What makes the nexus 7 better than something like this:
http://www.futeko.com/products/TAB019.php
The nexus has more cores but the above is clocked higher. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Core clock speeds don't really have a huge impact on performance. At this stage, I think more people need to learn that cores+clocks =/= performance (look at AMD processors vs Intel). Either way, the Tegra 3 is one of the most powerful ARM CPU's available, and will smash any dual-core processor besides the Qualcomm S4. It doesn't even matter if this one is clocked at 1.2/1.3 instead of 1.5, the performance output it similar. Just saves more power.
On top of that, the tablet you listed has the generic 1024x600 resolution, which is a much lower ppi than the 1280x800 of the Nexus 7.
Shorter battery life, lower resolution, probably heavy and cheaply made, not google product so (probably) wont get Jelly Bean
Plus no project butter, and anything made by a non Google affiliate is lacking in the software department.
Any noob can make a rom but it probably won't work as well as cm9.

Another thing to add would be support, whether that ve from google or developers. That is a massive positive which can never be underestimated. The future is very bright for the nexus 7.

billy no name tablet vs a Google nexus there is no comparison
The screen Res and quality, battery life, quad cores, user support, build quality, mali400 is old (still fast I guess) lower clocked ram ( nexus has 1333mhz I very much doubt that tab has anything near that speed), less interest from rom makers, slower updates to the Android OS. list is endless.
edit, that cheap tabs ppi is 170 nexus is a lot higher and it has no Bluetooth or GPS
So, n7 wins in almost every way besides cost and perhaps storage.

all those extra upgrades and Google support is well worth the extra £60 or so.n7 rapes that pos

Well our snapdragon s4 is now considered "old" which is a bummer! Had to happen at some point tho I suppose. So how does this new chip compare? Does anyone know what's been improved?

The S4 Pro and the Snapdragon 600 are basically the same chip. The model number is almost identical (APQ8064 vs APQ8064T; the Plus, Prime, and 800 all have very different model numbers), same fab process at 28 nm, same L0, L1, and L2 caches, same GPU. The difference is higher clock speed (max 1.7 vs max 1.9 GHz), and potentially a faster/bigger memory channel.
By no means does the S4 Pro instantly become antiquated. Between it and the 600, they're more similar than they are different. The 800 is a different story...

I didn't think there was a big difference either between the 2, however the HTC one with the S600 is getting like 12000 on quadrant compared to the 5000 we get?
How do u explain that? I guess it could just be that quadrant isn't really optimised for our phones and is not giving accurate results.

From anandtech:
[snapdragon 600] "This is quad core Krait 300 (as opposed to 200 in MSM8960 or APQ8064) which brings a 15 percent increase in IPC as well as higher clocks (from 1.5 to 1.7 GHz), for about 20–30 percent higher overall CPU performance"
20 - 30% So significant but not huge.

I read on snapdragon s4 pro and compare it with spec of snapdragon 600 "the only" difference i got is memory technology, s4pro uses 533MHz LPDDR2 and 600 uses LPDDR3
Edit: our phone not made for benchmark, i read somewhere on google+ someone wrote about it.
Btw nexus is always behind in terms of benchmarking, but if you compare the smoothness even galaxy nexus is still so smooth.
Here is the link https://plus.google.com/u/0/101093310520661581786/posts/Q1yVmqtubG9 its exynos4 saga by one of exynos cm maintainer, but he give a reason why our benchmark not as good as optimus G.

Well because sometimes its a good way of comparing the performance of 2 phones - unfortunately not the case with a nexus I've just learned. Eyeball is very subjective, benchmarks are not (well they shouldn't be!).

lol @ benchmarks please welcome to technology soon as you bought the phone it was considered OLD !
But it is great to have both real smooth and high score benchmark
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
S4 Pro is still quick and i can see it being developed in devices for another 2+ years. i would safely assume low end tablets would also start using it when the price of these chips are reduced
Never cared about benchmarks, Even with the PCs I build. I over clock my pcs as much as possible for REAL WORLD usage and as long as they allow me to do everything I want and more and visually everything looks and feels fine and is stable, I'm good to go. Same applies with these phones. The nexus has top of the line internals and stock android allows this phone to be the way it was meant to. Now I have flashed asylum which is awesome, and I have used just about every kernel. I do notice differences in kernels “cough, matrix is the best, cough", but the differences are “seat of the pants" which is a curse in my opinion. Benchmarking stresses components, and at the price of these things why take a chance of shortening its life.

Benchmarks do tell a part of the story. You can't say that a phone that scores barely 1000 on benchmarks is as fast as a phone that scores 5000. The numbers might fluctuate a little but you get the idea. Nexus4 scores pretty good on optimised benchmarks like antutu but doesn't score good on benchmark apps that haven't been updated for two years like quadrant.

