Nexus 7 2013 64GB exists - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Today i've got a very weird tablet. It's Nexus 7 2013 LTE version with 64GB of memory. A guy who sold me this tablet is the author of a video on Youtube called "asus google nexus 7 lte (2013) 64gb". Sad but i can't post it because i'm new user, but you can easily find it for sure. Anyway it's real memory, i've tried to download some huge videos and everything is fine - 55 GB is free and available to use.
Metal shields on the motherboard are not damaged, so it looks like factory mistake or something like this.
Does anyone have another Nexus 7 with 64GB or is it so unique?

I can prove it's not a fake if needed. But i really want to know is it the only Nexus 7 tablet with 64GB in the world?

That is very weird indeed, it was probably a developer model or a test model that got cut from release late in production. If it truly has 64GB then I suggest keeping it as it is extremely rare

And if you ever sell the device, it could bring a lot of money , if sold to the right, interested person, because it could be one of a kind or one of very few in existence

If anyone interested i'm selling this tablet on ebay. Item 252132269415

Cool tablet. If you would have sold it a year ago, it would have brought in a good amount of money. Now, its a bit outdated. Good luck with your sale.

Nexus 7 Worth it?

So right now I have a Nexus 4, and a laptop for work. I was thinking about getting a tablet for media consumption, so I was wondering if anyone can help justify my decision. Is there a point of having a Nexus 7 even with a laptop?
I have been in the same boat, I actually purchased my Nexus 7 last week. I actually owned last year's as well. I find the screen size very accommodating for media consumption (games, Netflix, music). I use my Bluetooth headphones and I am completely wireless. Go for it, go to Slickdeals.net there is a link for a $50 off coupon in store or online and free shipping. I paid less for my 32gb than the usual price of the 16gb, win.

Get it! Every time I look at the awesome display I'm so happy I picked one of these up! I used to use my GNote 2 for everything but now it sits collecting dust.
I am also planning to buy one. Since I read here that many people face multi-touch issue and other problems so iss there any batch which has no problems? I use HTC one x and few had hardware WiFi problems. So august batch was perfect as HTC admitted the issue which i bought. Since with my budget this is the best tab I am kind of leaned towards it. But I can't have one which has any problem coz In my country there is no replacement warranty for nexus devices. Is there any way to check the batch number to get a perfect device? I see people mentioning something like mkbh and krt. I guess these are versions. Which will be better? I want to check every possible thing that I can before buying?

i brought my Nexus 7 to take with me instead of a laptop, bcs i was tired of it's weight to be honest, and surfing around, remote control my home pc and all that i did on the laptop i can do from my tablet as i do now, so i am happy even it was a little of an "investment" but it's nice not having to open and have to use wired bcs it's an older laptop i use.
and i even watched anime with my tablet aswell with headphones on and it all just works wonderful and it don't get hot that's the best part

Is it worth buying?

Hi guys,
Thinking of going and getting a 2013 Nexus 7 now. I would like to know how many really are effected by the touchscreen problems. Is it as bad as it is made out to be and would you recommend buying it?
I know some will say it doesnt have a problem and some say it does, but I am looking more at an overview. Is it worth buying or looking elsewhere?
Cheers all

Very small. Also, consider buying 32gb version if you want to eliminate all chances of getting defective device since 32gb versions are better built (strange as it sounds).
As for "worth buying" goes, I would definitely made the same choice and get this over any other tablet. Form factor is the best, screen is very good, good specs, cheap, and above all, the best android experience (pure stock with 100% guarantee for future android updates as soon as they are out since this is nexus device).
I have the 2012 version so was planning on skipping this one (both 32GB). But then I got my nexus 5 which made my old n7 feel very slow, so when I saw the 2013 n7 on sale I bought it knowing I could take it back if I decided it wasn't worth the upgrade. Mine doesn't have any problems and is so much superior than the old one I kind of wish I hadn't waited so long to upgrade.
Definitely worth buying.

I upgraded too after seeing one used at a good price. I've had no complaints with either device so far, though obviously the new version is a bit faster.

Well I bit the bullet and bought the 32Gb to replace a Tesco Hudl that died twice. Only been using it for 30 minutes, upgraded to 4.4.2 went fine and so far no touch problems.
Is really very smooth.
Cheers for the quick replies.

Maybe you can wait to see reviews of the LG G Pad Google Play Edition that just show out.

Exactly my experience except that I did buy one sooner (right after release) only to return it --major touch issues but also very poor display (same as old n7). This one is great. Bought gpad 8.3 which is going back. New N7 (16GB) is a better performer overall for my needs.

