Hey XDA community, I've been coming and going alot lately but I got tons of headaches off this so i thought let's see what you guys think,
I was offered a free ipad 3 from my brother, against getting a N7 from my out pocket, I has an ipod 4g and HTC explorer, so am not a fan or a
hater for any of those platforms actually I love them both equally plus, they are almost identical when it comes to apps availabilty, I know the ipad
might have a slight edge in frames in that area, now onto the most important part, I'll use it mainly for ebooks reading as am studying Comp.
Science and am a gamer web browsing .. ofc ! ( again no hate for the 7-in screen ) and please don't point to the "issues massacre" that's going on
about the N7 althought RMA is not an option for me if anything wrong goes on ...
long post, sry
What's with the crazy font and centering? Makes your post difficult to read.
Get the nexus 7. Compared to the iPad, n7 is just more convenient to hold and type in terms of weight and size and more portable. The size is good enough for reading also at least for me.

Can you get both?
If in your position I would probably try and decide which size device would suit me better.... The bigger iPad is less portable and harder to use as a regular e-reader, but might be better for browsing and textbooks with diagrams and pictures.. The Nexus is more portable and a great all rounder (I am doing an IT degree and have no problems reading my textbooks.
I personally detest Apple's business practices and would never buy one of their devices, but their products are solid and you probably can't go wrong either way.

lol thought about it but I thought of an X360 right away :silly:
you've got a good point, reading text about source code might get ugly on the N7 while going back and forth ...
about the "solid" thing, I've done a jailbreak on one of these babies, and the thing got re-springing every once and a while, while the N7 actually begs you to customize it lol
I've got a tickle though .. are you experiencing any lifting or anything ? since u've got an N7

I agree as far as the size goes. I have both sizes, and I'm loving the 7" form factor. So much easier to handle when lounging around, and still big enough for my uses.

That's not a biased response at all.
@OP- I own both, and both are great devices in their own regard. The screen on the iPad is unparalleled, it has a ton of awesome games, and a bunch of great productivity apps. The Nexus 7 has the customizability, and a great form factor, plus all of Google's great cloud services. I take my N7 with me, and use the iPad at home. I think the 7" is a much better size for portability, and it's the perfect size for gaming, but unfortunately the iPad just trumps Android with the shear number of high quality games available. The N7 is also a better size for reading too. If it comes down to getting an iPad 3 for free or actually buying the N7, then I would take the iPad no question. If you were going to have to spring for either, then it would be a toss up and I would lean towards the N7. If I was in your shoes though, I would take the free iPad and buy an N7
Screw it.. am getting this freebie, then I'll re-think about this whole thing WHY THE HELL SHOULD I SAY NO TO A FREE IPAD !!

If you need GPS then the iPad3 is useless if it's the WIFI only version since it doesn't have GPS. Take the free iPad3, sell it and buy two Nexus 7's.
I know for me personally, the ipad is too big. I like the 7 inch form factor, and the nexus 7 is designed to for portability and convenience. Just depends what your looking for I suppose. Honestly I'm not sure why anyone needs a bigger tablet but that's just me.

Ironically I sold my iPad 3 earlier today.
Initially I bought the Nexus 7 in addition to the iPad but since owning it I just haven't put it down. Yes the iPad has more polished apps but the sheer power, flexibility and portability of the N7 can't be beaten. I found I simply couldn't justify keeping the iPad!

Amongst all the issues people have been having, I only have one: I can't put it down! This is more of my vision of a perfect tab, one that could replace your pc for many uses. Older android tabs couldn't do that very much because they were much too laggy. This tablet is fast and i'm loving jelly bean. Really like the new ui for the most part, if the launcher and lock screen would rotate it would be perfect. I originally complained when it didn't have the honeycomb ui, but after using that on my flyer for 6 months I can't say I miss it. Definitely don't miss bumping the back button when I type something nor do I miss how cluttered the action bar was, or how the stupid action bar never hid even when watching movies.
Also love how light it is and easy to hold, and the grippy material is nice too

I agree with you guys.This thing is much better than I expected.I have had no issues at all with mine.It does everything I need it to do very well.
I am so glad I preordered before all these threads showed up with so many complaints.I doubt if I would have purchased one otherwise and missed out on a great little tablet. Those one the fence thinKing about an N7 don't let all the complaints scare you off.You will be missing out if you do.:good:
My only complaint has nothing to do with the Nexus7 but with the slow process of apps updating for use with jelly bean.I guess that has always been the case with andriod but hopefully things will get better.
Honestly a week before i/o I was thinking about selling my flyer and pre ordering a nexus assuming the rumors were true. But then I decided to wait for it to be official, then all the complaints had me thinking it was best to wait. However it got to the point with my flyer that I was so fed up with lag I stopped using it and after a week I decided to sell the flyer. Wish I had just gone for it from the beginning, would of been able to nearly get all my money back on flyer as I only paid $200 originally, but I waited and only got a dismal $125.
I do honestly believe now that it looks worse than it is. Hardly anyone gets on here to praise the tablet but you see 20 threads with people having issues you immediately think there are more bad ones than good ones,

NO!...... it doesn't. It outright sucks balls.
Haven't you seen the posts? 28 XDA members out of projected 3 million sold say it sucks. Dont buy one or if you did, refuse shipment then express a cry baby attitude here.
mine came today and i have to say its far faster than i thought it would be. it is easily faster than the ipad i find for web browsing etc.
the cherry on top would have been the sd card slot. but then it would become unstoppable.

