I heard it was asus' way of trying to fix the screen lift.
But coking from someone who bought the 16gb model, I would recommend 32gb. You only get around 13 usable gb with the 16 version

Its not a fault it was a change in the manufacturing process. If you buy a 16gb model the screws will be missing too. But only you can answer the question about which model you should get. I would personally go for the 32gb since it has the most space but if you just use your tablet for internet browsing and social media then a 16gb model would be ok,

Best buy selling 32GB model

Didn't know if anyone knew this buy Best Buy is selling the TF300 for 399.99. Just 20 more dollars for double the memory. So if you want a great tablet I would swoop in BB to get one.

Yeah I didn't think they had it either but I went there yesterday to buy the 16GB model and they had the card stock for a 32GB model. I asked the guy and he said yes, I was stoked. He at first grabbed me the 16GB model so I had to do an exchange for the 32GB model. When I get home I'll shoot a picture of my receipt

This makes me sad, i checked with my local Best Buy earlier today and they still don't have the 32gb version. Not the end of the world for me, just figured if i could easily swap it for the 32 i'd be all for it.

well for me I was always checking best buy for it, always checking the site and going in like every 3 days. I was in a rock in a hard place to either wait or just grab it from amazon. My wife keeps making fun of me because I am an instant gratification type of guy and I just want it now and not wait for shipping from Amazon. If I were you I would check up on it as much as I can because you have 30 days to exchange or if your a premiere silver member you have 45-60 days to exchange it, cant remember which one. Im sure they will have it advertise in the Sunday weekly ad.

Yep. In the ads, and Its now available at every store near me. Contemplating the exchange. Broke right now. In all reality Ive never even come close to running out of memory, with the exception of my Evo 3D due to only having 1gb internal.
On my 300 I have 16gb internal, and a 16gb sd card. With 151 apps and games I have 8.79gb internal, and 11.45gb external left.
On my Galaxy Tab 7.7 I have 16gb internal, and a 16gb sd card. With 137 apps and games. Still have 6.27gb internal and 10.01 external left.
Although only $20 for double the memory is awesome, I dont want to risk any issues with the new one. (Light bleed, etc). The one I have now is perfect. Besides with my luck Ive had lately with Best Buy and tablets Id probably get a bad one.

For those of you that exchanged for the 32gb is the color the same dark blue? Or is it the lighter blue that some people got?

Should I buy the Nexus 10 32 or 16 GB?

I was going to buy the Nexus 10 32gb for my birthday but when I went to the Play Store, they were sold out . The 16gb models on the other hand are still in stock. I think it will probably be a while until the 32gb N10's get in stock. I intend on rooting my nexus too. So should I wait for the Nexus 10 32gb or just get the 16gb?

Are you a gamer or movie watcher? If yes then get the 32.
If not go with the 16.

16 gb to a 32 gb logic board

If I exchange logic boards will it still work? I want to upgrade my memory and figured the memory is probably located somewhere on the logic board.

Anyone?

The logic boards are different and there have been changes made between the different revisions of the N7. You wouldn't be able to simply swap it out. There are schematics and tear-down pics of the 16GB, 32GB, and 32GB 3G version of the N7 that you can take a look at. Ultimately, your best bet would be to sell your 16GB so you can buy the 32GB.

(Q) motherboard swap 8gb vs 16gb

I just bought an 8gb n4. Previously I had a 16gb n4 that I now have the motherboard to leftover. Long story. Can I simply swap the old motherboard in my phone to upgrade back up to a 16gb again? Will there be any software/hardware problems? Imei? Root? Phone looking for 8gb but seeing 16gb? Long story short, is it as simple as a hardware swap...factory reset...re-flash favorite Rom...?

It will change the imei obviously. You can swap it, check YouTube for guides.

It was, then it sold out. If you want a Nexus 4 now, hit up Swappa, Craigslist, or eBay.

Slightly late! I grabbed a 16GB one. Ended up with a 5GB model. I think they were running out of memory so they just grabbed what they could and stuck it in mine and i got short shipped. Thankfully they refunded me a little bit when i called and reported it.

I think you mean 8gb model 5gb is how much you actually have usable system takes some.
Like how the 16gb has 12.92gb in total system has taken some.

Thats what i thought too. Total space available, 5.67. Regardless of the ROM i got installed. They seemed to think it was a bit low even for an 8GB model though.

Hmm I'd have said it's about right for the 8gb model.
Glad when I ordered a 16gb model I got the right one. The 8gb would have drove me up the wall.

So they basically did you a favor.
16 is the sweet spot for me keep some albums offline and I'm down to 6gb free now. I also bought it when the price dropped.
And the ROM would never make a difference. Your not changing the partition sizes. For example I'm on purity ROM and have 800mb free in system partition.