- I have not had any touch screen issues to date and I am using the 16GB.
- Coming from the original Kindle Fire (rooted) this was a massive upgrade and I absolutely love the device (Screen, audio, etc)
I have no touchscreen issues on the 16GB.
I absolutely recommend it. This tablet is fantastic.
My 32g is perfect. Staples has a 10% off coupon right now if anyone is looking to buy. The coupon is on their daily deals coupon page. Cheers

i love my n7 - the size i sperfect !
JUST GOT MINE TODAY...it's totally worth buying:highfive:
Should be using mine in about a week! Hope I don't have any of the touchscreen issues or reboot issues people keep complaining about! I ordered the 32gb version so hopefully its awesome! Hopefully you get one and both of ours work fine :highfive: , from all the reviews and people that own them they seem to be quite the 7in tablet!

Is buying the Nexus 7 (2013) still worthy?

Good evening.
I was wondering if I should get the Nexus 7 (2013) or wait for the next Google Tablet may it be a nexus or silver or L or whatever it is called.
As I understood instead of ASUS google chose HTC for its next device.
The thing is, I was curious and wanted to wait for it..
But - I found the nexus 7 (2013) 16GB for 195$.
Any suggestions ?
btw, I read some mixed review - does it have an external SD option or not ?
thanks in advance.
Definitely buy the current tablet its great and it will get the L update soon. 1.5 GHz doesn't seem like a lot compared to others but trust me, great tablet easy to root. Tons of support and big community. Buy the current nexus 7.

Thanks mate ... seriously considering it ...
Question though... Can you swap its battery or put in an SD card ?
Since its not water proof I assume you could, but I can't seem to find anything to support that...
some sites say it has SD and in some others when I look at the specs. it doesn't mention the SD option...
I guess NEXUS 7 (2013) only have 1 version right ? (I live in Japan so we tend to get "special" versions)

No on both questions. There are two versions of the Nexus 7 (2013): WiFi only and LTE. Although, I don't know what availability the LTE version is outside the US.

Have a nice day.
You would want 32gb if storage is an issue, I got mine 3 months back and its worth it but I'm wondering if lte is better since I could just use it as a phone instead. Having phone and tablet is a luxury to me especially with 4+ inch screens.
I use a server at home for data storage.
The tablet is thin and it fits in my pockets comfortably.
Its not too late, the screen is superior than average and the performance is quick
After returning my Nexus 7 twice to Asus and finally getting a good working unit, I've found that my Note 3 kills this tablet. Washed out colors, slower performance, and gets hot quick. Nexus 7 is a good device for you first time tablet owners and those that don't have a larger smartphone. Good luck if you decide to buy, there will always be good dev support for this device.
You should buy it if you really need it. I guess 195$ for Wifi only, right?
I own one, it is good device and lot of support. But I have an Android phone and a big laptop, so that sometime I only use my n7 for chatting when I work.
7inch is good. But if I were you, I would wait the new 8inch
They have certified refurbished off of Ebay right now for only $159 which is what I picked up for a 32gb Wifi. Figured its cheap enough that even if I only use it for a bit it should be worth it and will be a big replacement for my Asus T700
It is a fantastic device. I am in love with mine even after owning a Galaxy Tab S. Definitely a good buy at that price. I would always buy new... Never returned but that is personal preference.
I got the LTE and my daughters have the WiFi 2012. Both great and I do a lot of gaming in multiplayer. But the new nexus looks like it has been really improved and word is end of summer it may come out. If it were me I'd probably wait unless I really needed one right away.

Is the Nexus 7 still worth buying?

Hey guys.
So, I was thinking about buying an Android tablet, so, as I am a Nexus 5 owner, my first thought was the Nexus 9, but the thing is just too expensive for me, I want something on the cheap side.
So after thinking for a bit I remembered the N7, it's got great hardware, it runs Lollipop and its freaking cheap. But it's from 2013, which I know its not necessarily a bad thing, so I want your opinion as you actually have the tablet.
Is it still worth buying? Amazon is selling it for $197.
I bought my Nexus 7 eleven months ago. I'm very satisfied with it. If you're planning to root it and unlock the bootloader, you'll be able to update with custom ROMs for quite awhile. If you're planning to run it stock unrooted, you may want to consider a newer tablet.
Yes, I think so. There's one 1 other tablet that can compete in terms of price, support, and price: the LG G Pad 8.4 GPE. Good luck finding one though. I didn't buy my Nexus 7 until this summer and I couldn't be happier.
Updates for the rest of this year, at a minimum. My only issue is with deb updates, which get held up due to LTE. Save yourself some more money by buying a refurb unit.
This may sway you... Check your local Staples store - they're having an unpublished clearance on 2013 Nexus 7. $98 for 16GB or $128 for 32GB. Many stores no longer have stock, but of you can find one it's a great deal.

