Just wondering what you all got rid of or traded in to get your n10.
I was just about to pull the trigger on an Asus Infinity but decided to go with the n10.

Didn't have to sell anything.. This will be my first tablet. I just bought the Nexus 10 on Sunday, Hopefully I get it soon with no problems, because many people seem to have issues with it. How is yours?
I sold this (minus the 500GB HDD and 8GB flash drive) for $183; the 500GB HDD for $60, and a 3TB HDD for $130, a Radeon HD 5570 GPU for $50, and some other money from somewhere else (I forget) to buy a Nexus 4 originally, but since I also had enough for a Nexus 10 at the time, and the Nexus 4 was out of stock, and since I realized I couldn't keep up with a monthly phone plan most likely, and that I wanted a bigger screen for gaming purposes, and the Nexus 10 has better specs, I decided to go with the Nexus 10
TLDR: I sold a Nexus 7 + other stuff and decided to get a Nexus 10 with the funds I got
I returned an infinity and waited for this. Soooo much happier with nexus 10.

I was just about to buy an infinity but after reading the forum nightmare stories I decided to go with the n10. I used it a bit and it was nice but laggy web browsing and other minor issues.

Also returned the infinity for this tablet.
I sold my Infinity for a hundred dollar loss just to get the Nexus 10

I sold my Xoom for $200 in order to get my N10

I sold my iPad 3 to purchase this. Literally sold the iPad for $450 and bought this for $400. And good riddance to that toy. I bought the iPad when it was hands down the best tablet available. Now with the Nexus 10, I feel like the Nexus beats it in every single category. The screen is more beautiful, its thinner, lighter, easier to hold and grip, a more capable OS. It feels more polished and I can't wait to start romming it once the roms start to come out of Alpha/Beta releases Gotta love devs, always making devices more incredible as the months go on.
I've made the jump from an iPad1 and am stunned by the improvements in screen and performance.
Sold my Xoom WiFi 32gb model after getting the Nexus 10 and configuring the homescreens near the same. Sold it to a friend who is replacing his wife's Kindle Fire with the Xoom.
Sold my Acer A500 32GB and got the N10 16GB (don't need the extra storage). Couldn't be happier.
Sold my Gtab 10.1 and got an Infinity (it's crap), returned it for an iPad 3, returned it for a Note 10.1 (nice tablet), and finally returned it for the N10.
BestBuy Premier Silver let me leave a string of open box discounts in my wake since July to get to this tablet. I love it, but have to warranty swap it due to a WiFi issue.

Returned my Note 10.1 for the Infinity. Exchanged the Infinity more than a couple times. Returned the infinity the day the N10 was officially announced.
Didn't sell anything but going to give the gf my iPad 3. Its a nice device for what it is but the whole ios ecosystem is just boring to me. I don't know how people are saying the nexus 10 has a better screen....the iPad can be brighter, represents colors better and has much better viewing angles. Hardware wise that's the only thing I'm going to miss and it's certainly not enough to hold on to it.
sold my n7 didn't want to because it was a great device and fine form factor but couldn't justify having both on my budget with the holidays coming up.
Sold my Nexus 7. Couldn't be happier and I couldn't ever see myself going back to a 7" tablet.
Also sold my N7. Too small for my aging eyes.
Actually I won an Asus Transformer Pad 300 from Android Police, and sold that unopened to get the N10. Right now I'm trying to sell the Acer a500 I was using before my nexus 10 got here.

Hi guys. I have a Nexus S and I already posted this in the NS forums.
Now... I've been wanting a Nexus 7 ever since it was announced, but only now that I can afford one.
But now I see I've got a chance to buy a 16gb Nexus 4.
I was planning on continuing to use my Nexus S as it totally rocks running CM10.1 and using the Nexus 7 for browsing the web around the house and playing games.
If I would buy the Nexus 4 I would obviously not afford the Nexus 7 for a while. But the Nexus 4 is such a sexy piece of hardware and it has a much better camera than the Nexus S and I've got a baby on the way and I would love to be able to take good pictures and HD videos of my little ones.
Help me decide!
Nexus 7 + Nexus S
Or
Nexus 4 only
I´ll tell you one thing that might sway your opinion a bit...
I am in Iceland... A 16gb Nexus 4 is 99.900 ISK = 775 USD. A 32gb Nexus 7 is 59.900 ISK = 465 USD.
:crying:

