[Nexus 7 (2013) General] spielnicht:
My first from Best Buy was perfect in every way with the exception that I would find it shutoff all by itself every once in a while. After I exchanged it for a second, which was also perfect out of the box, I think the shutoff issue was related to the rooting process cause that's when it started. I've held off from rooting the 2nd one.

So 2 for 2 for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] owerner:
worked perfect.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Shahal:
First one constantly rebooted before and after updates. Exchanged and second one has been flawless.

Coming from the galaxy tab 2 to the nexus 7.2 was a blessing, man. Its been 4.3 that's been bothering me, ironicly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] dimebagdan65:
I had issues with my first but it turned out to be a PEBCAK problem... Seems they changed the layout juuuuust a bit between TWRP for the Grouper and TWRP for the Flo and my dumb@$$ accidentally wiped cache and data instead of cache and dalvik during rooting (which I did before walking out of the store lol). Aside from that little hiccup, this thing is a dream of a device, absolutely flawless!

Stock JSS15Q rooted with TWRP, SuperSU and Franco kernel

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] nextelbuddy:
I bought one 3 days before official launch at best buy (wifi only) and it was perfect out of the box. i even downloaded multitouch apps and screen bleed test apps held the tablet in the darkest of dark rooms and had 0 issues. I only took it back to best buy on the 15th day because I knew i wanted the LTE model instead.

got the LTE model when it came out and i have not tested nay multitouch apps or light bleed apps.. why? because my LTE tablet is working and acting perfectly and there no need for me to go find something wrong. I dont notice any lag, touch response issues or light bleed at full brightness in my standardly lit rooms.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] MikeMurphy:
My first 32GB WiFi had occasional touch issues.

My second 32GB WiFi is perfect but has a piece of dust under the screen. Small, but very annoying.

Perfect

I purchased mine (16gb) from Bestbuy and it has been absolutely amazing! +1
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Aria807:
Purchased mine from MacMall. No issues that I can honestly report here (random touch) except for the GPS bug. However newer base of the Roms fixed it for me I think. I've not had any locking issues as of late.

Any of the random reboots I've had are due to the custom rom's I've been on with overclocking. I can't speak for the stability of the base OS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] oosacker:
Mine was fine out of box.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] freeza:
My 3rd (32GB and final) one has a little light bleed on the side. But for $200, I will accept this annoying crap.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Jester Minute:
Hi there chaps.

I haven't been lucky enough to get a 'perfect' nexus so far but I stumbled across the "Nexus 7 II touch tester" (as searched in app store) app that one of the xda members (memory failed me sorry!) uploaded on a different thread.

Now I certainly don't want to ruin your enjoyment of the machine, but it would be really useful to get some results from those of you with 'perfect' tablets - to ensure that zero ghost touches is something that's actually achievable with this device (it might not be).

For reference my Tab 7.7 and Htc One report Zero ghost touches so the software thinks it's possible - It'd just be really useful to see if the hardware thinks its possible as well.

(for reference don't forget to have developers tools -> show touch enabled when you run it otherwise you'll see nothing anyway).

If everybody is getting ghost touches, even on perfect devices, then we know zero touches isn't a possibility.

If on the other hand we get a reasonable number of zero touch results, then we have metric by which we can eliminate 'problem' devices.

Much thanks for anyone who has the time to participate (to avoid hijacking this thread can I recommend you post in the "Fake Touch Tester" thread in General?).

Mine's going back for a refund, I'll try picking one up from a different shop (and hopefully a different batch as a result).

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] alpine101:
Had my LTE a week now, no issues whatsoever. Really quick, excellent screen and ergonomics and now rooted, which is all that is needed to make it perfect.

Nexus 7 32 GB Wi-Fi Works Great!

I installed Dark Jelly ROM and ElementalX Kernel at 1944 GHZ, it runs great. The back doesn't even get hot at all even when playing Wild Blood. No bleeding or bad pixels either. I do notice when I'm doing chest puzzles in the game sometimes the blocks will not slide unless I move them in a different direction then what I'm trying to move them but I believe it's the game and not the Nexus. All other touches outside of the game work fine. Even the battery life is great! I haven't tested the GPS as I don't ever have it on though maybe I should just to make sure it's not buggy. I think there is a fix though even if it is I read in these forums somewhere.:cool:

Edit: Tested GPS with GPS Status And Tools from the Play Store, couldn't get a lock. But I found this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2421373&highlight=gps and this fixed it for me. So my Nexus 7 is picture perfect! :o
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] spacemanvt:
i havent read through the entire thread but has anyone noticed the power button is kind mushy compared to the nexus 7 2012?

As in it is harder to press and more finicky... not sure if its worth returning though.

otherwise its fine and usually i will be turning it on with the cover magnet.....
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ac3kill:

Perfect out of the box

My nexus 7 was perfect.

got crashy only when I installed an old Xposed framework. no problems since I installed the updated v2.2

edit: just to add mine is a 16gb since it seems like those have more complaints.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] GreatTide:
Out of the box perfect. Got it from best buy Aug 3rd.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ricowan:
I got mine from Walmart, has been flawless except for a couple random reboots (which is software related, nothing to do with the hardware). I've also unlocked and rooted, and didn't have any issues with that either.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Evo_Pimpin:
Mine worked perfect until I started unlocking,rooting and installing a custom recovery. Once I did that I started having touch screen issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] greogory:
Ditto. My FLO worked perfectly out of the box for a solid 20 minutes. Woo-hoo! Then I bricked it with a bad ROM flash. Boooooo!