I have an original Asus Transformer, and I'll tell ya, after the initial love of it, I barely ended up using it. It was just too big, too heavy, and too slow. I picked up a nexus and it remedies all of these problems.... the buttery smoothness of it is exceptionally enticing. I have a feeling I'm going to use my Nexus way, way more than my TF.
LOVE this thing.
I agree. I didn't think I would like the Nexus as much as I do, I LOVE it. The smaller form factor is actually really nice and it feels better in hand then my TF101.
Few days before I get my hands on my Nexus 7 and you guys are already making me far too excited for it!!
Love it
Had a Acer A500 for the last year but since I got this Nexus i cant put it down. I had the screen separation issue but the replacement from game stop is perfect. It is more portable, lighter, faster, etc. Movies,books,web,Skype,VoIP calling, texting, and games I use this thing like 8 hours a day.
Even when the 10' comes out I will stick to the 7.
I wish it had a nice rear camera and a micro slot but whatever.

I sold my original Asus transformer because of the same reasons. As with a lot of people posting here,I cannot put this device down ! Im able to finish reading a book without having hand cramps when holding the 10.1 inch transformer. Of course you lose the big screen, but the n7 is much clearer and sharper IMO.

Was in my cart from play store. Complete impulse buy. I don't need it. I don't even know what I would use it for. I just rooted my touchpad, which will keep me happy for a few days. Have a galaxy s3, which I love. Does everything I need. I was wavering tonight between this, the g-note, and the Asus transformer i700. The last two get such mixed reviews...so I'm really leaning towards this. I think the smaller screen and cheaper price tag make it a much better choice. I just want a new toy. I'm hoping I can see one in person tomorrow.

I had an iPad 3 before getting my Nexus 7. Now my wife uses the iPad 3. I just can't stop using the Nexus 7! I find myself use my computer less and almost don't use my phone except for as a phone or when I'm out and I don't have my Nexus 7 with me.
If you don't have a family member who can take your old tablets off your hands, I'd recommend selling them or trading them in and get the Nexus 7. Assuming you get a flawless unit, you'll love the little guy.
I barely use my macbook pro anymore...even though I love it. I find the gs3 really satisfies everything I need. The bigger pads are just too big to be comfortable. If I were to get a bigger one it would probably be the iPad3, seems like the best overall package. Just hate that I can't customize it as much. I think the 7 will really be the perfect fit for me. Just hope that I get more use out of it than my HP.

WOW slim do not be such a dizzy..
As far as this Device I love the size . It seems to be the size vs the other bigger tablets . A phone or galaxy note is to small for a tablet. but to big for a phone.. I am the owner of a ACER A500 AND Love the Device. My spouse uses it on the couch now since i have my Nexus with me all the time. She is becoming and Android APP.CHIC.. I love that i can fit this in my smaller purse or a bigger clutch type bag and pack it anywhere and still look Good ..Not like im packing a Diaper bag to hold my tablet in...
I say its a personal thing rather this fits your needs or not.. If you have a bigger device you could very well think this is too small..
Look at the specs and what you want it for and make a Educated decision do NOT base buying anything on some one else saying they have and Love it.. GET WANTS Practical for you as long as there is NO APPLE ON IT.. APPLES ARE FOR WORMS ...

I own both an iPad 3 and a Nexus 7
I tend to find the Nexus is better for organisation, also for reading news. However the iPad is better for "Creating" content, or for doing actual work. Purely because it has more apps (and very good ones too)
Hopefully Android catches up and offers high quality content creation apps soon
I would recommend a Nexus tho
So I own an iPhone and an iPad and I just bought a Nexus 7 today. I'm wondering if anyone thinks this os overkill? I heard a lot of good things about the nexus and I feel like a 7 inch tablet would be easier to use and more portable, plus its a great price. I didn't get it planning on getting rid of my ipad. So is having 2 tablets overkill or are there other people out there that have 2?

Nope.. Not even close to overkill and quite normal actually. I own a Nexus S, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10.

