  I'd probably nab one if it were the 3G version.

    I completely agree. At this price, 3G version is preferable.

  Good price. OW has this listed for $279. Whats so good about having 3g?

  Anyone know whats the major difference between the newer nexus and this one?

    Do I really need to explain the benefits of being able to connect to the internet without having to find a free (or paid, I guess) wifi network?

    Here's a comparison of the old and new model: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/reviews/tablets/3463254/nexus-7-v…

    TLDR; faster, prettier, lighter, rear camera.

      Thanks. yes I understand the benefit of 3g but wonder how many tablet users really need a 3g connection.

        Obviously not everyone needs 3g. I was talking about what I want. The I in "I'd" means I'm talking about me.

    To get the GST back do the items need to be in the same receipt?

    • 

      paulaus on 23/09/2013 - 17:16

      No as long as they are from same store and purchased within 60 days of travel

  Good price, I paid $320 for my 16GB model when they were new at the Play Store.

  If I had extra money I would buy this without thinking twice.

  How do you rate the screen? Is it that bad as they say on the review? Also why did they do a front facing camera? whats the use in that?

  •

    It's not incredibly bad, but not great either. Resolution is getting a bit dated, but it's not incredibly noticeable unless you're going straight from a ~300 PPI screen anyway. It is a bit washed out, though.

    The front facing camera is pretty much just for video calls. The 2013 model has both front and back facing cameras.

      If your over 50 you probably wont notice any difference lol.

    The front camera is used for Skype, Hangout, Viper and other VOIP services that allows video calls!

    Screen is not great, it's acceptable, but going from my SGS1 or SGS3 to this is a bit disappointing. As stated above it's a bit washed out.
    It has great viewing angles though, compared to my missus Acer tablet (I think the A100) which has the viewing angles are like a laptop monitor from 10 years ago.

    The Acer beats this in some ways (has a Mini-HDMI port and MicroSD card slot), but performance-wise the Nexus 7 is better.

    I wish I had the money to throw away, then I'd have bought the Galaxy Note 8.

  If you want to connect a usb flash drive you can buy an OTG cable at MSY for $1 and an App on play store for $3.82 called Nexus Media Importer.

  Warning, my 16gb just stopped working, and I did not use it that much. Will not turn on anymore, no idea what the problem is.
