• Nice tablet with affordable price
  Abhishek Rana (May 8, 2014) on Gadgets 360
  I have gifted this tablet to my sister. Pros: Easily rooted, unlocked bootloader. Owing to high storage, can be used to do multiboot with other ROMs. Great Developer support, can use Moto G/X F2FS on your tablets to prevent lag even when storage gets full. The Processor overclocks well, and can handle all the applications of today. Multi-Window apps makes good use of the 7" screen, specially after using Immersive mode Xposed module. The resolution is great as well although its not Full HD, Crisp screen and good colors. Gorilla glass is icing on cake. Cons: The GPU might be slow compared to current standards and High-end games might lag. I have played subway surfer and temple run and there was no lag. Front camera is definitely not for snapping pictures. The tablet feels so smooth after some tweaks that it seems too good to be true. Applications like Seeder and GLTools will allow the tablet to remain smooth and enable high end games to run without lag.

• The original Nexus 7, still worth it
  Abhishek Balaji (May 2, 2014) on Gadgets 360
  The original nexus 7 really stirred up the tablet segment. It was the first tablet that people actually wanted to buy as an add-on device to the various laptops and ultrabooks. It is made by Google in partnership with Asus. This means a lot of things; first up, when the software vendors work with the hardware manufacturers, it creates an amazing experience. The Android devices segment is largely diverse, with Google finding it hard to keep up with every device that has android in it. And since Android is open source, any hardware manufacturer can slap android on their devices. While this is a good sign, it also creates a market where you find a lot of devices that are very similar and at the same price point, making it extremely hard to pick a good one. So, Google is trying to go the Apple way here by having control over the hardware and the software; it creates a device, where the Android System can be customized to fit the hardware, instead of slapping a one-size-fits-all software. Also, since Google is directly involved in this, it means that you?ll get all the latest android updates as quickly as they turn up. Coming to the device itself, it was lauded to be one of the best Android tablets ever. It started off at a nifty price bracket of $200-$349. The price significantly dropped to $169 after the launch of the 2013 version. Hardware The Nexus 7 packs in a Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core processor, clocked at 1.3 GHz, coupled with 1 GB of RAM and storage options ranging from 16GB-32GB. It has WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC and an optional HSPA+ radio, which would set you back by a few more dollars. Google released the Nexus 7 in a 8GB and 16GB configuration at launch, but quickly revised it to a 16GB and 32GB variants at no extra costs. It has a front camera, which is good for all your selfies and video calls on Skype or Hangouts. The absence of a rear camera, is no deal breaker; At this price, you should be glad for the configuration that you are getting. What?s completely absent is the option to add additional storage. The device does not feature any kind of expandable memory, which is kinda sad, since it would have made this a great all round device. The lack of expandable storage means, you need to invest in some online content provider and a good Mobile Hotspot or a WiFi connection, certainly not something nice in India, where internet connectivity is still bad. This is the same reason why Amazon?s Kindle Fire HD is still biting dust in warehouses. The Kindle Fire HD is a glorified storefront for Amazon. The Nexus 7 comes with a 4325 mAh battery which practically should be enough for a couple of days with moderate gaming, reading documents, checking social media accounts, watching videos and listening to music. Multimedia lovers might want to sit this device out. Software The device runs the purest form of Android possible. Its milk directly from the cow, which means that there is absolutely no bloatware. Nothing to slow down the device. Imagine

• Best budget device for gaming and entertainment thirst maniac.
  Venkatesh Mukhopadhyay (May 25, 2014) on Gadgets 360
  This tablet was launched in year 2012.As it is not that modern a gadget but it is still giving a tough competition to all the budget oriented tablets.As the device is from Google it has the latest android platform running in it and that too in very stock version giving you a pure android experience. Look and Display:- it got a HD resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels ,OGS solution as well giving it a very good look. It is a bit heavy to handle but you will not notice it much. It got a 1.2 mp front facing camera which can do HD video calling and also can be use for photo capturing and video recording using third party app. Performance:-As it got a Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset ,a quadcore clocked at 1.2 GHz and an GeForce GPU any HD game runs like piece of cake. but after long gaming it starts to heat a little bit. pors:- Quality look and feel cons:- limited storage Great display colors in display a little bit wasted-out Solid performance no back camera Killer price heats after long gaming. those who has a budget issue but wants a premium tablet with good performance and speed should go for this tablet.