I use my Nexus 7 as a interim replacement of sorts for my Nexus S. Nexus S is a great phone, Google has supported it well and have got my moneys worth out of it.. The problem is.. It's old and just slow.. Its been regulated to being used as just a phone. So the Nexus 7 fills in the roles that have just become unbearable to do via the phone. ie: Maps, Navigation, Music, Email writing etc etc.. It's the perfect high end day planner to grab and go with.
My Nexus 10 fits in everywhere else.. It's usually sitting with me at the PC.. When I'm doing something fullscreen like gaming, or doing an install etc I continue doing my reading, watching a movie, internet etc on the Nexus 10. Since my 40 inch LED for my PC also is used by my Wii-U my Nexus 10 is used in the same light. I can game etc on my Wii-U and keep the N10 around to keep dibs on my internet world. It's also excellent to read with in bed as the large screen and high resolution makes reading at night very easy on the eyes. My Nexus 10 is also my gaming device. There isn't a single game (except solitare) on my Nexus 7.. My Nexus 10 is packed with them.. I never have to worry about bad performance and even simple games like Angry Birds etc look phenomenal.
The difference between us being my iPhone works great so I can use it for things I could use the Nexus for. Lol it's funny that I bought it without a specific use in mind. I guess ill figure it out or return/sell it.

I have a gnex, n7 and n10. N7 goes with me everywhere and use it as a planner/notetaking. N10 stays at home. Gnex is being used as a phone (obviously) mp3 player and apps. My MacBook pro is slowly collecting more dust. My work is going to also provide me with an ipad. Lets see how that changes things.

Personally I think it would be a bit much, but it's just down to personal preference. I have a Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7. Thanks to the Nexus 7, I don't have anything at all really on my Gnex. Just music and a few daily apps. The Nexus 7 takes care of everything else, and it's also what I tinker around with for ROM's and Kernels.
So personally I would have no use for a Nexus 10, but that's just me. It would be fun to play around with for a few weeks, but I doubt I'd use it much after that. And due to it's size it would be home mostly - the N7 fits in my coat pocket which I really like about it.
I have the Nexus 4 and the 7. Plenty for me, I have considered buying a chinease iPhone clone (just to trick friends into thinking I got an iPhone) but there like 200$

You know, there's something still to be said of owning a device just for the sake of owning it.
Nothing wrong with keeping it around as a "toy" if you fail to find a particular use for it. That's assuming, of course, money isn't an issue. Far too many of us don't have that luxury these days...
yeah i think that's kinda why i wanted it. a toy to play with. i love gadgets. i love playing around with roms and such on android devices. i have to decide whether it was smart to spend the money or not though lol.

The 7 is a great developer device... If you like fooling around with things and customizing them until your heart is content, then you will love the nexus 7. I personally find no need for a tablet as big as the nexus 10 / Ipad, my laptop is faster than hell with 8 gigs of ram and a solid state drive so if i need something more than my 7 I use that. After buying the 7 I don't think I will buy any android device that doesn't say nexus on it though, it makes my galaxy s3 look outdated.
LOL, I have an iPad 3, Nexus 7, Galaxy S3, Touchpad, LG Revolution and a Droid X.
That is probably overkill, but whatever's clever!

Lol, I really just use my Nexus 7, S3 and iPad. The other ones from time to time. If you don't have a need for it, and could use the money elsewhere, I say return it.
All of these things really are toys/wants, not really necessities.
True. The fact that I feel super guilty about buying it means I probably should return it.

So really you could get rid of the iPad and be fine

Because that's what most people know. Many people get iPhone because it's kinda a status symbol of being hip or cool. Many people, that are not knowledgeable of technical specs, winner if it's better than an iPhone. Reminds me of the cartoon YouTube videos people made of interaction with a CSR at best buy when they are shown a phone that isn't an iPhone when buying a new phone.
My co-worker who loves her iPhone says that Samsungs break all the time and that Android phones constantly get viruses.
Oh did I have fun with her.

The best response to Apple fanatics is to ask them to quantify their evidence. They never can.

Because that's what most people know. Many people get iPhone because it's kinda a status symbol of being hip or cool. Many people, that are not knowledgeable of technical specs, winner if it's better than an iPhone. Reminds me of the cartoon YouTube videos people made of interaction with a CSR at best buy when they are shown a phone that isn't an iPhone when buying a new phone.

By then we might all have that octacore and a 5.5" screen! :fingers-crossed:
People got the iPhone so far up their ass, King Arthur couldn't pull it out.

How about sites that do one sided reviews.
Like cnet is starting to see the light but they used to be Apple to the core. (people who say no, they have a segment called Apple byte just about apple)
I watch their prizefights on youtube and its horrible to have three out of the four judges have iphones.
Apple used to always win but now when a finally phones like htc one and gs4 are giving them no choice but to let apple lose. But they know the new ios update is coming so it wont be for long now. Just to catch people up. Iphone 5 dominated BB z10, Htc One cleary beat iPhone 5, Galaxy S4 just barely beat Htc One(at the end they still said go out and buy htc one(because they pay apple for patents designs now)). Lets see what they do when GS4 goes against iPhone 5. Based off this Gs4 is set to win but we'll see how cnet MacGyver's this one.
Well, what else are they going to compare it to, since most people have to make 2 decisions, iPhone or Android? You compare the best Android phone to the best iPhone, this being the iPhone 5. You can certainly also compare the S4 to the HTC One, but if you leave out the iPhone, you're doing people a disservice.
