Actually its alot bigger than just two inches.

I use the n7 mainly for browsing the net and some minor games. The n7 is only two inches bigger, but it feels and look much bigger than that. I also have the ipad3, but it's getting a bit uncomfortable and heavy for my taste, so this 7" tablet is just the right size for me.

The "2 inch bigger" tablet have over 2X the screen size of the GS4 (N7 22.08 inch^2 vs GS4 10.68 in^2) , It provide substantially better content consumption(Video playback/Ebook +Comic Reading) experience and web broswing. I can even comfortably read/edit Word/Excel with Kingsoft Office on it.
Not to mention the Super Bright LCD screen (538nits, GS4's AMOLED can't dream to match) & Stereo speakers.
I have the s4 rooted and an considering getting the n7 as well. Quick question. I haven't found the answer yet but is the memory expandable?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 4
I have a S4 and bought an Nexus 7 mainly because i want to read PDF and Word documents. S4's screen is to small to do this. But with 7 inch and FHD it is good enough to read letter/DIN A4 docs.Screen resolution does matter to me, so an Galaxy Note 8 or 10 was no real alternative. But I would have taken a Nexus 8 as well
I have both, definitely worth it for Web Surfing and video.

NO,
just buy the 32 gig and you wont get any problems with the storage,, only extra 40 pounds for 16gb...

Please do not compare Galaxy S4 with nexus 7!! doesnt make any sense dude,,, i own both devices, think about, S4 is your mobile phone, so you are using for making calls, text, and web browsing! usually dont even last all day, need to get charge, where nexus 7 coming in and you using it for watching cheeky videos and playing games!
Thank you guys. Now I know what to do
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
I've got both too. At first I thought why do I need it S4 does most things well. But at this price I couldn't complain. Been using it since yesterday and barely touched my phone. The bigger screen is better for browsing and such. Playing games is better to with a bigger screen. Watching videos too. So far I like it.

I can go two days without charging my evo 3d now I have my tablet.
I own both as well, both currently running SlimBean ROM, which is very nice having the interface be the same across platforms, as well as being rid of the hot mess that I'd touch wiz. Well with it in my opinion to have both, even if both running stock ROM.

So I have seen the commercial for the new note 10.1 and its new feature, multiscreen. Is there any way to get this feature on the nexus 7? That's something I have been wanting since tablets have come out, it would be so handy to run two apps side by side.

So I just sold my Acer a500 with hopes of getting 32gb nexus 7. But my gf raised a point of, is it worth it since your phone is already almost 5 in. So does anyone else have a large screen phone an still enjoy an think their nexus 7 is worth it? My dad offered me his transformer prime for $300 so now I'm thinking about that since its way improves over my a500.
I really just use my tablet for web browsing an viewing power points an documents for college. So, do you guys think its worth it if you have a large sized screen phone?

Yeah I have a sgs3. I held the 7 last night an the screen looked very nice an fit well in the hand. Just worried about downgrading to 7 from 10 in. But for what I used my Acer for, the 7 seems like it will be fine. Just like I said in my post about it being not "too" far off from my sgs3 4.8" screen.

For me personally the N7 is too small for web browsing, I don't like to zoom in and out all the time. I think that 8-9' is the perfect size, but I don't see Google making it anytime soon, so I'm going to buy the N10 as soon as its available.

There was no WiFi at Walmart where I had it so I couldn't try web browsing. So I can't really comment on zooming in an out. On my 10" Acer I still had to zoom in an out browsing the web. Though it depended what orientation I had it in. Landscape I could read as is, but portrait I had to zoom in a lot.

