Hi Guys,
I am currently have Note 10.1 3G version and I am eying to a smaller form factor Nexus 7 (second gen?). Do you think it would be worth to replace my current tab to Nexus 7? Or maybe Note 8.0 ?
I am looking a portable yet powerful tab. I dont watch full length movie or play intensive games on tab. What i need is to be able to check my emails, fb, chat with friends, play bit of simple games , skype, Google apps, maps. I also need a tab thay has capability of wifi hotspot.
Your thoughts please.

its time to try new generation laptop-tablet hybrid
waiting for N7 2nd gen
I suggest waiting for the 2nd gen Nexus 7. It may be the best 7" tablet on the market when it comes out and it could be only $200-250 if they price it like the first gen. The rumor is that it will be announced next month, so let's wait and see!

The second gen nexus 7 when it is released would be a good buy because it can easily perform all the tasks you need it to do. If you are in a hurry you could just buy the first gen nexus 7.

Nexus Suggestion
I do agree with the others, I have bought 2 Nexus 7 tablets 6 months ago and I agree that having 4.2.2 out of the box is awesome considering some of the latest phones are just starting to get it, they are ahead as far as software goes. they are lean with an AOSP interface but as well as they are stable, Ive found that the battery as much as it should be awesome is not stellar on either of the 2 I own. I am not hypocritical of the device as I think they're awesome but for the $199 they are worth it.. and if the 2nd gen matches in price with improved specs, it's a win-win...
Cool.. Thanks guys. Im sure the new nexus 7 is worth buying. But we are not sure when this new device will be release, but still I'm holding for awhile

Nexus 7 because of newer features.
Nexus 7
Nexus 7 for having better processor.
iPad 3 for bigger screen.
Nexus 7 if you want Android updates that bring better features.
I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it's still on Android 3.2 honeycomb.
It's one of the reasons that I bought this nexus. My future android devices will all be nexus.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
If you dont mind having a smaller screen go for the nexus 7 i have a galaxy tab but its really slow also nexus 7 has jellybean and will recieve future updates before the galaxy tab (if they ever get an update) i really hope google makes a 10.1" version of the nexus, hope i helped
TY
Thanx for your reply guyzz!
I will definitely go for n7!

hi jainkashish96! for me is nexus 7 for same reasons of choosing galaxy nexus. it's google's "official" tablet, full support, fresh updates with no long waiting, no limitation caused by other company and olso an nvidia kay! i think Kay is one of the best idea for mobile world, especially for tablets . don't forget the dimension, perfect for me, a good compromise.
Nexus 7 for sure Go for it
take a look at this, http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/nexus-7-review/ and keep in mind function like google now that is million times better than s-voice that personally consider an app/service that samsung had to add for upcoming voice assistant services, but is only a s**** app on a device, badly developed
interessant question i have the same problem do you want hel pme please?

No idea. If it isn't than it might be a nice buy. Also, thee is a huge thread on this in the nexus 7 forums, if you want to look at that.

If you can install a custom ROM maybe. Otherwise Kindle are way too "closed" for my taste.
Anyway I m waiting for Ipad mini (if it's exist and jb) and new Windows RT tablet. I ll decide around XMas.
I don't think there will be sub 10" tablet on Windows RT. Microsoft should have start on that market right from the start.
nexus 7
I'm in the process of trying to sell nexus 7 and buy 8.9 hd tab. I love nexus 7 works very well and nexus device rocks as long its not on verizon. I've come to realize i dont like 7inch form factor. I watch movies mostly. I like the bigger size and screen.

Hi boys, and girls
As my 2 year contract on my carrier, is getting to the finish line, i want to get something new. (I will keep my small litle muscle phone O1 as a second phone )
At the first i wanted the galaxy nexus, because of the great software support, and the developement, in our xda forum.
Then suddenly i saw the new Optimus 4x, but, there is one but. There is no developement in here, because of locked bootloader
I really don`t know what to take. Thought about the Xperia S, but nope.
The phones what i need to choose from , are - 1. Galaxy nexus
2. Optimus 4x
Maybe Acro S ?
Maybe some other suggestions?
Maybe the new LG Nexus? It'll be $399 on Google Store unsubsidized according to rumors.

Yeah, but it will not be available in my country for a while.
seeing how often google release OS.
I will stick to nexus device for fastest OS update
I love my Google experience device motorola xoom running AOSP jelly bean
Yeah. I think I'd go for the new nexus phone. Just wait for a lil while
I think getting a new LG phone is a waste, Anything other than a galaxy nexus is.
The new android OS? Availably from day 1.
Every app is tested on that first, which means closer to no bugs.
I think that i will take Galaxy Nexus. Just because of software support, developement. The performance is also o.k No need for 4 cores.

Nexus of you want it right now. I say wait till the holiday is over. I bet you a slick new device will come out by then. A new nexus and HTC has already announced the HTC one x+ and also a 5 inch device. You sir must wait.

I own an iPad 3rd generation and I am extremely unhappy with what Apple just did. I am however happy with my iPad (even tough I cant stand the iPhone and wouldnt trade my HTC One X for anything else). My experience with Android tablets isn't great. I played with the Galaxy Note Tab 10.1 and it sucks big time and the Nexus 7 is too small. The Transformer Prime TF300 sucked I find; a couple of friends have it and found it laggy and buggy (I got random reboot only looking at pictures. Maybe a custom rom can fix that?!)
I want to basically sell the iPad not because I am not happy with it but because I am fed up with Apple. What would be a good replacement for my iPad?
-I want retina display aka high DPI
-Smooth
-10"
What is out there that I missed?!
Asus transformer pad infinity. Seems to be what you are looking for.
Samsung (Google Nexus 10) potentially being released in the Android event in 4 days. It will supposedly have a higher dpi than the iPad 3.

Depends on if u want portability. If u have the money the Nexus 10 is better spec wise. I don't know if I was playing with a defective Nexus 7 but it was really choppy. But that could have been my experience. Conclusion. Got the money? Get Nexus 10
I would go with the nexus 7 most def. I have 2 in household and for the price they are a bargain.

I have the Nexus 7 it is the perfect size for a tablet, I use my for doing some web surfing and playing some games. You sir may be looking for the Nexus 10 because your going to be playing games and watching movies so the big screen will be good for you. However Both devices are amazing I consider them being the same with diffrent screen sizes to be honest. Enjoy!
Cheers
hey guys, Thanks for all of your input, but i think ill have to get both, first the nexus 10 for performance and the amazing Screen,and the nexus 7 later on, for the portability, and on the go gaming, and web surfing Just have to wait 6 Weeks for the nexus 10 now Grrrr come on pay day's!,
again, i cant thank you all enough, it was hard to pick one so yeah ill have to get both lol
thanks, amatris
nexus 7 for portable
If you look to play games, watch movies and search internet, I suggest you should invest in Nexus 10.
It is much expensive, but high density screen and well functioning OS won't disappoint you.
Both works, but have you played with tablets of both sizes ?
It depends on you, but I, personally, found 7" sort of pointless after having a 5" phone. I can't really fit a 7" tablet comfortably in a pocket (I could probably get it in a blazer hip pocket, but that would be a large ridiculous flat block sticking out of me) so I don't think it's really and more portable - 7" or 10", it's not going in a pocket, it's going in a bag.
I think 7" is good for those who are looking for more of a larger-screen iPod Touch - an "entertainment device" - not so much web-browsing. I found watching video significantly more "immersive" on a 10" tablet. 7" is a good size for an "eReader +", as well.
