End of nexus 7? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Noticing that Google Play is selling out their nexus 7's and Asus is offering the bonus promotion for the nexus 7 along with other stores like Walmart dropping the price dramatically does it mean its on its way out? I know there are posts about the nexus 8"flounder" and such do you think its the end for the tablet? Should I pick one up now or wait for the n8? Walmart dropped the price in store to $215 for the 32gb version.

I love my 2013 N7, but I agree that waiting is best now.

Agree on waiting. Even if the new version isn't for you, the 2013 version is fabulous and will only drop in price.

Is there any reason why it wouldn't be discontinued?
It's almost time for the summer refresh of android and a medium sized nexus tablet.
Do you want a 8" tab if rumors are accurate?
Is the potential release of android a64 a factor?
Do you want a HTC or ASUS designed device?
The 2013 N7 is nearing a year old, it has 2 major updates left expected in it's lifetime, with the summer one being one of them.
The 2014 N7/8 will definitely be more expensive as long as stock doesnt run out on the 2013 N7
(current price vs price of leftovers after release)

I would definitely wait on the 8! It's just around the corner and it will be worth the updated hardware and hopefully screen size bump.

I am not looking forward to an 8" screen. Those are not as good for HD movie viewing. Also the 7" is compact enough to be very portable. I would jump at a 2014 Nexus but not sure I would if it's 8". Time will tell but I need portable to be able to take it with me on Mass Casualty Incidents and Search and Rescue deployments.

I find 7" a bit too small and 10" a bit too big. 8" should be just right. If HTC is making it, that's just icing on the cake. If it's not too expensive I'll probably get one for my wife.

I think I would be happy with an 8" tablet since I it would be a 'nicer' jump in size from 5" phone. On the other hand it would stretch carrying/holding it one handed.

Right??? I get **** all the time by people who use giant tablets and I gotta say... Compensate much? Lol really though, this thing has more than enough power if taken care of, can take quite the beating as far as my uses go annnd it fits in your pocket in a pinch. My favorite thing to do is put it in a leather case and hide it in a pile of books. Can't do that with 10 inches. Kind of the motion in the ocean solution. If you catch my tide...
This message is brought to you... Satan.

I love the 7 inch tablet, honestly would love a 7 inch phone that has the form factor of a phone not a tablet with very little bezzle. I think the n7 will perform well for a long while. I am in no hurry to upgrade. I am less likely to upgrade a tablet than I am a phone

I bought one. I haven't had a tablet since the Asus transformer t100 lol. Threw Kali on it and just use it for "pentesting" other than that I got some clip on joysticks from Walmart for 50cents so I'll use it to game. Its alright I guess I really really hate typing on it because of the lack of vibrations Haha. Just wish they'd put that in a tablet I love the tablet but its a bit slower than my nexus 5(which is understandable) lack of Rome(exciting) kinda bothers me but overall I'll use it until I buy the 8 lol also got a scratch on the screen a week after I had it and I have no idea how it got there. Oh well. Thanks for the input guys :3

Will you be getting a nexus 7

I didn't see the topic if there is already another thread my bad. Anyway I have my galaxy nexus and a Motorola zoom both aosp devises and will probably only buy aosp devices. So I was faced with a tough question, absolutely the nexus 7 is worth the price but is it worth it for me cause I already have a 10 inch tablet . My first thought was no but then I thought about it and decided that it would be nice to have a tablet I can take on the Bart (subway in SF) and be able to stick in my coat pocket when I got to where I was going before I would take my Xoom and feel stupid cause then I had to hold the thing all day until I went home. Besides that I just wanted a smaller tablet I have my Xoom and will still use it when at home on the couch but will use the nexus 7 when out and about. So what do you think ?? Is it worth it??? Am I waisting my money ??? And will you be getting the nexus 7 ????

Just bought a Galaxy Nexus instead of waiting for the N4 to come back in stock..

So I sold my S3 (which I really regret) in anticipation for the N4. I couldn't get one on launch and theyve been sold out in the UK play store ever since.
I'm kind of glad I didn't get one now. I was always concerned about teething issues and 16gb bothered me.
Today I decided to get a GN off eBay as a stop gap. Besides the camera, it is a wonderful device. I like the build and I love the pure black front. I'm also a sucker for amoled screens. I've used my brothers one fairly extensively and with 4.2 it seems like a really "complete" device.
My plan is to keep the GN for around 6 months. At that point I'm hoping Google are going to do an N7 and release a 32gb model. Only at that point will I pick an N4 up.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting it, and for the first time since my S1, having a device which I can run 100% working AOSP rooms on.