AW: Snapdragon 600 vs Snapdragon S4 Pro
So far I can see only devices with Android 4.1, or less, score pretty high with Krait cores. We havn't any other phone with 4.2 and snapdragon CPU to compare fairly.
The dual core S3 in my Xperia S doesn't feel any difference to the quad core S4 Pro in my Nexus 4 in every day use so i aint going to lose any sleep.
The number I heard thrown around was 40% faster on paper, or theoretically. Real world applications that may translate to less but still somewhat significant depending on your use case.
The kicker is it seems to still be the Adreno 320, is that higher clocked than the S4 Pro? If not it's pushing more pixels in the HTC One.
Isn't this just practically the same spec as the N4? Same CPU, same amount of RAM, GPU etc. etc.?
Yes

With a better display resolution ofc. Is that a good thing or a bad thing for you? Because I think It's awesome to have a tablet like that at this price tag. I'll refresh my Nexus 7 with the new one as soon as I can since it's extremely affordable.

I have a Nexus 4, no Nexus 7. Have an iPad 3 but want something more portable so don't know if I should get the new N7 or wait for an iPad Mini update. Tied into both ecosystems, but if I go all Android, there's a lot of money wasted on iOS apps.
Also, how do you change names? My girlfriend set this up but doesn't use the account anymore - or is it best to just start a new account?
You can either use multi-user functionality or detach current Google account from tablet and set it up with a new one again.
Nexus 7 is also really portable. It fits into my back pocket and I'm going to everywhere with it without any hassle. iPad 3 in the other hand it's a gigantic device compared to Nexus 7 because it's bigger than 10" and also it has a 4:3 display makes it even more harder to carry around with ease.

You could try asking an admin, but your best bet would be to just create your own account.
I would say yes but this devicenis more capable. I know LG is known for thermal throttling on their mobile phone line. Those constraints won't apply to this new device. Its able to run hotter longer. So even if not stock, once Roms come out, this device/processor can be pushed alot more than in a phone.
Btw, I disabled thermal throttling. On my LG optimus G pro with Snapdragon 600 and Andreno 320. It runs great. So the S4 can be easily pushed past stock limits with no problem.
Eh, its smooth enough. Really no lag at all, but then again, I never had the 1st Nexus 7, so I don't know if that lagged at all. Overall, I couldn't care less whats inside as long as its smooth and fast for the user (me). The ipad mini has 1/4 the power of this, and it runs just as smooth.

NO there internals are different
Snapdragon s4 pro (1.5GHZ) = uses krait 200 cores
snapdragon 600 (1.7GHZ) = uses krait 300 cores
Nexus 4 SOC - (APQ8064) = four Krait 200 cores + 2GB LPDDR2 RAM +Adreno 320
Nexus 7 SOC - (APQ8064–1AA) = four krait 300 cores which are underclocked + 2GB DDR3L-1600MHz SDRAM + Adreno 320
so basically the New Nexus 7 uses a underclocked Snapdragon 600

Source please?
I read something like this already, but I'm a bit skeptical about it. Why would Google advertise the lower spec than they actually are?
If this is true, than it's a gamechanger as krait 300 cores are some 30-40% faster than their older (krait200) brothers.

i believe they claim that it's a s4 pro because of it clockspeed alone, most phones out today which use the snapdragon 600 soc have 1.7ghz + clockspeeds

Yea we have an underclocked S4 600. So its faster then the N4. Also the memory bus has been increased.
The N72 is faster then the N4 but probably nothing noticeable right now. Perhaps with KLP, the additional memory bus and newer CPU instructions might distance the N72 further away from the N4, but who knows.

There are already many rumors about the next generation nexus smartphone.
Current rumors of specs are:
5.9 inch display
snapdragon 805
Latest adreno gpu
3 gigabyte of ram
2k display
What do you think about it?
Will you buy it?
When do you think it will get released?
Do you like the size?
Probably NO I don't think it will be octa-core, that is way too exotic at the moment (as far as I am concerned). If there will be a new nexus probably it will have something around the Snapdragon 801 this year.
Either way the processing power should be more than enough on what we have on the N5 the brighter future would be optimizations in the OS and probably better hardware builds (new materials, etc.).

I`ll only buy the N6 if it has the new Nvidea 192 cored K1 chip, anything less is unacceptable
As said on another similar (also closed) thread, rumors and speculating at this time are pointless. The rumors, leaks and expectatios of most websites seldom come true as history shows most of the times.
Honestly, if the new nexus doesnt have atleast have a 780ti equivalent gpu, it will fail, it better have atleast 12gbs of ram with a 32 inch screen. and if it doesnt make me smoothies, ill pass
I think 3GB of ram and just the latest snapdragon CPU at the time should be fine - no need for 2K screen - Will just destroy the battery

Well, obviously N6 will be a LG phone again. LG Odin SoC has 64-bit octa-core version, so it is quite possible N6 to end up being octa-core 64-bit phone.
If the N6 is going to be the first Nexus with 64 processor and OS, then Google please call it N64, that would be awesome

Of course, flagship device at half the cost of other flagship, although all the nexus devices have at least one subpar area to keep the price down. Galaxy nexus was build quality, nexus 4 was it's camera, and nexus 5 was it's battery. I wonder what the nexus 6 can bring to the table.

