I don't know about you guys but I haven't been giving my phone ANY attention after I picked up my N7. I love this thing. I have the galaxy s2 skyrocket and it doesn't even compare to the joy I get out of my tablet.

it does now cuz jelly bean is now on it(;
I do, because I also got a SGS3 within days of it, making it 2 new devices. LOL
Nope lol.
And after a good while on my Tablet, When i pickup my SG2 if feels like its shrank lol.
I start to struggle to look at the screen and text lol
My Trophy, about the same as always ( I love my phone & the fact it runs WP7!) I have though dug out my old HD2 & flashed ICS to its nand memory as I have very little experience with Android and am loving it, I love being able to mess around with settings & tweak stuff, is making me more excited to get my Nexus 7 with all its quad core JellyBean goodness!!
Lol I know I have to squint when I look at the phone now. Also my s2 doesn't have HD screen so it looks like crap next to my N7. I love this thing.

Ics on my RAZR feels like a joke after using the nexus.
I have because I got my gnex the same day I got my 7. Lol

Isn't the nexus the same as the N7? Pretty much I mean. I heard somewhere that its kind of like a blown up nexus running jelly bean? I never played around with a galaxy nexus.

My phone has lasted for 3 days without charging (since I got my N7)
First time ever
Yes and praise baby Jesus for that. Before this I was constantly checking the evo lte forums for some jelly bean, or even just some aosp love. The n7 has definitely distracted me from that. Now I just pick my phone to see if I have an lte signal

Get tablet talk. Sync text to your tablet from your phone.
My phone is back to being a phone for a long time.

You all are so lucky mines supposed to come tonight or tomorrow ahhh.

I'm thinking of buying a Nexus 7, but I'm seeing tons of people posting with all kinds of screen problems. I'm wondering, is everyone having issues, or is it just the people who are having issues that are posting? So if you have a Nexus 7 and it is working great, I would love to hear from you.
No problems what so ever, ordered 27 June, got it yesterday and I've been through two full battery charges and rooted and its still running like a champ. Don't hesitate!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Mines great! It's probably just a 'nexus' of complaints here! Where else would you talk about it, that's making it look worse than it is perhaps.
Only problem I had was that it turned up TOTALLY empty of charge and needed a few minutes to get past 0%. Once done, it's been working great.
No flicker
No squeaky sides
No raised glass
It works and works great.
Non-rooted(so far), standard rom. Nothing out of the usual.
I dont! absolutely love the device!

As per any new device, there are bound to be ones that make it thru production with a problem or two. Apparently screen issues have been what's the most prominent.

Works amazing for , dont hesitate.
No problems at all. My device is flawless. Great build quality on it.
Might be better if you create a poll then you will truly see most don't suffer from reported issues. It could be as simole as do you have any major hardware issues vs. Those who dont. Or are you satisfied with your nexus 7 vs. Those who arwnt. If you do, change thread title also. The complaints will always be voiced more over those who satisfied with their devices.
I'd easily recommend anyone to buy one of these ASAP.
No problems at all with mine.I am very happy with mine.Fast,looks good
And no issues with anything I have tried to do with it.
Everything is flawless here too. Highly recommended. The UI smoothness has me sold.

I've got 3 dead pixels at the very bottom trim of the screen which are only barely noticable when watching a movie with weird borders.
Not returning it because of that, still very happy.
Mine came form google play perfect expect screen Flickr which I think is a driver issue.
Some people reporting getting replacements with the same exact issue.
Hi everyone
I commute to work into the city every day.On the train I see the usual suspects iPhone/ iPad Samsung galaxy and a shed load of Kindle touches.
With Nexus selling loads why do I feel so lonely? I have yet to spot anther Nexus7 user.Have any of you spotted one yet?If so when and where?
I've seen several. A friends of mine has one. At places like chick fil a and Atlanta bread they r a frequent.
I live in Alabama though.
War Eagle.
I've never met anybody in person with a nexus anything. That's one reason why I love the nexus line. It's a lot more rare to me and not "trendy". It's not a social status symbol.
I have yet to see one too! Although every iPad user I see is interested in my awesome tablet! :laugh:

Most places are still sold out of Nexus 7 so many would-be Nexus 7 owners have not gotten theirs yet. With that said, other devices such as iPad or Kindle have been out much longer so it's not really a fair comparison either.
Someone I saw had one yesterday, and I heard someone else say to him 'wow, its like a mini ipad'
Fuuuuuuuuuuu

Downtown Boston, McDonald's. He had the 8 gb and we swapped apps. It was cool to talk to another N7 user. Although he wasn't that tech savvy... He had no idea what "landscape" and "potrait" was :-/

In my area the nexus 7 is super rare because I'm the only one who ordered one from the only gamestop in my area! Plus the rep that gave me my tab told me to stop in and tell him how it is because he wants to trade his iPad in for it!
Finally saw one on the underground in the UK last weekend no case naked nexus *tut* *tut*

Mine is naked, I have a case coming from ebay. It has a screen protector though
I have to constantly explain to just about everyone why I have a nexus 7 instead of an ipad. Not only do I like it because it runs android and is a nexus devices, but am I the only one here who thinks that ipad is too big and heavy??
I know of only 1 person other than me with a nexus 7. Poor guy was harassed over questions about his 'mini ipad'
Just needed to tell someone....

Yes just swapped up to a 32gb one. Had a 16gb version a few months now, that one had the screen lifting problem but this one is perfect!

You are not alone! I use my Nexus 7 for almost everything. Only 3 things I need now. 1. Y-cable. Will buy soon. 2. Ubuntu to get some bugs worked out. And finally.....3. The ability to dual boot. Ubuntu, installed next to Android? Hell yes. Thank you sir, may I have another?

:good: and I even like it with 4.2!
I love mine too! 4.2 not so much until Devs catch up and we have Recoveries that play nice with it. It also broke ability to use USB storage devices with it. I got it from playstore when it came out. It arrived the 2nd day after. 1st thing was unlock and root. Ran stock 4.1.2 until I put on a custom 4.2 (plain vanilla )rom. I previously had Galaxy Tab 7.0+. Very expensive and I thought I was getting the best. It was OK, but my 32Gb N7 beats it six ways from Sunday in smoothness, reliability. Also the GT7 had a proprietary charge and data port/cable. It was USB but you needed a converter cable for lots of stuff. The N7 is great out of the box but awesome!! when unlocked, rooted and rom'ed. Everything just seems to work better. Movies, music, email, calendar, notes, to do's games, You name it. Now if I could just make calls on it...oh, wait, with Google (Voice?) you can I am told!
Problem with 4.2 is it messed up the sd card file partitions so that I can no longer make Nandroid back-ups. I sure it will be fixed in a few days. Meanwhile, I am enjoying the crap out of this thing.
Loved it since I bought it. Eyeing the N73G for the holidays, then the Mrs. Gets the 16.

I feel exactly the same, not perfect but it's by far the most practical gadget I've ever owned. The iPad and S3 hadly get a look in these days.

Loving my nexus 7 as well. As a apple fanboy the nexus really has impressed me. The only thing I don't love about the nexus (android problem i guess) is that none of the browsers can compare to the Safari-browser found in the ios echo system. Sluggish scrolling, accidently clicking links when scrolling never happens to me on my ipad or iphone. Google, tweak the chrome-browser and my apple fanboy days might be over.
http://m.gizmodo.com/5973469/what-its-like-to-have-a-nexus-7-as-a-phone
An idea I've been kicking around for a couple months now. I finally accepted that I won't ever own a computer or laptop. I despise my Note 2, the only thing keeping me on it is LTE, obviously the 7 lacks. But a larger screen is something I keep wanting more and more. The only other problem is the worrying dependency on GV in order to make it work.
Very nice article.
I don't think the Nexus 7 will fit in my pockets, and also, Google Voice isn't free in my country and isn't really supported, so I prefer my regular Galaxy Ace for the outside, and the Nexus 7 for the inside .
I use mine as a wifi phone with the groove IP app, when my phone goes dead.