Cool story
I think you'll really like it. I've had mine for about 3 weeks - got it for a steal on eBay right after the Nexus 4 was announced. When I got it, it looked completely unused.
Anyway, even the camera doesn't bother me. It's as good as any other cell phone camera I've ever used though I suppose it's not the best out there (HTC or Nokia most likely have those). Still what I use my phone camera for is stuff that winds up downsized on Facebook anyway. If I want to take nice photos, that's what my Canon EOS T3 is for.
Yea it is not a bad decision. The camera really does not bother me at all because it actually takes great pictures. Overall it is the software mix with the mp that produce great shots so the 5mp only sounds bad but quality is pretty good imo. The development is amazing as well with all the new 4.2.1 Roms coming out
Also depends on how much you got the gnex for thou?

You are part of the problem this site faces. Such an ignorant and useless post for absolutely no reason. If you don't like a thread/post simply move on and don't be a jerk!
To the OP I gave my wife my S3 and took my old GNex back from her. She hated the battery life of the GNex and I hated not having the latest version of Android lol. All in all the GNex is a great phone I just wish I could get the battery to last a bit longer.

I am in the exact same place as the OP. I sold my white S3 to buy N4 but after 10 days w/o a decent phone bought a brand new GNex.
Actually I do not regret of selling the S3. I really love the pure android.
I tried CM in s3 and it was buggy as hell.
I will go for an N4 but gnex is a remarkable phone. Period
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks guys you've certainly reassured me.
I think I've made a good decision for the meantime. I played with stock 4.2 on the gnex and I absolutely loved it. Android has come so far from eclair, which is what I started on.
And I don't care what anyone says about amoled, the pure black with saturated neon blue on the gnex is sexy as hell.
Only thing is gaming, but for anything serious I much prefer to use the N7. I'm sure the gnex will cut it for temple run etc!
I can see myself becoming a serial flasher again lol.

I totally agree. I hear a lot of people *****ing about the displays on this phone, but I have to disagree, especially after a minor color tweak. Punchy colors (but not too punchy), super dark blacks, 320ppi (pentile be damned it still looks great)..I find myself just staring at my home screen sometimes which features a city scape at night recolored with a rainbow like effect, it just really shows all the strengths of this screen.
Certain shades of gray are the weakness, but I rarely encounter them, and the rest of the time it just looks great, so I really don't care.

sell gnex then buy iphone = 1 less fanboi on xda??
I sat a couple of days ago with a N4 in my cart, with a ship date of 1-2 weeks...but something just didn't seem right to me. It was $350 I didn't really have to blow, but I really needed to get something going because my company is kicking everyone off their Verizon corporate plan at the end of the month.
I've been a Galaxy S I (Fascinate) user for the past 2 years, and I wanted to stay with a Galaxy family. I have been researching using a GSM GNex for T-Mobile Prepaid. So, I bailed on the N4, with the hopes that I could find a good deal on a GNex (I knew I could get a "like new" one from Amazon for $300).
Then my Fascinate died. My Galaxy S1 that I've babied and taken such good care of it's whole life....now in a endless bootloop with no USB access whatsoever to flash anything new to it. Oh well, I was going to have to send it back to corporate next week anyway. Still, I haven't been without a mobile for more than a day in a long time.
Somehow luck was on my side. The very next day, a local man posted his "like new in box" GSM Gnex for $200, and I pounced. Met him during his 2nd shift workbreak and bought it immediately. Got it home and shoved my T-Mobile SIM in there, and completed the activation and number port online. Took them about 8 hours (overnight) to port my number from the corporate plan.
I'm thrilled with my decision. I love the look, feel and quality of the GNex..and the step up in speed and smoothness from my Fascinate (that was running CM10 nightlies) is immense! I'll probably end up using this for a year or two and pick up one of the next generation Nexus phones (maybe a Google/Motorola Nexus?), skipping the LG N4.

Really? You think I haven't used a retina iphone? I have, quite a bit. Yeah, it's good, but bleh color and bleh black level, and come on, minuscule in size. Way worth the tradeoff of pentile thanks, especially at these resolutions. I would agree with the old 480x800 pentiles, but 320 ppi is damn small, and the downsides to pentile are hard to see at best. So, in the real world the Nexus screen imo looks much better.
Especially while looking at pictures or watching movies. The GNex is amazing compared to iphone 4's 'it's sharp but meeh'.

OT. Help me pick a tablet.

Hi all. It's not often that I start a thread around here. Feel free to keep this going for other people looking to spend their gift cards.
So I am between 2 tabs: Nexus 7 and Galaxy 2 7.0.
From what I'm reading, it looks like the specs are a little better on the Nexus but it's really hard to be a deal I found on a refurb Galaxy tab on Amazon ($170).
The lack of expandable storage and HDMI concern me a little with the Nexus but all reports seen to indicate that it's just an incredible device. Plus if I get the Galaxy tab i kind of feel like I'm just getting a bigger version of this phone.... though it does have official cm support.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance for your help with my 1st world problem.

If I were to buy a device from your choices I would pick the nexus but I would get the 32 gig one. I just believe you can never have enough memory. But I do love having an memory card and it makes everything so much easier. You can't go wrong with either device. I think it comes down to personal preference.