Flashed back to stock and it worked perfectly again for several weeks. I had no touch screen, audio stutter or video problems on the stock ROM while using stock apps, tools & utilities.

The Nexus 7 FLO (wifi only model) is definitely well worth the price. I recommend it unreservedly to anybody as a vanilla stock device, or on a stable AOSP ROM.

I'm now using SlimBean 4.3 stable build 1. No problems with SlimBean, either, so far.

Fwiw, I've had a problem with SwiftKey Tablet freezing up & buffering dozens of key strokes at a time while frozen then suddenly spewing them all out on both stock and SlimBean. I have not had any problems with the stock Android keyboard on either ROM, so it's most likely a bug in SwiftKey.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] heccubusxda:
My 32gb Flo (rooted stock) purchased from Play Store has been fantastic out of the box. No touch or GPS issues and I play Ingress which uses the GPS extensively so any problems would be quickly apparent.

Had the occasional random reboot and did have some weird thing where the device became unresponsive a few weeks after I bought it. A factory reset set things right and it's been perfect since.

Definitely a worthwhile upgrade from the grouper!!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kisrita:
Raising my hand for the second time, this time to report that my LTE N7 is also flawless.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] cyaclone:
Worked perfectly since purchase. Rooted the day after purchase. Have used CleanROM and PA without issues along with TWRP and CWM for recovery. Connected a flash drive for additional storage when necessary and it works also. Great unit and a perfect size for the hand and have used it more than my Galaxy S4.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] amf:
Got an N7 LTE 2 days ago and working flawless. The battery is great too both with WiFi and LTE connectivity.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] k28king1:
I am always the person that's gets the device with issues...luckily for me this time it is perfect out of the box and works as advertised.... None of the issues other users were complaining about were present on mine... I even tried to replicate said issues to see if they were there and they were not....I am always the early adopter, this time I waited though...I guess it helps to wait after the initial batch to purchase any new device.

No lingering issue on first until the screen got a hairline fracture from twisting in a pocket.

I will fix the first one when I can find a good source for parts or possibly just have a local repair specialist give a quote to fix it.

I bought an lte version on the second attempt. No issues with this one either.

I wish my N7 was perfect .. its really to close to perfect , multitouch works ok , gps ok , no light bleed at all ..

The ONLY problem is one dead pixel where the navigation bar is in portrait mode, so you can see it only when in landscape mode , still decided to try to RMA it , they said that they check the device , and MAYBE replace it with another .. now lets hope for the best.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] cowisland:
Mine works fine except I got random reboots after each of the last two OTAs. A factory reset fixed it each time. I am no longer having the reboots, but still a bit pissed to have to do the resets.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] burhanistan:
Mine had no issues, except for the stupid one where Tethering/Hotspot settings are hidden when you insert an AT&T SIM. Had to root the device within the hour of unboxing it to make it do what it's supposed to.

I'd love to see a Nexus 7 2013 sitting on a plastic stand, connected to regular 2.4Ghz WiFi, paired to a Bluetooth 2.0 keyboard which types without repeated keypresses and with a perfectly responsive touchscreen. I don't think such a device exists.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] dud3me:
You all still have the low volume hissing right? I got 32gb 08 model and that's the only issue I have.

Also, can someone check if you get a sort of rattling sound when playing the stock alarm sound cesium on higher volumes. Feels like the speakers are rattling when playing it, but don't notice that on other sounds.

mine is working fine. no bad pixels, GPS is fine even in the middle of home, no problems with multitouch during normal use but there is one but... grounding issue.

if I let tablet lay on the wooden table and I try to operate it by one hand (eg start the movie) the screen for most of the time is not working correctly (not registered the touch) till i will not rich the tablet with the other hand (no head phones or charger attached).

my question is if those of you who got perfect tablet have not grounding issue as well?

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ganstar:
August build. No real issues except things I think are minor. The pin stripe issue is there on dark screens, say the settings screen, these jump around too. Also on white screens the hue/tone can change to something like off white/yellow just randomly, only happened two or three times. I have also had a couple of times where the brightness has automatically adjusted by itself, definitely not the hue/tone issue.

but overall I have been very happy, its better made and finished than my new note 3 and is zippier out of the box. I'll keep an eye on the above but I think it will be a keeper.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Raqun:
September, Uk version 32GB, no major issues except on the initial firmware it would randomly reboot at leas once every day. Nothing since later updates and every custom rom I have tried. No touchscreen or coloring issues and no heat ups.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] 007xico:
I think someone should do a poll to see who has 0 problems, because I looked at the last pages and is always someone with at least one problem and that's worrying.

Mine has some problems too, sticky keys, doesn't response to touch, some times volume won't go up or down and had to restart it a few times to get it working.

I will wait for kit kat and if the problems don't get fixed , I will send it back to repair. But most likely, I will sell it and get something that works.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Jrob2k:
I actually just got mine a few days ago so i can still exchange.

The 'norm' is no problems.

It's about, maybe, 5% (WAG, as there are obviously no published stats) of devices effected by the touchscreen or rebooting issues.