My GNexus died. It was great device, i mean it provided great user experience in spite of really average specs (like very poor GPU). I think optimization in case of ti-omap was relatively more advanced than it is in case of snaprdagon s4 pro maybe due to ti's more open policy. Gnex cannot measure up hardwarewise to N4. It can hardly handle more demanding live wallpapers without lag. Its screen is the biggest flaw -grainy, horrible horizontal banding. But still touch responsiveness and scrolling experience is very smooth. To be honest I preferred stock browser experience on my gnex than the one provided with n4 and chrome. Just pinch to zoom and scroll. Literally, heaven and earth difference. But that's the end of gnex's advantages over n4 I noticed so far. I completely disagree with those criticising our lcd-ips screen. It's awesome! I really don't feel the need for 1080p screen. And... 2 GB of ram + 1,5 GHz x4 krait. Why would I downgrade to Gnex? N4 is all I need

I just sold my Kindle Fire, so i need a new tablet. I have enough money for bothe but. So l, I thought why not a TF300? I found a $200 Refurbished TF300(32 GB) for sale so its a very strong competitor to the N7. I listed out the possibilities of the Cons and Pros.
TF300 (32GB)_________________________________•
Pros:
•Has a 10.1 in. Touch Screen with IFT.
•Has 32 GB of Memory.
•Has a actual ultrabook keyboard.
•Is made by ASUS.
•Has Android 4.1
Nexus 7 FHD(16GB)______________________________•
Pros:
•Has Super High PPI
• Has Android 4.3+
•Has a actual ultrabook keyboard.
• Its a Nexus
• Has 2GB of RAM
•Its made by ASUS
Cons of TF300:
•Has 1GB of RAM
•Doesnt have Official 4.2+ Support of Android
•Too large to travel
•Has Lower PPI
•Is a 1 year old device
Cons of a N7 FHD:
• Has a 16 GB Memory
• Has Build as well as Screen and Hardware Problems
• Vulnerable to Break Downs
• Screen is too small
Help me decide which is better, please.

Are you worried about performance? Cause the new Nexus is a LOT faster than the TF300.
Just using the devices will show you that. The TF300 is no slouch don't get me wrong, but the I/O performance coupled with the 1GB ram and (now outdated) tegra 3.. just doesn't stack up to the Nexus. If you can live without the keyboard and don't mind a 7" screen, go for the Nexus straight away.
The thing is there are soooooooo mmmaaaannnnny problems with the N7 that you just don't want buy it but the hardware is too good.

I have both, and to be honest, I'd take the new n7 10 times out of 10.
Its smaller, battery is better, screen is better, vanilla Android, faster processor... If you want to store all your data on one device, then I'd steer you to the tf300, otherwise, go with the n7, without a doubt.
And an FYI, I had the first n7, and had zero issues as well. I have sent my tf300 in twice for warranty work.

I would go with an Asus memo 7 hd over the nexus same basic design with an sd card. Albeit a slower soc lower ppi it can be had for 150$ the nexus 10 looks sexy.

It connects to bluetooth speakers just fine, but you'll have to try you luck with bluetooth keyboard. It will connects to an Apple bluetooth keyboard, but a key will hold every minute or so. Which makes it unable. Then I have this motorola bluetooth keyboard that won't even connect at all. The multi touch issue was fixed in a recent update. There is also a problem with the GPS locking up in one location which I'm not sure if it was fix during the update.

Really? I found them quite adaptive. Especially since you can customize the layout of each individual button. The position of it on the screen and 5 different sizes for each button. Even the HUD map on the screen is customizable. I definitely couldn't rock the default controls on GTA 3 and Vice city for mobile. So I suggest you go into the settings

Haha for sure. Also in Vice City mobile you could boost performance and graphics/ draw distance. I'm not certain if you can on gta3 mobile, but you should check it out in the settings. Might be under "display". I don't have a nexus 5 yet, I'd imagine it would look very nice.

Same here. The new Moga Power series looks really good. They made it better than the v1 and it now can charge your phone while you play.
Ok that's cool I didn't know there was a new version. But I already have a ps3 controller so no point in buying something else. Unless there was something that attached to the phone like a slide case like the iphone one. Then that would be worth buying (except for iphone it costs 100 dollars id only buy it if it was at most 1/3 of that lol )
Amazon version is out now!! At least for the UK. I'm not going to purchase it from there though, I'm waiting for the Google play version.
