device overall. Only its gpu is. Which is expected considering the size die of uses for it..lol

Thanks for the article. This quote by Anandtech sums things up basically as to why the Nexus 7 is the superior device:

"The real world difference between two given Android devices has more to do with the software than the actual hardware inside. If you don’t believe me, go find an International SGS III variant, with Samsung’s cutting edge and stonking Exnos 4 Quad inside, and compare it alongside a Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean. The latest edition of Android pushes the relatively modestly powered Nexus well past the quad-core SGS III where it matters most, smooth UI performance."

NEXUS 7 ACE IN THE HOLE ;) Pure untainted Android Jellybean. Software, Android wise, doesn't get any better. Performance wise/smooth fluid UI.
