Hey guys,
As the title says, this topic is just for all of you out there who already received our beloved tablet.
Please post pictures of your Nexus 7 in action, the package contents and a mini review and/or first impressions of it.
Cheers!
Mine arrived, order Thursday at 15:30 arrived Friday 09:30 from eBuyer.
I sold a Nook Tablet to purchase this, so I allready like the 7" factor, but Chrome is amazing on this, really great browsing experience.
Google Now does not seem to work very well in the UK yet or show anything useful without voice.
Got my £15 free Play credit instantly, but no sign of the Transformers Movie on my 16GB version.
i like that.. but applied ur screen protector yet? or any case to go along?
Forgot to mention the Serial number peels of the back stupidly easily, I thought it was a sticky plastic cover, but no the whole serial number peels off, So I stuck it to the plastic film and put it back in the box.
So, can anyone confirm the audio quality via 3.5mm jack? Is it as bad as what some are saying?

I take it we get a proper uk power adapter, not the US shown in all the other pics?
Sorted the Movie problem. I was using a Google Account from my Domain not a Gmail one.
Had to enable YouTube on my domain and it then worked.
Now have the Transformers Movie.

I'm not a great judge, using some cheap Sennheiser headphones, and its not amazing.
I need to have it on the maximum volume to hear it, its very quiet and the quality is not great.
Not amazing.
Shame. I was all set to buy one, but since I'll primarily be using it for watching films and listening to music using headphones, that's a bit of a deal breaker.

Yeah, that's pretty disappointing. I wasn't too bothered about the external speakers but I was expecting half decent headphone audio quality. Ah well, guess I'm not gonna buy one now.
Wait for the custom ROM's. I am sure they will improve that sound volume.
I have mine... a little smaller than I expected, but still a great size for typing etc
Some apps have problems with the tablet mode though. I can see why they went for the phone layout, the tablet mode when vertical is too small to use. As for smoothness, the launcher and system ui in general is much improved, but there is no difference in third party apps. Touch sensitivity and response is incredible, however. They may have to be updated, Im not too sure. The screen is also a little washed out.
However, I still love it and can't wait to spend the rest of the day on it xD yay!

Its the quality I'm more concerned about I'm afraid and no amount of custom ROMs or DSP enhancement will overcome poor signal to noise unfortunately.
Meh, I might still give one a demo in store, I've got a selection of headphones - maybe it will sound ok on some of them.
Didn't hear anything about audio problems before, hope it won't be that bad though, did you try any other headphones?

The audio review on "The Verge" site is actually pretty decent (8 out of 10).

Never felt comfortable with in-ear headset that came with Nexus S, I don't really fancy the style and comfortable just with earbuds as from time to time I want my friend to listen to the sound quality of Voodoo+FLAC in Nexus S.
Instead of the original headset, I used the one that came with my previous Motorola Milestone if I'd like to listen to music and having the option of receiving call through it......but...I needed more juice out of it. My ears and brain have been accustomed to the sound of YUIN PK3 which I have but that earbuds has no mic.

To combine what I need sans the Kawahara cable, this is what I did to the original Samsung Nexus S headset:
Pried open the original headset
De-soldered the cable
Pried open my YUIN PK3 earbuds
Soldered back the cable
Voila!

That's classy, throw some flacs on there and enjoy it you deserve it. Wish i was good with small wires.
Pretty cool. I also suck with small wires so I can't do it.
Off topic as well but, what case is that?
Yep..it is really small and I got a very shaky hands, I can't even draw a straight line slowly. I used helping hand to do that.

Why do their headphones look so cheap
With the help of your write-up, I just did this exact mod and it turned out great. Thanks for the idea!
Where'd you get the red and white earbud foam?
I bought it from online shop in China, there are couple seller who sell similar on ebay, just search for "white/red earbud foam"...but I have yet to see the doughnut style color foam
Just thought I'd update on this mod.
So earlier I reported that I had replaced the cord on my Klipsch S4 headphones with the stock nexus buds.
Worked great until the stock cord had problems with the strain relief and the connection.
Overall, to anybody who uses their headphones daily, this mod isn't worth it. The stock cord is just too cheap.

I believe I'd run into the same problem with the Klipsch wires failing. If I were to get the S4s again, I would get the reference series. Already have some extra comply tips, work fantastic.
I've been looking at picking up a pair of X10is for years. I just can't justify it if they are going to break. That and they don't have android integration.

Hello, I want to ask how dismantled the Samsung original headset? With what tool? And then they can be closed or have already broken? I am interested in whether threaded or glued?

