[Nexus 7 General] player911:
Reading up on some daily news, I came across an article reviewing the new N7 hardware and the 4.2 update.

The reviewer soon found out that the 32gb unit was much snappier in booting and loading apps. So he put it to the test against an 8gb unit and the results are clear.

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/11/googles-nexus-7-gets-a-fresh-coat-of-paint-for-the-holidays/

Much faster read and access times on the new 32gb units.

TEST.............................................................8GB NEXUS 7..........32GB NEXUS 7

Boot time.........................................................39.7 seconds.............28.5 seconds

Launching GLBenchmark Egypt HD test..............11.2 seconds...............8.8 seconds

[Nexus 7 General] RusherDude:
We, the first 8GB/16GB buyers, got stolen on this one.

I am not paying for a Nexus 10 after this.
[Nexus 7 General] bpye:
So Asus aren't allowed to improve parts in later batches? That's ridiculous, it's likely that the better memory got cheaper and so was used, keeping the BOM the same with better performance. Just because they aren't Apple and don't make even a minor change a huge deal with a new version doesn't mean it's bad.
[Nexus 7 General] Thmstec:
Calm down. The 16gb was faster than the 8gb from the beginning. See: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6130/the-16gb-nexus-7-storage-performance for a rundown of the difference between 8gb vs 16gb.

Looking at the numbers, its tough to say whether there is even a difference between the 16gb vs the 32gb. Someone would need to test them the same way side by side to be sure.
[Nexus 7 General] pboesboes:
You didn't get "stolen", you got exactly what you paid for.

Higher capacity SSDs have always been faster. It's no surprise this is also true in tablets. The 16 GB version is also faster than the 8 GB.
[Nexus 7 General] ddlooping:
Interesting, thanks. :)
[Nexus 7 General] Turbotab:
The 16 GB version of the Nexus 7 has faster storage than the 8 GB, the Ars Technica figures are quite a bit lower than my 8GB, anyway I've never noticed a performance issue on my device.

Between the 32 GB & 16 GB I doubt there is much difference, in a previous thread I asked an early buyer of the 32 GB model to Androbench it against their 16 GB, the result was similar.

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

Storage in current phones / tablets is not SSD but eMMC, both use NAND memory but there are major differences.
[Nexus 7 General] CJHolderUK:
This is common practise with solid state storage, a 128gb SSD will be slower than a 256gb even though they're made my the same manufacturer. A 64gb version will be faster than the 32gb version. Nothing to get pissed about, just they way things worked.
[Nexus 7 General] player911:
Probably but seems the gains are pretty large. Regardless of the reason, I still found it fascinating that there are such big differences between the units sizes. Very good knowledge if you are on the fence about saving a few bucks on memory. No longer is the battle just whether you can survive with a set space but also picking a slower one.

[Nexus 7 General] ebguilbert:
Reading the arstechnica article, is not clear if the WIFI 32GB version is faster as well. They only tested the 3G 32GB version. Do you think the WIFI version would have the same boost on nand?
[Nexus 7 General] Dorkington:
There's also something humorous about people complaining about being "had" on a device with little to no profit margin.
[Nexus 7 General] styckx:
Even funnier is I bet if you randomly picked 10 8GB owners and gave them a 32GB version 0 of them would notice any difference in speed.

The difference in speed is as close to being placebo as you can get without actually being placebo.
[Nexus 7 General] Newfarm:
Well. As an 8GB owner, I stumbled upon this thread while trying to figure out why my Nexus 7 felt so sluggish, so my gut feeling says that this may not be so placebo after all.

I bought the 8GB version on impulse due to a ridiculously good offer, so neither the slow and little RAM, or the fact that the left side of the screen almost seem to come unglued trouble me. But coming from the original Samsung Tab + the SGII phone, I must admit I'm a bit disappointed in the (lack of) speed and snappiness of the Nexus... Had expected more after two years. Ok, the resolutions is higher and the screen is nice, but that's it.

[Nexus 7 General] rebel1699:
I can say honestly that it is no placebo. I have a 16gb and also bought a 32gb a week ago. Within 5 minutes, the difference was very apparent. To get a better feel, I took the 16 back to stock via fastboot and faced them off on equal ground. I did not benchmark, mainly because two 16's can differ in a benchmark. Would not have proved a thing. So, I went by feel. Both on the same wifi network, the 32 crushed the 16 in dl time, install time, and just overall feel. Scrolling, reaction and graphics were a big difference. I installed NFS mw on both, and the 32 was much much smoother. Those are just my personal findings, for what its worth.