I would say keep the S and get the 7.
If you are happy with the phone you have now, then keep it and enjoy the larger screen of the 7 for video/pics/etc...
And you will have some money left over to put towards what ever phone Google comes out with next.
Danggg that's expensive
I would keep your current phone, buy the 7, and with the cash saved buy a nice little camera. No phone can replace a camera. You'll have it all. Good luck with the kid. I got two and they ain't cheap..
I just* came from a Nexus S yesterday. I say get the Nexus 4. It is son totally worth it dude....
Crap and I thought that getting the nexus 4 from t-Mobile was expensive.
I would strongly encourage against getting the nexus 4. Instead get the nexus 7. You can still take pictures with the nexus 7 and the nexus s. Your new baby will also be able to use the device to play once he or she is old enough

Wow, didn't expect the Nexus 4 forum to be so biased towards the N7. I might just post this in the N7 forum to get all points of view.
Sent from my Nexus S
For 770$, don't get the nexus 4.
A nexus s and a nexus 7 would be much better value for money.
If it was priced normally, get the n4

Not biased, we are just reasonable. If the N4 would've been the price it normally is, I would've gotten it. But in your situation, getting the N7 is simply the most logical thing to do.

I couldn't recommend getting Nexus 4. It's the most beautiful phone ever made but bad battery and horrible camera destroy the whole experience unfortunately.

If it's the most beautiful phone ever made, what do you recommend?
By the way, the battery isn't that bad. You just have to figure out what causes it. Also, the camera isn't horrible. It's above average for a smartphone. Certainly not the best, but it's also not the worst.

If money isn't the issue then Note 2 is the king of the hill. I can fully recommend that. Battery is super good out from the box and camera in top 3 of the smart phones.
I really want to love my Nexus but my heart breaking every time how I see the battery go down and when I take a picture in a bit dark conditions.
Then on the other hand Note 2 which is plastic and kinda ugly and would be great to hate it just always surprises me positively.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've looked into this now and I see that it wouldn't save me a lot of money due to Icelandic import taxes. Maybe about 50 GBP.

Isn't Iceland part of the EU? I have the same problem as you, only I live in the Netherlands. I have the option to buy it from the UK or German playstore, and Germany also sells it elsewhere for a higher price.
You could get it from Canada/USA (when it's available again, or maybe via ebay) and hope you don't have to pay import duty. If you have it sent to you as a gift (like a personal package from family) I believe you don't have to pay taxes. At least that's how it works here. It's a bit of a grey area but I'm not going to pay 100-200 euro more for a phone that's supposed to be cheap.

I thought Iceland was a EEA country, no? I mean they don't ask for visa... Your currency is Euros right?
Just buy it on ebay.co.uk but don't forget to ask the seller if he could send it as a gift. (If you really want to make sure.)

A lot of ebay sellers don't want to do this though. And besides, finding a cheap seller on ebay can be difficult. You have to bid on almost every single one, and that can drive up the price really fast.
i'm planning to buy nexus 4,
but i'm confused if there's a nexus 4 2nd generation like nexus 7 and nexus 7 2nd gen?
and can you give best reason why did you buy nexus 4?
thanks
Ehmmm... Nexus 5?

the 2nd gen nexus 4 is called nexus 5
Reasons : best device at that time with best cpu, best ram etc, at the cheapest price with perfect screen size and res, latest updates and lots of development.
Most of the above reasons are still true
No, the Nexus 4 doesn't have any "generations" so to speak.
But there are a few different revisions. Like Rev 10, 11, 12, 13.
Look here:

But they're all the same phone really, just minor improvements.

oh, thanks for your info, that's all hehe.. im glad to hear it
I got it two weeks ago because my iPhone broke a month back and I needed a phone that would be cheap. Lo and behold I found mine mint condition for only 240$ on craigslist. Before my iPhone I used an inspire 4g which was pretty good. The hardware on this is pretty good for only 230$. The nexus 5 looked pretty good but seemed to have a lot of launch issues and it didn't have any features I'd need to pay the extra money for. That said I'll probably get a nexus 5 when it becomes cheaper too.