Hey guys. Im looking to buy some Beats, but i can't really afford them (i'm 15). I want to buy a fake pair of monster beat solo hd's (black) and after scouring the web for about an hour, I couldn't really find anything. Does anyone know where i can get a pair for less then $60 with good quality? I'm looking especially for people who have bought a fake pair. Thanks

I've read reviews that confirm that.
OP: This is easier than you think, but you've got to know what you want. 2 possibilities.
1: You want Beats as a fashion accessory, not for the sound.
Solution: Buy cheap knock offs from China.
2: You want great sounding headphones and you think Beats are it.
Solution: They aren't. Horrible SQ. www.head-fi.org for research. V-Moda makes some nice/flashy looking headphones that sound great and are priced reasonably.
Sent from the top of my muffin.
Exactly. Don't invest in a fake + crap quality headphones. At 60$ you get some really neat sounding beats too.
Thanks
Yea i have a pair of hesh 2 skullcandies that have pretty good sound, but beats, i guess i just want it mainly as a cosmetic, but i do like how they sound as well. I've used my friends' beats countless times and i honestly don't see anything wrong with them. I mainly use my headphones for music, movies, skype, and games. I'm not extremely picky as long as the sound isn't grainy or anything. Also, i wouldn't wear the hesh 2s in public, they are too bulky and look pretty stupid haha.
Once you hear better headphones, you'll understand what's wrong with Beats. Seriously, though. Head-Fi is THE site for research on this. Music genre and sound preference is very important to buying the right headphones for you.

That always depends upon musical preferences. If you're really into classical music, just as an example, or you thrive on hearing the emotion in a singer's voice, then you'll want a different sound signature than someone who lives for bass.
Beautiful voices aren't so beautiful if the bass is overwhelming, nor can you feel the bass if the highs are emphasized.

Omg. Are you serious? Clones are legally sold everyday in retailers. They are clones, not counterfeits. They don't say Beats on the box. The ultimate legality of patent infringement lies with the courts. If you can buy them at Walmart then the consumer has broken no laws.

I'd be interested to know other suggestions as well.
I have narrowed down my search to only devices that support aptX bluetooth codec. Since our phones support it, it seems like a waste to not use it. Unfortunately, the Jambox and Big Jambox do not. I'm sure they still sound good, but I really want to take advantage of aptX.
Currently, my top choice is the soundmatters foxL v2. Runner up: Braven 650
I've got a Bose Soundlink. Great sound and good travel size but not cheap.

Good Quality sound = money.
I've got the original jambox and recommend it. I've paired and head the soundlink and would say the same - very very crisp good sound.
if you want loud + portable and good sound, the soundfreaq kick is a bargain around 100 bucks
beyond that, the logitech pure-fi (i have two), originally made for idevice docking is a really good sounding bar, rechargable and has aux in; i use it with a paired hs3000 and basically, everything i own is bluetooth.
goodluck! post up if you buy something!

After I did some extended research on internet and in the stores I have decided on Jabra Solemate (link)
GREAT SOUND ( I mean REALLY great and loud), better than monster, bose, etc
4 speakers
battery lasts like 10h
easy up to 4 devices can connect over BT
can connect to computers via USB and mini jack (works with phone as well)
the cover is a unique feature (let's the sound out undistorted, but the water / dust out)
very stable on any surface.
has a mic so you can use it as a conference device
CON
sometimes BT connection with my MacBook Pro is drooping (no clues why). It did not happened with the phone
I have the white version

Another vote for the Bose Soundlink. Battery life is great and it's very portable. You can fine tune the sound with an equalizer app for excellent results. I got mine at BJ's and it included the car charger.

Hi Guys
I bought the Nokia BH-505 bluetooth stereo headset, it is great for music but awful for playing games as there is the problem of sound delay. So the sound of every click i make on the phone is delayed by around 1 second which makes it really annoying
I came across the Jaybird bluebuds X and the review about them seem to be great in terms of sound quality and comfort, but I am not sure whether they also have the issue of the sound delay.
Has anyone used the bluebuds X and can confirm whether there is delay or not, or even if someone can recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset that has no delay
Thanks
I have the Bluebuds X and I haven't noticed any delay. I just use them when I'm working out so I couldn't tell you how they perform when playing a game. For music they are pretty awesome.

Hi guys
Thanks for the feedback, but my main concern is the audio delay which you cannot detect when listening to music. Can you try a game and check whether there is delay. For example when you press the fire button in a game do you hear the fire sound immediately or do you hear it delayed by almost a second? Thanks

I swap mine with TSX500 last week, first I thought it doesn't fit, hard to put the bluebuds inside the foam, but after couple tries, it went in, better comfort, better sound outputs.
An Alternative
I use these:
http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phone-accessories/lg-HBS700-tone
Unfortunately, after testing them with Inotia 4, I found out that the delay is there for these, too. It's kind of strange, though, since there was no such delay before when I used them on my Sensation XE. And then again, when I used them with my Vita, the audio was delayed, too.
Anyway, if you're still interested, there's a newer version of these, the Tone+ or HBS730.