[Nexus 7 General] rebel1699:
No, but I know how to tell which is downloading faster and installing quicker, which is lagging more and whatnot. Sometimes, you dont need a benchmark to do something as simple as monitor time elapsed. Sometimes in the age of technology, a stopwatch and simultaneous side by side comparison is still very useful. Overthinking can occasionally be a problem.

And if your gonna ask a question like" Did you run a test" and then answer you own question with incorrect and sarcastic assumption, just save your time and dont ask. As a result, I wont answer it, and let you look like the fool all alone.

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

Thats very true, but I compared both stock. If the 16 has a custom kernel, then the 32 needs to have the same in order for a comparison to be anywhere near accurate. You could compare a stock gm engine to a blown 383 too, but it would be pointless. Dont need a dragstrip to figure that one out.
[Nexus 7 General] ExploreMN:
Not to be a Debbie Downer here, but we've seen variations larger than this in N7's running the same specs, ROMs, etc. Hence the many differences in the "lag thread" and many other threads. A test between 2 units isn't even remotely conclusive.
[Nexus 7 General] rebel1699:
That cant be argued for sure. This is why I am careful not to base opinion on benchmarks. Personal experience with ones own device(s) is always the best. If a user is happy with tbeir device, then a benchmark score is useless, not to mention misleading.

[Nexus 7 General] Dark Jedi:
What does download speeds prove? If they are sharing the same network one will be dominant over the other. Case in point is my laptop blows away my wife's laptop in specs. Now for some reason when on the network her laptop will hog most of the data when I am on at the same time. Furthermore what does memory have to do with download speeds anyways lol.

Point is it may move more memory but will you notice it? Most likely not. Its called the butt dyno effect. I have seen people put throttle body spacers on their vehicles and say oh I feel it has more power and torque. Well someone put their truck on a dyno and made two runs. One with the spacer and one without. Amazingly the one with the spacer lost HP and torque. So just because you think you can see and feel a difference is most likely your mind playing trickson you.
[Nexus 7 General] rebel1699:
Its hard to trick a timer. Put the same large sized app on two devices, open the file browsers, and install at the same time. The odds of being "confused" at which one continuously finishes first is pretty slim. Same with opening app, device startup times..... What confuses me, is how people can be confused at results someone has taken time to post from their own experience (and from device to device, experience will vary). The discussion here is not necessarilly what you notice, but if the larger memory, in actuality, is faster. Whether in milliseconds or whole seconds. What I would like to see is replies and inpit from those who have actually done it, and not just read about it. You know, actual input and debate based on actual experience.

Not trying to be snooty at all. I just hate seeing a serious conversation on facts turn into a thread where testing and hands on turns into a big collectrion of guesses and non tested ideas portrayed as fact. If someone wants to argue about someone elses results, at least have your own results from your own test ready to post as well.

[Nexus 7 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I own the 32gb version, only ever used the 32gb but I can tell you sure as anything my 32gb beats an xda friend of mine in benching using androbench, when I say beats I mean by pretty much 20 when you add sequential read and write together. Its not a case of saying mine is faster or what ever as we are actually doing a serious test regarding I/O schedulers. Of course iv never tried to use my friends device as he lives several thousand miles from me and I don't actually know anyone within 'the real world' who could do a round of benchmarking with. I can't even post proof im afraid without compromising the study we are conducting. Based on the results we have though or at least between our two devices and the significance of the difference I don't think you could say a score difference of 20 could be put down to test noise (which will always occur). The 32 GB version I'm certain smashes the lower spec models in terms of memory performance
[Nexus 7 General] DarK_MischieF:
To my understanding this is similar to SSDs in the desktop space. Higher capacity SSDs always outperform their smaller cousins (assuming same architecture), especially in write operations.

However the Nexus 7 seems to have different controllers. Check these out per anandtech.

[Nexus 7 General] farmerbb:
I upgraded from a 16GB to a 32GB Nexus 7 a few months ago primarily for the faster I/O perfomance of the 32GB chip. Having thoroughly used both the 16GB and 32GB versions with a good amount of content loaded on each device, I can definitely say that performance is much better on the 32GB. I was getting repeated, horrendous lag on the 16GB whenever any I/O operations were performed and no amount of "lag-fixing" would completely solve it. My 32GB only lags very occasionally during I/O operations and the tablet is still very much usable, whereas the 16GB would not be usable at all during the same situations.