I jist got 2 galaxy tab 2 10.1 for me and my oldest son for xmas. I have to say its a great tab for the money I like it alot better than my nexus 7 due to size and my moms nexus 10 which is the same size but is missing a few features in lieu of bigger proc and ram. Which on the tablet you dont notice really since theres not a lot of phone related stuff running in the background. They also have sd slots for expansion

It's just my personal experience. I had the Tab 2 7.0 for about 5 months and now I have the nexus 7 since day 1. I have it mainly for the kids whether playing games or watching movies. I rarely use it for some reading and browsing.
I have to say there is no comparison. Nexus 7 is a LOT better. The screen is way better whether the specs, visibility, brightness or the dirt and finger print collection. Also, the speed and responsiveness. It is a lot faster and the touch is more accurate and responsive.
The tab 2 is better in terms of extra hardware. A microSD slot, a back camera and an HDMI port. So, if you can get past these, you have to get the Nexus.
I have 4 tablets now (well, the HP is now broken) and I never used the back camera except for testing purposes. Another thing is I never ran out of space. Of course this is very subjective. You can have a couple of 2GB games and that would clutter the space. Also, I have a Google TV and a Wii and they are my entertainment center (though not something to brag about).
So, for me, I would say: Definitely go with the nexus.
I never used a Motorola product, so I don't know anything about it. I just like the 7 inches size better than the 10 inches. It is lighter, easier to handle and the battery usually lasts better.
Hope this helps...
My gt2 10.1 is lighter than my kindle fire and barely different from my nexus 7. Having gps on it is nice tho makes turn by turn easy as hell to use while driving since I dont have to strain to see it. Plus the IR blaster is great my tablet now controls my tv, pc and satellite set top box. I dont use my nexus 7 much anymore between my note 2 and gt2 its become obsolete.

The Nexus 7 without a doubt. I have the 16GB version and I love it. I have used other tablets (Herotab C8, Asus TF 101) and have handled many others, and without a doubt the Nexus 7 is without a doubt the best I have used. Clean, easy to modify, and most of the development work is pretty stable. It is by far the best one going.

New Nexus for the win :good:
For 70 dollars less for the 16G version, it's a souped up version of last year's Nexus 7. Basically older N7 with better battery life, better screen (not resolution), additional camera, microSD, stereo speakers, but runs slightly slower. I'm very tempted but will wait until CM10 is ported over to it.
I don't intend to ever buy another non-Nexus Android device. Just my opinion, but the developer communities are so much better for Nexus devices, along with fast updates, true Android experience, etc.
I ended up buying a new N7 this morning - I just couldn't help myself.
Though for only $150 the Memo HD 7 still looks like a hell of a bargain for the features it offers.

No it isn't. It is a piece of junk from what I've read. Great tab for a child or wife to serve a single purpose but not as a daily driver. The oddball SoC is not very good.

Nexus because of the screen
Besides it's processor, what else concerns me are the edges of the Memo Pad 7 HD. Apparently where the back and front halves meet along the edges the back half plastic is 1cm wider making a sharp edge on the sides that dig into your fingers. Reviewers complain about this being uncomfortable.
I learned a long time ago (well 2 and a half years to be exact) that Nexus is the only way to go.
Yea my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 was stuck at gingerbread. It recently got CM10 and barely. My only non nexus phone was a LG G2x, nuff said.
You work so hard trying to make it into a "nexus" that you just set yourself up for failure.

Nexus 7 vs nexus 5

Hi,
So I have a nexus 5 and love it. I've just been given a few hundred pounds bonus at work to spend on "gadgets" and can't really think of anything to buy, and I've always thought about getting a tablet.
I just wanted to ask, since I have a nexus 5 is there much point? The only benefits I can see are bigger screen, longer battery life and probably better for playing games and watching movies on. Is there any other benefit to having a nexus 7? Does anyone here own both and regret/recommend it?
Thanks in advance,
Jack
I have a nexus 5 and I just bought nexus 7 2013 lte model, I don't regret it, It fits on my pockets easily so I use it most of the time instead of my phone,
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I own both plus a stay at home iPad 4. I get great use out of all of these devices.
Have both, the N7 WiFi version. The N7 does everything but phone calls much more conveniently when I'm at home because of the larger screen and extended battery life. If you're thinking about getting an iPad I'd recommend he N7. I had an iPad and replaced it with the N7 and have no regrets whatsoever.
I had a G'Nex + N7 2012 for the last year. Got my N5 last week and it made my N7 feel so sluggish I started thinking about getting the 2013 N7 with free shipping + $25 Google play credit. On black Friday I saw 32GB N7 on sale for $225 so figured I'd go for it. While it's still not as crazy fast as the N5 it's a nice upgrade over the old N7, and while I use my phone when I'm mobile, when I'm laying in bed or sitting at a desk I prefer the larger screen for other than phone purposes.
So yes, it's great owning both.

I have a nexus 5 and I just bought nexus 7 2013 lte model, I don't regret it, It fits on my pockets easily so I use it most of the time instead of my phone,
