    This review was actually very indepth and informative. Instant like when she got all technical and brought out gamma charts for the display.
    Not many reviewers would go that far!

    Thank you so much for the review. I absolutely love your videos, I'm a big display nerd and you're the only person I've found on TH-cam who consistently uses a colorimeter to give true display reviews and I absolutely love that on top of giving factual, unbiased reviews instead of just 'I think this looks/runs good or bad, etc.' One point that I would like to put out there if it has not already been commented on is that there is a very good chance that the increase in gpu performance

    When did they get their unit? Google released 2 updates since the release. I have not had any wifi issues thus far. Was it dropping? I'd say battery life is average...like lasts a little longer than the average smartphone. It's not fantastic like lasting longer than 10 hours or anything. But it's ok...

    @coren42 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Erica! Love the review. You've pretty much convinced me to buy one!
    one question, though: how's the sound quality when you use earphones? Now I'm no whiz like yourself and François, but as I understand it, the DAC does a lot for the sound quality. I'm still in love with my Nexus S for that very reason. How's stuff on the new Nexus 7?

  • @DanteSolablood

    It's not LPDDR3. It's DDR3L. There is a slight difference. I actually mentioned all of this if you actually watched the video.

    Great review as usual,
    I played with one in a shop today and had the feeling that input latency is still there
    Could you test it ?
    Might be specific to the demo unit ?
    Well ... just wanted to know if you have tested that
    Thank you anyway

    Thanks for this great review. I have the previous model of the nexus 7 and I am still happy with it. This new model seems awesome though, I hear nothing but praise for it. I will wait for the new nexus 10 before deciding to which one to upgrade.

    Where can I get one of those color-ometers? I've been dying (figuratively) to test my calibrated nexus 4 screen, and see if I put the gamma where it should be or if it's too low.

  • @CraigMcAnuff
    @CraigMcAnuff 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Amazing video Erica!! Saw you first on XDA and just came across this video in my "what to watch" stream. I'm glad I did as you now have a new subscriber!!
    I love this review! I also have a question. I noticed that it didn't look like you had any touch sensitivity issues in your video. I (and many others based on forum posts I've read), have experienced varying degrees of missed-touch / multi-touch problems. How was your experience as you continued to use the tablet?
    Thanks!

    • @lancedomhoff1126
      @lancedomhoff1126 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've had mine since its been out and no touch issues? I think people complain about the weirdest thing that is probably their own fault any ways.

    • @CraigMcAnuff
      @CraigMcAnuff 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      lance domhoff It's true that some people are anal about their devices and complain about some things that can be relatively minor. However, the issues I've (and many others have faced) unfortunately isn't our fault and not minor.
      Don't get me wrong, I love my N7; but the touch-issues mar an otherwise impeccable device. Sometimes the missed touches can really make the tablet unusable until it's restarted. It's just frustrating at the worst of times.

    • @DanteSolablood
      @DanteSolablood 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      lance domhoff Unfortunately I have to agree with Craig McAnuff. I've had some serious touch screen issues as well. Checking the Android forums I found this is quite common. While I had the tablet since May this year... I'd given it quite the benefit of the doubt, but I was wrong, I called Asus a couple of weeks ago who were aware of the hardware issue & it's currently with them.

    @nathan4403 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love your reviews; I will buy this in part from this review. On another note, Oppo has released the Color ROM (Project Firefly is over) for the Oppo Find 5. Any chance for a review on that device/ROM? Not for me, the device is awesome, just want to get the word out. Armando Ferreira still chooses the Find 5 over the HTC One.

  • @Goalier95
    @Goalier95 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Has this new Nexus 7 gotten over the lag or sluggishness from the original? I heard last year that if the memory was down to 1GB the system would slow down to a crawl, any issues with filling up the device to near capacity? Thanks!

  • @EricaGriffin
    @EricaGriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm sure that with the FauxClock program that without being able to match with sRGB or Gamma 2.2 that you can't possibly guess and eyeball it.

    Do you notice that the top edge of the display by the camera is brighter than the rest of the tablet or did I get a lemon?

  • @MRiTzMax
    @MRiTzMax 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Erica do you think 7" is optimal for a tablet? It's only 2" bigger than the S4. Do you think 8+ would be optimal for media consumption?

  • @925boosting

    Good review. One thing I noticed is I don't have a disable tab in my app section like shown in your video. That's weird and my tablet has the latest update.

  • @GoFlyRise
    @GoFlyRise 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Erica, I am currently using a galaxy s3 and I'm on Verizon wireless and to be honest... i go t this phone last Wednesday.. Just switched from apple but i have been big on android. Anyways, Have you heard anything about a nexus 5? or nexus (vs) (2013) ?? I've heard of a google winter event coming up.

  • @karanvora1321
    @karanvora1321 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Erica...I am planning to buy a new tablet...within a budget of 350$...which one would u suggest? I have two options...THE NEXUS 7 2nd GENERATION or THE IPAD MINI!
    PLEASE REPLY!

  • @Eurostar710
    @Eurostar710 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Erica, how do you feel about the app support for android tablets? I want an Android tablet but all I'm hearing is bad things about app support for them. Yes they have apps, but they're ugly stretched out phone apps. I want apps designed to use all that extra space. I want to buy a tablet & if there aren't good android tablet apps I'll have to go with an iPad because of all the iPad specific, beautiful apps on the Apple app store. But this Nexus 7 is a beauty! Can't wait to see the next Nexus 10!

    @doppelganger_1409 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Erica , are you having problems with your wifi on your new Nexus 7 tablet? The reason I'm asking is because TechnoBuffalo put up a video not too long ago complaining about wifi problems and battery problems I was just wondering if you're having the same problem I have got the old 2012 Nexus in love we had for like 2&a half 3 months and I've had no problems with mine for older model of last year you know I got you sure are you having any p Great video keep up the really great work!!!

    @EricaGriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    no problem =) On the S4 and HTC One Qualcomm versions it is soooo not smooth at all. I have had this problem with every qualcomm device so far besides nexus...really don't know what Samsung and HTC did to their drivers.

  • @flybriur
    @flybriur 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Speaking of the stuttering in granny smith, I know it's not a really demanding game, but could the stuttering be due to throttling? While playing Virtua Tennis on my S4 I notice that after playing for about 15-20 min there are more occasional stutters, the game seems to be running a bit slower, and touch responsiveness in the game is decreased -- waiting a bit and then resuming seems to fix the issue. Rather disappointing, considering the phone doesn't seem to be getting that hot at all....

    Now is a good time to learn =) If a display does not have a good enough contrast ratio, blacks won't look good or dark enough. Maybe you haven't experienced this enough yet.

  • @DragosStefanache
    @DragosStefanache 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Permission centre does not refer only to disabling notifications. That was a mere example. The possibility to block an app for having access to my contacts or to my messages is a functionality which should have been implemented a lot earlier. So it is one of the best features available next to user accounts.

  • @EDWINOOI1991
    @EDWINOOI1991 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Erica, do you experience any Wifi connectivity issue with this device? Jon Rettinger from TechnoBuffalo claims that his unit have Wifi connection issue, the connection is wonky/ hard to get connected and it is causing the battery drain faster, he do say it might be a faulty review unit and he will give the view an update if he managed to get another unit. Great job reviewing the product! Certainly my go to reviewer.
