I love mine. ...Some people have perfect devices. Some people have defective devices. And some people think they have defective devices after spending too much time in here.
Loll thanks. What do you use yours for?
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
Apps, email, web. Etc. It's not my only tablet, but I'm starting to like it more than my larger one.

Been playing with it for awhile. It is fantastic. Don't think about it, just buy it.

I have an iPad 2, as well as a N7 and I'll tell you the 7 inch form factor is so much easier to use in various situations and orientations. I really love mine'. Well I also got it for free since I was t Google IO =)
Mine was defective with a dead pixel, I got it replaced the next day. Great device.
I think the battery could be better, honestly it's around 20% now and I've been using it for around five and a half hours.

I've been using mine for over two hours straight, and I'm at 77%. Right where I should be. (auto brightness)

Might be because I've got blue tooth and wifi on. Played some riptide and Modern Combat 3 as well.

Yes for me.
Envoyé depuis ma Nexus 7.
yes. Google's RMA is fast and painless.
Yes I would.
Themes and apps isn't really the right section for this.
It would depend where the pixel is for me.
just noticed I posted in wrong forum. I was using the Tapatalk app and forot which section I was in
If I just bought it, yes. If I've owned it for several months and a single pixel went out I probably would not exchange it for the lottery reburb I would get (assuming they would even warranty it...I don't know what their pixel policy is).

I did, what sucks is that it was clear until I did the update about an hour after turning it on, rebooted...and there it was, laughing in my face. Got my replacement and the only issue I have now is very slightly raised screen, no problem though, I see there are fixes for that if I really feel like it.

Yep, specially because you just bought it, btw, there is a few free apps to cure dead pixels.
After 1 year in my hd2 I got one, the app cure it, but it was coming back every month or so and the I had to cure it again.

I find myself in the same situation.
I ordered online from Futureshop.ca (Canada)
I am about 6 days out of the 14 day exchange policy as I went on vacation and am just now getting to play with the tablet.
I have 1 dead pixel, now that I know it's there it is buging me, I also have screen flicker with low wifi issue, no lifting though.
Called Google, told me to call Asus.
Called Asus and got an RMA but I have to pay for shipping to Asus, I am worried I will get back a tablet with screen lifting!
Going to take my changes and send it in I guess.

No. I have one white pixel but you only notice it if you are actively search for it and only on a complete black screen. Doesn't bother me at all.
I thought I have just one dead pixel, but I found others, on different colors.
I am not able to return my Nexus 7, but I would do it if I could.

for sure i would no way would i accept any new electronic purchases that came with defects
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yep. Why anyone wouldn't is beyond me. Not doing so is basically encouraging less QC to be needed (if your bugging ASUS about RMA's they'll probably learn to make their devices better; whereas not bothering ASUS about issues will probably allow them to lack more and more on QC).
So I just noticed a dead pixel on the left middle hand side of my n7 while viewing a black picture should I take it back to office depo and get a new one or should I not worry about it , I have never had this problem before.

Yeah, big props if you can deal with it. I've experienced my fair share of dead pixels and it's probably the worst thing ever. No matter the location, it draws the eye. Incredibly annoying. Wouldn't blame anyone for exchanging it.

Yeah man, guess I have had some bad ones. I had an Evo that was plagued by a couple issues, one being a dead pixel. It seemed to develop another rather quickly. Thankfully the last phone with any issues. My first N7 had one, found during a screen test. Replacement is perfect. (replaced due to screen lift) Good luck.

A single dead pixel popped up over night.. right in the middle of the screen. That's really annoying..
It's black.. so it's visible in most apps. But is that enough to order a replacement?
Besides that, my N7 is flawless. Damn that's unfortunate.
dead pixel already!?

i have one on the lower right hand side of my N7 though its just a tiny black speck but only noticeable with light colored backgrounds but less noticeable with blue backgrounds. anyway one dead pixel is not enough to be covered by its warranty
Damn what a night. So I went did a trade for this nexus with a guy. The nexus was sitting on the box on the trunk of my car while we were switching Sims next thing I see is it sliding off the box hits the ground and bounces. My heart dropped. About 5 dings on the bezel. The screen and back survived. So I got the Google play bumper and its good as new. Sucks Cuz I like the phone naked

No. Look at the glass threads. Tons of people dropped theirs and shattered glass before you.

Yes, you're the first person in the world to drop the nexus 4. Congrats!

I got my phone last night and I already dropped it today from about chest high while taking of my sweat shirt. No broken glass or anything from a hard wood floor. I think it really depends on how it lands. Oy really seems fairly durable to me.
If you average up all the thousands of sold I am sure the ones with broken glass are a very nonsignificant percentage..

Just broke my glass back -___- . I dropped into power switch made of aluminum and made several back cracks. Well, at least it wasn't the front.
ouch, i need protection! i still haven't taken off that original screen protector! i know if i drop mine the back glass is gonna crack

So today I flipped open my case and my digitizer was cracked on my less than 2 week old N7. Won't let me unlock or anything. I have not dropped or otherwise damaged it. Has this happend to anyone else? Manufacturing defect? I also noticed last night that on black screens there were some red splotches. I'm just afraid if I try to get it replaced they will say physical damage have a nice day.

I believe it and no have not heard of this happening. If it was a drop, there would be a clear dent or shatter marking on that line before it splits into two. Just talk to google or where-ever you bought it from and try to keep calm. When glass breaks, it shatters and not produce hairline breaks like that.
get it replaced for free.

yup either that or a crack form pressure like sitting on it or having it in the back pocket and forgetting about it.
that's not a defect. it just doesn't crack on its own.
I couldn't find my tablet. Looked high an low. Sat down on the sofa and found it. My screen is worse than your picture but is the same result. No way to unlock the screen or anything. She is busted.

The tablet had slipped down the back of the sofa between the seat cushion and the back of the sofa. I sat down and it must have squished it. The cushions are super soft and I'm still not 100% sure it happened.

I bought a 32gb the same day and had it sent overnight. I learned an expensive lesson to be more careful. Flo isn't as tough as my SGSIII. These screens seem soft.

ahaha, nice!!
is Asus charging you to repair that device?
The nexus 7 has a very weak glass.
Mine got hairline crack from twisting.
Most drop test videos show it breaks on the first drop.
I have replaced first unit, waiting until local repair guy can get parts from his usual source to get first one fixed. May try contacting google/Asus about a repair but have not done that yet.

If you bought it with a credit card you may have coverage. Many of the premium cards come with 90 day replacement insurance.
