[Q] Is the Nexus 7 worth to buy now?

[Billchen0014]

I am considering buying a nexus 7 16gb, is it worth the 314 AUD price tag? What do you guys think from your experiences? Thanks

Yes ! It is an amazing tablet and the first one born with Android Jelly Bean 4.1. It has a really powerful processor (NVidia Tegra 3 Quad Core (x4) 1.3GHz.). The size is really awesome, you can hold it fine with one hand. It is really smooth and fast. Worth to buy

It's absolutely worth it, get it right now. This device really is great, you've waited too long already.

Does it justify the $314 pricetag? I hope so. It's hard to find in retail stores these days.

I love my Nexus 7. I bought it even knowing that a ipad mini is rumored to come out next month.
If you love your Nexus S's Android OS, the Nexus 7 will not disappoint.

You really cannot go wrong with the price. I mean 250$ is dirt cheap. Especially for a Tegra 3 and 1GB of RAM. Really enjoying mine so far and I have an iPhone 4S and new iPad as well. Android has a special place in my heart for tinkering and this tablet is totally fulfilling that niche .

Why 314? It is 250$ for 16GB and 199$ for 8GB. You mean 314 because you would buy it from google and there is taxes + 20$ for shipping?

He's in AUD instead of US currency for one thing but I dunno the conversion rate

Totally worth it, I have a feeling development has only just started I have never owned a nexus device previous to this

It has replaced my phone for everything but calls and texts, other than when I don't have it of course
I think the size is perfect as the ipad IMO is too big and heavy, 7 inch is perfect size

I bought mine on release weekend at jbhifi for $317, best choice

Buy it from a store so if you have problems, you can take it back like I did.

Although the conversion rate is similar, when its in Australia the taxes are waay higher and everything costs more.

And the tegra 3 processor has so called 12 core GPU , though I never knew what's it frequency speed, 1.3 Ghz ?

416mhz (but a lot of custom kernels overclock to 520)

OP: we can't really answer that (at least, not without information on your preferences). You should youtube the n7 in action and see if it seems to fit your needs.

The nexus 7 is very worth it. Your might have to return it a couple times if it has the defects like screen lift, light bleed, etc.

I doubt the iPad mini will be around 300 dollars, as the ipod touch costs 300 and is less than half the size.

If i were you, I would buy it!

I bought one yesterday and it's well worth it. Mine was built in August and doesn't seem to have any screen or multi-touch problems that others do.

Tapatalk made me send this.

I've had mine for a while and even with a little screen lift on the left hand side, I'd buy it all over again.

If you have the option, purchase an extended warranty that covers screen damage. That extra insurrance never hurt.

I'd buy that for any tab I'd purchase.

Buy it...you won't regret it. Your significant other may though. I think my girl is going to break mine if I don't put it down. Lolzzz

This tablet is absolutely awesome! It's even more awesome if you use the Franco kernel and Paranoid Android! BUY IT! I'm really happy with my device! :good:

I got the 16gb at release and the 32 as soon as it was out and i haven't gone a day without it since. Get one.

Its always been worth it.

 

[skribbler86]

All you have to do is compare its price, processor and memory with other tablets out there and you will find your answer
