Final Words
If you are looking for a budget tablet look no further. When it comes to bang for the buck there simply is no competition
The Nexus 7 leaves all other tablets in the dust
Speaker placement may be awkward in landscape mode
Android tablet apps are still hit-and-miss
Newbies might find vanilla Android bare bones
Display color balance and saturation not as impressive as resolution
No expandable storage
No camera flash
Large facia bezels
Can't expand the storage
No HDMI port
Photos tend to get washed out
Slightly more expensive than the original Nexus 7
Storage not expandable
Parental controls not as comprehensive as competitors
Some thirdparty apps must be updated for Android 4.3
Some apps still need to be optimized for Android 4.3
Google needs to catch up in app library
Oversized bezels can be awkward
Features
Many people choose a Google tablet over alternative Android models because Google sends out latest software updates to its own devices before other vendors get a lookin. The new Nexus 7 comes with Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean)
Which you'll be hard p
Camera performance could be better

IPad App Store still has more
Better apps
Rear camera is terrible
Poor camera

Awkward bezels

Chunky bezels add unnecessary girth to an otherwise slim slate. Wish there were more tabletoptimized apps in the Google Play store to take advantage of the large
Highres screen. Battery shrivels up rather quickly in standby mode
OS takes up 6GB

Battery life not as long as the original Nexus 7's
In conclusion the Nexus 7 (2013) is a great device, it feels more refined than last year's model, if feels better quality and it certainly feels faster. The software just seems to work that little bit better on the newer hardware.Bar a few issues with dod...

Terrific screen, powerful processor, new camera, low price
Bigger than the original, no expandable memory
The new Google Nexus 7 beefs up the original's spec with a hugely impressive HD screen, more powerful processor and a new camera while keeping the price low. Samsung's 7-inch Galaxy Tab 3 may cost a little less, but the Nexus beats it on features, and i...
It's never easy to tempt someone away from a system they're used to, especially when it comes to mobile platforms. But the Nexus 7 is possibly one of the strongest arguments for switching to an Android tablet, especially if you're a current iPad mini owne...

Outstanding display with ideal resolution, Screen brightness, Sober, elegant design with good handling, Responsive, with enough processing power to make this a great allround tablet, Android 4.3
Nonexpandable memory, Soso frontfacing camera, Bezel and screen borders could be thinner
The new Nexus 7 is far more than a cut-price update of the original. Elegant, responsive and skilled at everything it does (with the exception of perhaps the camera function), this year's Nexus 7 is nearly a flawless device. It's a shame it doesn't have a...
We don't have much of a bad word to say about the new Nexus 7. It could do with a bigger battery and its ergonomics can be a touch off, but for the price, this is an absolute corker of a tablet.It reminds us how good Android can be when it's left alone. W...
Thinner and lighter than the previous version, Scratch resistant Corning glass covering, Fantastic quality screen, Much improved 5 Megapixel Auto focus camera, Better performance than last year's model, Still very affordable
Battery life is acceptable but still not fantastic for a device this size
The 2013 version of the Nexus 7 is a fantastic revision of what was already a great little tablet device. In terms cost vs. performance, there is little else to compete with this tablet.If you are looking for an affordable high specification 7” tablet dev...

Superb, highresolution screen; Huge amounts of power; Great build quality; Good value
No microSD slot; Buttons too flush; Average camera
The Nexus 7's screen bests every rival for pixel count and sheer quality. The components outstrip virtually everything out there – so performance is slick. The chassis is slimmer, lighter and more comfortable than before, and the 16GB and 32GB models cos...