I'd say there is no delay when I play the game Usagi. When I press to swing my sword there is the same delay as when using the phones speakers. Any free games you'd specifically like me to try out? I love these bluebuds

I ordered a mix pack to test out all the sizes. I ended up fitting best with a medium as far as I can tell so I gave the small ones to my GF and I may or may not use the large ones some more to do more testing to see if the larger ones offer better isolation and retain relatively the same comfort.
Delay is there

Hi,
I've these earbuds. Yes, there is 1 second delay in games(Ex : Temple Run). But no delay in videos.
I experience the lag during gaming as well using my BlueAnt Ribbon, and I believe it is a known issue for Android. I read somewhere that 4.2.2 is supposed to fix it.
these are the best sounding bt stereo headphones...period!

I swap mine with TSX500 last week, first I thought it doesn't fit, hard to put the bluebuds inside the foam, but after couple tries, it went in, better comfort, better sound outputs.

Hi Guys
I bought the Nokia BH-505 bluetooth stereo headset, it is great for music but awful for playing games as there is the problem of sound delay. So the sound of every click i make on the phone is delayed by around 1 second which makes it really annoying
I came across the Jaybird bluebuds X and the review about them seem to be great in terms of sound quality and comfort, but I am not sure whether they also have the issue of the sound delay.
Has anyone used the bluebuds X and can confirm whether there is delay or not, or even if someone can recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset that has no delay
Thanks

I have had the BBX's for roughly 2 weeks now. I have only noticed a delay when my phone is "sleeping." Otherwise this is the best set of bud headphones I've owned since I bought my Soul SL99 last year. Now to get these foam earplugs everyone is talking about to finalize the fit!
Wow. I just checked for these on Amazon.co.uk and apparently JayBird think that $=£, as they're trying to sell them for £170 (almost $260) compared to their $169 price in the US :/
do you still need those little "wings" on the earpiece once you install the Comply buds?
Hi could anyone suggest best In-ears sub $100 (Rs 5000).
I have my eye on Klipsch S4A (II) but don't know if they will work with XZ. Can anyone confirm this??

I can confirm that it WONT work on our current OS, it might when we have 4.2.2. Bluetooth devices have working controls.

do you even have slightest idea what I'm talking about???
I m not talking about bluetooth headphones. These are In Ear wired headphones. I have my doubts about them working as sony has changed its orientation of headphones earlier sony headphones dont work with XZ.
Please don't reply if u don't understand.

I guess you're the one that doesn't understand.
I was talking about the controls, they won't work (beside volume), that's why I referred to Bluetooth devices. When you have a Bluetooth device all the controls will work as supposed.
Ask yourself why they wouldn't work on the Sony? Never heard of a pair of headphones not working on a specific device, they would only cut their own fingers....
Guess you don't really need help.

Klipsch announced new "Image S4-II" update version of previous S4.
S4-II present flat cabling for added strength and tangle
resistance, a more streamlined shape and overall improvements in product durability. S4-II model produces the same award-winning sound signature through an 8.5 mm dual-magnet
micro-speaker. This technology covers a wide frequency range and delivers dynamic detail for the
most strikingly realistic sound reproductions of music libraries
More info:
My feedback:
If you have any good experience with the sound and your want quality for a good amount (120$), I would definitely recommend it THIS
Regards.
Rock it sounds R50 are the best bang for buck you are going to get at that price point, they are a little bit higher (120$) but well worth the price.http://rockitsounds.com/shop/product/?prod_id=16

I am not concerned about controls. Only want to know would they be compatible.
I tried my old Xperia Arc Headphones with Z and error was showing not compatible. I recall reading somewhere that this is due to polarity/charge.
op..also check out the soundMAGIC E10m.. About half the price of the s4aii but from reviews sounds alot better
It has also won awards from what!hifi

still loving my RHA 450i affordable and superb sound, although the volume buttons don't work as they are designed for those stupid fruitphones.
Mic is very good, and the button controls poweramp perfectly well,
Come with a 3 year warranty, and have survived a night outside in the pouring rain when I dropped them on my driveway
I have these in-ears and the sound really nice,and are very cheap..and when i say good sound..believe me it is, and for the price you could try.

offcourse i know the are replica..but the question from the topicstarter is
about good in ears that works with the xperia z.
He never told us that that should be original.
Thats why i told him about these one's.
Good sound cheap en the flatcable prevent them from going into a mess
afther putting them in your pocket.
that's all...but hee .....never mind. i rest my case.