Definitely gonna check this out. Thanks a lot ?
And thank you all for your quick reply.
I just bought mine like 2 weeks ago.... It was a decent price (before the groupon deal)
and it does exactly what I need it to... which is work dual purpose as a home/car tablet.
Honestly I would have rather had a Nexus 10, just because I am a bit of an HTC fanboy,
But in just home use it's still faster than my HTC One M7. actually.... a lot faster.
Has decent dev support, not so much in the way of car roms/mods but still a good overall tablet.
Im still using my 2012 version
I was really excited for the Nexus 9 but I think it'll be too big and the price point is too high. I have repurchased my Nexus 7 a few times due to dropping and theft. The touchscreen on the Nexus 7 2013 is flaky when using a case or 1-handed operation because of a grounding issue with the device. Using the device 2 handed like normal you will rarely see any issues.
Gaming on the other hand is retarded on the Nexus 7 2013.
I try to play Terraria and it is just a frustrating mess. The dual thumbpad touchscreen controls get confused occasionally and causes me to either shoots or run off in the wrong direction. You have to take both thumbs off to reset it temporarily. Just FYI. This is normal across all Nexus 7 units as far as I have known. Some are more noticeable than others but they all have it. There are some flashable fixes that update the touchscreen firmware to have various degrees of sensitivity to help fix this but nothing is ever fixed completely. The fixes have helped make my tablet more enjoyable to use day-to-day but gaming will never be 100%.
I have purchased a Asus MeMoPad 7 for $20 for my son. A little lackluster tablet but plays games better then my Nexus 7.
Personally I was looking at the Nvidia Shield Tablet with a digitizer pen enabled screen. It seems to have issues of its own. The LG G Tabs, as mentioned above, are really solid tablets. I know you can pick up an LG version (with LG software) for pretty cheap. There isn't much development on that tablet though, unfortunately.
The Nexus 7 2013 is a steal at $128 if you can find one. Very solid unit. If my Nexus 7 2013 broke today, I would look else where.
Its worth every Penny..
Go for it.. I just received mine .. and flashed with the Android 5.0.2. factory image
Its magical

I have had my Nexus 7 2013 for well over a year and I wouldn't replace it for anything. I did break last month when I slipped it into my back pocket like an idiot I sat on it and it broke the screen. Although Asus lost my Nexus for almost a month, it was still covered by its warranty..and they repaired it for free.. I Now use a Galaxy Tab 4 8.0, but its no Nexus.. I like the bigger screen, its the Nexus is still better in every way except there is no Micro SD slot.. I need a device I can carry with me that has a Micro SD.. Hence the use for the Galaxy tab.. But if you'd ask me to choose between the 2.. I'd take the Nexus any day..
If the price is right I don't think you can go far wrong. Internally, it's pretty much a Nexus 4 with a Full HD screen and a much better battery. :highfive:
I've had the LG Gad 8.3 for a day and whilst its a nice piece of kit, the aluminium back is slippery and being that touch bigger, you can't get your hand around it like the Nexus 7. There is also a ton of bloat.
Whilst I'm not convinced by Lollipop on my phone, it runs great on the Nexus 7. :victory:
i bought mine from tweakers.nl for 117 € it was a used one without warranty

Nexus 7 discontinued?

http://www.theverge.com/2015/4/25/8495999/google-nexus-7-discontinued
I am hoping this means "until the next product refresh", but for now the N7 is no longer available through Google.
I still love it, the old one didn't have back camera an Qi. I'll skip the 9, as it too big. Maybe consider, go nexus 6 way, instead of 2 devices...

Google might introduce a Nexus 7 ( 2015 ) or similar Tablet soon ? It seems that the Nexus 9 was not a huge success after all ?

Probably because it is bloody expensive for what it is, and fails to offer features found on similarly priced units. It has a lower resolution display (pixels per inch) than the N7, no SD card slot like nearly every other tablet in its price range, no wireless charging, etc. and it costs more than a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1!
The whole attraction to the Nexus 7 was that it was a very good tablet at a very good price. Even at the $229 I paid for mine new over a year ago, I felt it was a solid deal - enough that I could live with the few restrictions (like no SD card slot). At today's prices, it is a fantastic deal.
The Nexus 9? Not so much. At that price point, the stuff that got left off is more embarrassing.