These specs would be nice, I´d love to have a really big phone like a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 but without any Knox or similar restrictions
My guess:
Same 5" Screen (1080p)
Snapdragon 801 or whatever the latest is.
Improved graphics chip of some variation.
Improvements in the wireless chipsets.
2GB Ram
Improved Cameras
Slightly larger battery capacity.
Those rumors are ridiculous. It will probably have a snapdragon 805 and be released in October/November just like every other nexus phone.

Are you guys serious? The Nexus 1 did not have a 1 inch screen. The second didn't have a 2 inch screen. The number is the generation of the phone not the screen size.

These silly arguments start around the same time every year. Two years ago it was the Verizon crazies guaranteeing that Verizon would get the Nexus 4. Last year was the best one. The Kandy Kane Krew. "OMG did you see the Candy Cane in the Android version Easter egg?!?! 4.4 will be Kandy Kane!!"
Now it is the screen size naming convention. C'mon man. Screen size has never named a Nexus phone. Sure, there is a Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. What will Google do by then? Who knows...probably not use a number, just like they have two other times in the past (Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus).
OK, i've been looking phones for days and 3 days ago i ordered a Galaxy s4 on Bestbuy for 500 $ ( tax included ).
I was going to buy a factory international unlocked verison on amazon for 350 $ ish , but i saw some bad reviews ( some say it's fake, some say it's refurbished ) and i decided rather just buy from bestbuy but it's been THREE days !!! they havent ship my phone yet.
Do you guys think i should just cancel the order and buy one from amazon or ebay for 350$, but i think those factory unlocked version doesn't have warranty at all !!

If possible I would say buy a Nexus 5. The S4 is on a slower cpu, and I doubt we will get anything past Android L. The Nexus 5 is a strong device for the price, plus you do get months faster updates. You will probably get a few more updates over the S4. Both have comparable on-screen times despite a slight advantage for the S4. But you can swap out the battery for say a Zerolemon which would give a clear advantage over the Nexus 5. The Nexus 5 should have android L before December. All in all, I'd say go for the newer Nexus 5 for the Snapdragon 800's advantage in raw horsepower for games and general use.
When it comes down to it though go with your gut feeling and what is more important to you.

21% times faster it is. Just that. I cant see how 1.9*121% make a difference.
And then what about the i9500? It has Octacore processor? Will you say it has 1.6*8? Lol.
And please dont forget the camera.

There's 4 cores that means 400mhz per core. Therefore it's an increase of 1600mhz.
Also since the chips are both 28nm and on the same architecture, you can compare the mhz. You can't compare the Exynos soc to a Snapdragon based chip because it's on a different architecture. It's like Amd vs Intel if you know those two.
Both cameras take good pictures. Not a huge difference between the two.

But still the aggregate increase remains 21%.
Maths aint that tough brother. we are talking the same thing.
21% faster with no ext mem support, no IR blaster and tons of other features go missing. And still the wide acceptance and reputation of the S4 stands strong.
Plus here in India the S5 is almost the same price of a nexus 32gb. Why would one go for a "nexus" in that case too.
Plus Why not buy the google play edition Galaxy S4?
Where is the difference now mate? Just a processor. Camera, build quality, vendor reputation.??
Plus a S4 is A S4. Comparing processing speeds of different processors is no harm. Why do people then compare apple with samsung? Apple is still a dual core with a 1gb ram. So why are they bashed for hardware. I havent seen an iphone lag. (exclude i4 i4s)

Stop guys, everyone comes here thinks "Damn, I came in a battlefield?" [emoji14]
Tastes are tastes, everyone of us has different tastes among all other... First, Nexus 5 is faster for CPU frequency and GPU is more powerful than S4 (talking about I9505 that beats i9500), S5 is faster than Nexus 5.
How many guys among you may use Nexus 5 at its higher CPU frequency? How many hours battery lasts?
In my opinion, I used a Nexus 5 (with CM11 as my S4) and found that I can't notice any speed difference in normal and heavy use between its 2.3GHz CPU and my S4 with this frequencies: 1 core 1.67GHz, 2/3/4 core 1.45GHz. Even in games, S4 can run any game for Android without problems.
What about Cameras? What about S4's AMOLED vs N5's LCD? What about display density? And IR blaster?
Nexus 5 is more brute force and developer-like, not the best for multimediality.
S4's cameras shoot definitely better, display is superior, has IR led built-in if you want to command your IR devices like televisions, air conditioners, set top boxes, xbox etc. And it's not all [emoji6]
I was almost selling my device to buy Oneplus One, but I can't because I love my S4 guys, it's too perfect in my opinion.
Don't do always and only the "run for GHz", think about everything else too
There are also tons of other things to say, but it's late here and I'm sleepy [emoji42]
