[Q] How to tell which gen? - Nexus 7 General

Hi, I just got a Nexus7 from my wife for my BDay, and am very happy with it. She bought it at Best Buy, so I was just wondering if there is an obvious way to tell which generation it is. I heard that there is a first & second gen.
It has Android 4.3, same as my Galaxy Nexus.
- Thanks, Kevin

I believe if it came with 4.3 its 2nd generation. 1st came with 4.1

5th step, don't announce in a dev thread that you can't wait to download said rom and will report back. No one really cares.

6th step: Get your useless thread closed.

Do you guys think this is valid??

The nexus 5??

Fake, notice the bad photoshop at the ends of the phone.

Fake or not, that's one smart looking handset.

Even though this is a massive photoshop I just want to remind people about the Galaxy S3 rumours. There was a leaked pic which had uneven lines, and the phone wasn't even symmetrical - yet when it was actually announced it actually WAS the galaxy s3, despite the shady photos.
So keep an eye out for 'real' pictures, THEN post it here.
Look at dat specs!!!

This same exact thing was posted yesterday - and locked. Not a credible site

Even if it were a real phone it would be too expensive to be a nexus phone IMO.
Those specs are too good if it's coming out any time soon lol
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
do u even specs
Galaxy s4 would have ben awsome if it was that design, love it
I read an article about this picture yesterday somewhere that claimed it was a possible prototype for the bid to be the next nexus this fall but I think it is to premature to know what will be in the next nexus phone.

16mp camera??? Really? nexus devices always get lower mp cameras. Google has also released a statement that the camera in the next nexus will be a huge leap forward in quality....but its quality should not be measured in megapixels. (ie: it'll probably be 8 or 12mp, but with a huge improvement in lens and image processing technology.) I'm personally hoping this means a possible a macros setting in the stock app!!
Dem specs (datass look)
That is a sexy phone, long live the nexus

Looks good but 5.2 inch isn't what Google aim for. Probably 5 inch max

It's just a rumor. Let's wait for some more specific infrormation.

Nexus 7 built quality

Hey guys! I have noticed that when I press at sides of my nexus with my fingers, color on screen fluctuates (changes). I've checked at locka computer store and displayed model has same issue. For example, my friends galaxy tab 2 10' don't have this problem. I always care about quality and this irritates me. How is it in Your nexus, does every one have the same issue ?

My 7 has no quality issues. No color problems arise by pressing on the screen (or course I don't smash it with extreme force), no screen lift, creaks, rattles or groans. For $250 I couldn't be happier. I've even dropped it (albeit never a severe high drop onto extremely hard surfaces) with no scratches or damage.

How hard are you pressing, really?
It took decent force for me to see any change in my screen, far more force then it would receive during normal use or under game play.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Worst is left side. Normal finger pressure or really any pressure couse black to change. Really frustrating.

Thoughts on Nemesis?

In case you haven't heard about it, look at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcpyavQSvMk
In my opinion I think its going to either be a new CyanogenMod experience or a social network/social app in some sort of way. So, thoughts?

Maybe the're changing their ROM name you'll never know what the team has up their sleeves
But "a new challenger"? That got me there
What could it mean ?
A new phone,ROM,OS
Rumors say that KLP is going for more a CynogenMod style
That could be it maybe

does it need to have it? it is for the n5
It looks like Spigen accidentally changed the title and picture for a nexus 4 protector. Or it could be a cruel joke. I just searched "nexus 4 spigen screen protector" on amazon and that was one of the first few results

And The camera is on the left.. Speaker port is thinner, Screen appears bigger also. Hmmm...

If you find it on amazon and zoom in you can faintly see where the screen ends and how thin the bezel is on the left side

This was already discussed here weeks ago. It is not unusual for accessories makers to put these listings up on Amazon. Most likely they won't even start producing them until they get a Nexus 5 in their hands. They just try to get the early press and pre-orders before others get their products out.
