amazon Nexus 7 reviews
Design and feel
Nexus 7 by Asus produce design and impressive quality. Like most of the other tablets, you have a glossy screen with black borders. Surrounding the body is a silver plastic border that looks quite similar to metal. Face behind the soft plastic material with many small holes, there feeling like being stretched skin.
At the bottom edge is a Micro USB port, and the right side is a volume control button and button on / off. On the left edge are the docking slot and a front-facing camera.
The tablet weighs about 340 g, while the Kindle Fire weighs 408 g, 10.4 mm thick, while the new iPad 9.4 mm wide, 19.8 cm in height, and a width of 11.9 cm.
It feels good when holding. The back caused me a very different impression than the same price range and less sticky fingerprints than the Kindle Fire. The liner screen looks slightly thicker than the screen size, but the wide rim helps keep the machine more accessible when holding reading.
Overall, I was impressed with what Asus and Google Nexus 7. done to design terms; this is class equipment and high quality. Maybe it is no breakthrough design, the thinnest and lightest on the market, but the quality is commendable. It outwardly feels much better than the same price range.
Hardware Configuration
Inside the Nexus 7 is the Tegra 3 processor, four cores clocked at 1.15 GHz when all four cores run or 1.3GHz when running one core; 1 GB RAM and storage capacity of 8 GB or 16 GB. Unfortunately, the machine does not have a microSD card slot. The back of the Nexus 7 is not removable. Machine with the Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi 802.11b / g / n, GPS chip, NFC, accelerometer, compass, sensor rotation. It also has a front-facing camera with a 1.2-megapixel resolution, a speaker slot at the back, and two microphones.
Front camera without much effect outside applications like Google+ Hangouts and its quality is sufficient. But if you want to take pictures with a tablet, you will not have many options. No photography apps available and almost no popular photography apps on the Play Store do show up, though I also found an application used.
It had no 3G or 4G connectivity. The limited storage capacity may make some users uncomfortable, but generally do not have much to complain about for tablets in this price range. In terms of parameters, the Nexus 7 can do everything the same as the higher-priced rivals, even as iPads.

Monitors and display
Nexus 7 screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800, and the glass “Corning glass” is perhaps the glass Gorilla Glass. A pixel density of 216 PPI, and is showing photos and text are crisp 7-inch screen – although not yet reached the quality of the Retina display, but not much worse. The colors seem slightly modified compared to the Super AMOLED screen on the Galaxy Nexus, but maybe because of the phone screen with high color saturation. If placed next to the iPad, the color looks more balanced.
Performance and battery time
The activities of the Nexus 7 are very smooth. We already know about the performance of the Tegra 3 chipset, and it has been demonstrated in this tablet.
Overall performance is an excellent operating system – Android 4.1 and clears the “Project Butter” helped improve responsiveness and smoothness of touch. The application opens quickly, and the operation is also perfect. 3D graphics games optimized for the Tegra chipset look very nice and steady, even though multitasking is almost instant.
Time battery
The evaluation process is relatively short. I found the battery life is quite good – in line with what could be expected in a device this size. A review for the battery runs dry, I gain time is 6 hours with the screen at 65% brightness and constantly open web pages. Battery usage time will depend on gaming, watching videos, or using the application that needs CPU power. Perhaps time will be longer battery life when using the Nexus 7 for many tasks such as watching videos or listening to music because these tasks can only use one of the Tegra 3’s support.
Overall the battery life of the machine is not surprising, but it’s not bad. I do not need to charge your battery so often.
Software
Google made great strides in the interface and usability of the operating system Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). With what has been found in Android 4.1, the company continues to show improvement possibilities and optimized operating systems.
First, Project Butter made the difference. According to representatives of Google, Jelly Bean has the frame rate in the highest transitions ever. The company also improved its ability to identify fingers (finger tracking), enabling more accurate sensors. So far, Android devices still inferior to iOS in their ability to respond to the touch, so this is a significant improvement.
Conclude
Google Nexus 7 is not just a cheap tablet, but it is an excellent tablet. It runs Android first that I can recommend to others to buy, not just because of cheap. It is a product with good design, solid and handy.
Of course, there are problems to solve – mainly the lack of applications dedicated to tablets and expand the content on the online stores – but I do not think that too significant an impact. The Nexus 7 can do more than what I expect; it comes with a compact design, intelligent, and cheap rates.
Maybe you do not believe it, but the last time I sensed a quality product equivalent, it is the iPad.
