Nexus 10 is good but sound quality is rediculous
wanna thank xda? here
I don't understand. Please help me out. How can everyone recommend nexus 10 when there are so many problems with it? I bought mine about 5 days ago and its already crashed over a dozen times. I came here looking for something I can replace it with. I'm having many issues and so are others. People were expecting an update months ago. I don't even think Google acknowledges all these bugs. Did someone figure out a way to stop these crashes or something I don't know about? Please help. Why should I keep it?

This is how it is. Most people keep talking about the specifications which a device boasts. But in reality, there are numerous things to consider. Nexus 10 is an amazing device, but as you said, it does have its own issues. One should look for something from Samsung as even though little expensive, they produce better devices.
in dealextreme there are a lot, and very cheap
Nexus 7 is a really good deal. Or Nexus 10.

Whatever happened to the nexus tablet? There is no word on it anymore. Has it been scrapped? Any other tablets coming up soon? I'm in the market for one and was wondering what tablets are lined up this year.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I remember reading that it was supposed to come out in or around July. Supposedly being built by ASUS and with a $249 or lower price point. I have so far been completely underwhelmed by every Android tablet to date, but at $249 I would pick one up just for the heck of it.
There's the Asus MeMO pad. High specs at $250.
I'm also waiting for this. I hope we hear something soon.

I believe the MeMO pad became the Nexus Tab. Last I heard, they were ditching the Tegra 3 in favor of a cheaper dual core SoC, and aiming to to get it down into the 149-199 range to go toe to toe with the Kindle Fire. Haven't heard much since though.
I think they r trying to keep it on the down low and surprise everyone. Rumors were June iirc

Tablet.
Oh I cant wait. not wanting anything else but an android tablet but it seems hard to pick the right one. I hope the Nexus Tablet ends all that.
I'm definitely getting a tablet soon, but I'm not really interested in Tegra devices. I guess I'll wait for something with an Exynos quad, but I guess I'll have to wait in that case, Samsung will probably make it an exclusive of the S3, at least for a while. I hope I'm wrong tho...

I am!
I am not really sure why, or which one I will keep, though... but the price was right, to try it out.
The Nexus 7 was tempting, but I think there will be better (for me) offerings in the fall. I want a micro SD card. The google experience brand was a selling point since it will have support and speedy rom updates, but I want to give my money to a company that makes the tablet that I want. The TF infininty seems like it has all the right specs.

8GB is fine for me. I basically wanted it for its size. Carrying around a huge 10 inch tablet gets old. I'll still have my tf101 with micro sd and hdmi. Basically its an e-reader for me.

Well the infinity is what 600 dollars. There is no way I would buy a tablet for that price, because there will just be something bigger and better in 6 months. Maybe it's just me, but I waited in a line for 6 hours just to get my tf101 for $250. Two months after I bought that the prime came out.

Yup, that was a deal breaker for me. There are a few reasons that lack of a micro SD is a bummer for me: 1) it's much easier to fix a semi-bricked device if I can just throw something on an SD card and flash it. 2) I usually keep a few movies on my current tablet and it's convenient to keep them on an microSD card that I can pop in when I'm on long flights, etc. 3) I think the lack of micro SD is a subtle way to push me to the cloud. I've got my own "cloud" and if the google/dropbox/ubuntu one cloud is good, then I will make the switch, but I don't like that decision to be made for me.
So, yeah, I'm holding my breath and my dollars for a tablet that has a micro SD slot. I will say that as a "toy", the price for the nexus 7 is pretty appealing.