that's why I choose N4. here in philippines have a big price difference in N4 and N5
Hi guys/gals,
I can pick up n7 for £179 but is it worth waiting for n8?
I know price will be 300 or thereabouts as screen increase but would the extra cpu and ram and maybe resolution make it worth it for 1" bigger screen?
Thanks
There is no reason for waiting for N8,since it's just a rumour d no official word on it. A new Nexus device probably launch with a new version of android & expect it around June or July. So waiting for N8 may be worthless.
Still Nexus 7 2013 is an awesome device & you will love your new purchase. E179 is an awesome deal & you should definitely grab it
Nexus 7 (2013) with stock AOSP ROM(4.4.2), FRANCO Kernel (r12)

More than the extra inch in screen size, something worth the wait could be the possible change in the aspect ratio if they will move from 16:10 to 3:2. However this change isn't confirmed and so it simply depends on your current needs. July is 5 months away from now. If the market price will be higher than all the previous launch prices for N tablets, the SoC could even be something nice and new like the Snapdragon 805 and so worth the wait.
Yeah SoC upgrade will be worth it.
My only not sure area is as I already have a Asus TF300T (yes it is a slow hog) I can still use it for videos etc while at home fine. I just need something portable for trains so dont want to spend over £200 on that as already have 10" tab. So the fact that the N8 if made wont be same price as N7 at launch I doubt I can spend that much.
Thanks guys
Only thing that would be worth the wait in my opinion is if:
# they add a digitizer for pen input
# possibly a more efficient battery (not necessarily bigger)
# 64 bit chip with the necessary RAM upgrades to see the actual boosts in performance
The Nexus 7 2013 still flies as it is. I doubt there will be pen input and 64 bit tablets at the moment still only see around 2 GB of RAM.
I'd go with the Nexus 7. Just my 2 ¢ents!

I bought it
£179 for a N7 is good I think. Doubt N8 will drop to that price less then a year of release!
If the next nexus is made by ASUS, I'm not buying it. I'll switch to LG or Samsung. Both my nexus 7s from 2012 and 2013 have had frustrating touch screen issues that eventually make me not want to use them for anything but reading books.
Which one u bought. ?16g?

I personally love the form factor of the N7. I use this on the go sometimes. The form factor is small enough I slip this into pocket and use it like I would a phablet(minus calling and SMS) these days hangouts and Facebook suffice. I tether my N5 to this bad boy since I have free 2.5 of tethering

I was planning on waiting but I got such a good deal on a Nexus 7 32gb last week that I couldn't pass it up ($115 for a open box 32gb one). I might consider switching to the Nexus 8 if the specs are nice enough though.

I would imagine that a gently used 32gb Nexus 7 2nd gen would sell for more than $100 even after the Nexus 8 is announced.
But anyways, yes you make a valid point and that is what I was suggesting in my prior post. Very interested to see nexus 8 though. I will probably be content though.
Agreed. After returning N7 fhd in July, got a much better one in Nov. but still interested in the N8 if, indeed, one comes to fruition.

I was thinking the same thing but I'm just going to get a nexus 7 2013 now and worry about the 8 later if it is indeed a beast in specs and good price point.

Nexus 8 interesting but depend who will manufacturing this Model, I had enough with sh*t Asus.
I was thinking about the same thing but grabbed the Nexus 7. I really like it a lot and it's amazing how much faster it is than the previous Nexus 7. I only got the 16GB but it's more than enough for me.

Still just a rumor, but most expect a new N10 and a N8.
I went to buy the Nexus 7 today on the site and it was gone. Hmm so I called and the rep told me that is was no longer in the system. Said it looks like that will not carry it. So the only Android tablet the have now is the Samsung Galaxy tab 3 eww.
They will have the Note 10.1 2014 soon and likely the new nexus a bit further out.

silver lining?
I noticed that the other day - I was struggling to keep myself from buying one, since the new Nexus tablet is probably arriving in a month or 2. I'm actually sort of glad T-mobile made the decision for me.
I was really considering getting one from them. Then I saw a like new used one for 210. Score!
Well if a new nexus 10" comes out with LTE, I know I will be selling my unlocked 7"
