The 2013 Nexus 7 still performs admirably, and mine shows no signs of slowing down. If you can get it for under $200 (new), that's a pretty good deal. Check stores like Staples, OfficeMax, or Office Depot, since they often will put devices like this on sale when they're about to change inventory to the new devices. You'd need to actually visit the stores, because these sales often aren't on their websites. Also check daily deal sites like Woot.com, DailySteals.com, and 1sale.com. Make sure you can distinguish a 2013 Nexus 7 from a 2012 version.