I would be all over the 7 if I didn't already have a TF101 32gb, with the dock. But, I figure this is a damn good tablet, and since Asus makes the 7, we've got a good chance of getting JB.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I was deciding between the Nexus 7 and the Transformer Infinity for my first tablet purchase. The iPad was out because of the closed ecosystem, and I have already paid for android apps on my phone that will scale up well once installed on the tablet. The Nexus 7 was almost a no brainer for me, it has a great price, quad-core processor, amazing screen and great software support from Google except for the lack of
1. MicroSD expandability (gameloft games on average take up at least 2 gigs of internal memory)
2. HDMI-out (with apps like Netflix, Hulu plus, and HBO go not to mention flash support, being able to output that to a TV screen is a huge plus)
For about twice as much as the Nexus 7, the Infinity offers a higher resolution screen that's also brighter powered by a top of the line quad core processor. It also includes a microSD slot, 8 mp camera, microHDMI out and the ability to expand via a mobile docking station that adds additional battery life, full sized USB OTG support and a SD slot. I have to say that all the additional features are worth the extra premium. I don't have to worry about storage space and the tablet functions much like a laptop replacement for me. If you're on the fence between the two, I'd say go for the Infinity.
Thanks dude yeah I have the nexus 7 now ...idk it just seems like an overweight galaxy nexus ....I'm really leaning on getting the tf700

I had the same situation, I was wondering between Nexus 7 and Asus Infinity. Those were actually the only options I was considering.
Lets just say that finally the decision turned into Infinity because here in FInland cannot yet buy Nexus 7. Also because I already have a big screened phone (SGS3) i was thinking that the difference between phone and tablet would then be quite small.
My feelings are quite divided currently. On the other hand I love the screen, it is sharp and nice. I like to read books and magazines from it. But then on the other hand the Android system is very laggy. Not sure what is going on here but this is much worse than for example with Galaxy S 2 and no reason to put this on the same table with Galaxy S 3.
Also for example right now I just for some reason lost connection to wifi and this claims not in range. However I have Galaxy S 3 and ipad 1 just next to it and both are working just fine..
I truly hope this is just some sucky software, but currently can't say I am impressed...

Yeah, I had a nexus 7. It wasn't bad just didn't have enough space. It was surely an upgrade to the galaxy tab 8.9 I had before it. I gave my mom the nexus 7 when I picked up the Infinity, and the Infinity is great. The FFC on the Infinity is nice for Skype and the key-dock isn't bad. Its a little small but not hard to type on. I have extra-large glove sized hands and I never get typos on regular keyboards, but do get a few on the Infinity's. I wouln't want to write a novel on the Infinity but for short papers, emails, etc its not bad at all and beats onscreen keyboards hands down. Lots of luck in your decision making.

I have both...the Nexus 7 is fun to play games on and read on...also, there is a lot of development for it already and it's fun to flash new roms and kernels. It does have serious storage limitations and you just can't use it for anything related to productivity, at least I can't. The TF infinity is just a bigger. more meaty tablet...I'm typing this now on the keyboard dock, got a wireless mouse, and with the super battery life I'm getting, I really don't need a laptop. I'm running the Zeus rom and it's much smoother and snappier than before.

That's because it's impossible to answer a question like that - we are not you - we don't use the device the same as you would. How can someone else decide which device is better for you? That's a personal decision based on your usage and personal preferences!
Personally, I think the Nexus 7 and the Infinity are two completely different beasts. It's very hard to truly compare them. One is small enough to slide it your jacket pocket and one is more of a netbook replacement (assuming you get the keyboard dock). They really are geared toward different audiences.
So, to answer you question - go to a store and try them out and see which you would prefer! That's the only way to really answer your question.

I was in the same exact situation as you! I bought the Nexus 7 and really did like it especially the smoothness and the feel of jelly bean. But I have an Evo 4G lte 4.5 inch screen it just felt like a bigger version of it. So I sold the Nexus 7 and bought the Infinity and I've had it for a couple of days and I have mixed feelings. The screen on the infinity is amazing, but the lagginess and wifi dropping off is kinda getting on my nerves. The Nexus 7 did not have these issues I'm disappointed in the performance and debating exchanging it and trying a new one. I think in retrospect I should have kept the Nexus and the Infinity. Just my two cents.

I have the Nexus 7 and someone is offering me a swap and I only have to add 200 dollars for the 64gb version! The form factor of the N7 is unbeatable, it's extremely portable and easy to play games on. Surfing is a breeze and you don't feel tired when holding it for a very long time. On the other hand the screen has a lot less to be desired upon AND the screen flickering issue of the n7 is INSANE. I was just about ready to give up on the n7 but I just flashed AOKP build 3 and it might have just did the trick! I also brought my router closer and I think it does help.
I've been reading on the transformer and it has the same screen flickering issue so I'm having second thoughts.

I have a tab 2 10.1. It hasn't had any fc or problems. It also doesn't have very much dev support. It runs well for me, it's rooted, and I use it for watching movies and surfing the web.
Look into the note tablet and the nexus 7. Those are better tablets as far as specs go. They probably also have more dev support. Up to you though, the tab 2 works just fine for me.

I've had a nexus 7 for a few months now. I love it. The constant android os updates are a huge plus for me. There's pretty good dev support, too. For the price, I'm shocked at how much I like it.
There are a few bugs with the screen. Some users report a horizontal line of burnt pixels developing, and other users report blurry edges. My nexus 7 developed the horizontal line last week. I made a three minute phone call and a new nexus 7 arrived two days later. Not bad at all. I've read the screen issues have been fixed as of now.
Oh, it's also easy as heck to root and maintain. Rooting took me less than 10 minutes from start to finish.
Edit:
It depends if u really want a similar experience as the skyrocket. I imagine the Samsung tablets may be a good pick. I found the uber clean stock Android 4.2 system on the N7 was simple enough for me to bounce and forth between the skyrocket and not go bald or blind from stress.

Hello everybody!!
I just have a quick question before i purchase the 10.1... it has now been a full year since the original release of the 10.1 and im wondering if i should wait to purchase it or wait for an announcement for a new one? From my understanding is the Note 8.0 that came out this year was the "release" for this years note tablet? i would also like to hear your reviews on the tablet... yes i have read about the ups and downs of the tablet already but i would love to hear what you guys have to say!! I originally had the Samsung Galaxy Note (cell phone) and loved it but after having it for some time i felt like it was too big for my pocket, so i got the SIII when it came out... now i have the SIV... and let me tell you... i love this phone... but i hella miss the S Pen... so if you could fill me in on some stuff id greatly appreciate it!!!
Thanks in Advanced!!!
Apparently there is some new thing called the Ativ or something like that on the horizon. I don't know much more other than maybe around 700 bucks? There's always some new gizmo in the works.
I have an S4 also and its great. Get a cpen for it! There is a small tipped nonactive stylus made special for the s3 and s4. Not as good as an spen but works pretty good with smemo. Samsung or ikross makes them.

Refurbished on sale at Walmart for 279 right now. Good price in my opinion.

Ive never really been a huge fan of buying Refurbished stuff cause i dont know why it was refurbished... but might have to take a look depending on when they announce a new one

I love my Note 10.1. and I'm glad I did not wait last Dec. when I saw the deal I got ($385.00 delivered).
Don't wait, go get one. Why would you wait 4 to 6 more months and pay almost what I bet would be nearly triple the price of the Walmart deal now. Hey you could sell it on ebay in 6 months if you see one that you like more and if you get the 2 Year warranty with accident coverage for $36.00. (THAT IS A DEAL!!) you have not a worry that someone wouldn't buy it on ebay.
You could even save another $20 with this offer (Open a Walmart Credit Card, Spend $100 Today and Get $20 Back), and you get 6 months to pay with zero interest.
I may just go buy a 2nd one and give it to the Wife........ SHHHHHHH don't tell Her.
I still say wait , it will beb released by September's worth the wait imo, you will be ahead of the curve and the envy of your classmates, if the leaked benchmarks are true the thing is gonna be a beast, its only two months Wait! Lol

haha ya especially when the gf says if you buy this one you cant buy the new one... you always do that... lol... shes right... i do always end up doing that... lol ill just have to make her understand that it was the refurbished one or something... lol or just dont tell her =P UGH.... what to do what to do!!!
I'm in a similar situation, I'm looking at the Wal-Mart deal for 16g at $280 and also on what they gave them regularly for ~$380 32g (refurbished). Is the 32gig with $100 more?
i currently have the Asus TF700 32g and a Note 2 16g.... I'm thinking to sell the TF700. nothing wrong with it, i just want the s-pen functionality on my tablet.

I dont think its worth spending 100$ more. You can easily get a 64gb memory card for around 50
