So i've read a bunch of places all the flaws of the n7. Yet i decided to get one(being delivered by Amazon, 32Gb)lol. Anyways, i wanted to hear from you nexus 7 owners and see how your n7 is fairing up. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks. :D

Had mine since November. None of the problems I've seen others complain about with mine. All in all I'm totally satisfied with my purchase.

I have a 32gb model that I got in December and I don't have any problems with it. If I look really carefully, I can see a slight screen lift on the left side but I wouldn't have even noticed if I wasn't looking for it. There are some people that have it to the point that it actually causes a noise when pressing down on it, but that isn't my case at all.

It feels really solid when holding it and the textured backing really adds to the build quality imo.

Cool, so it seems some but not all n7's are affected by a manufacturing error. Hope mine will be ok.

Yea, when you make millions of anything on an assembly line there will always be some that come off the line badly. There is a multi-billion dollar business trying to keep that percentage as low as possible, but even 3% of 10 million devices is 300,000 defective devices.

That's why I've had no problems with my Nexus 10 when so many others have. It happens.

This is from me, on my EVO 3D.

Have a 32gb wifi only, had it about 2 months. I use it about 3 hours every day. I left my 4 and 6 year old play games on it. Ive rooted and installed ROMS/Kernels. I dont use any covers/screen protectors etc.

It looks new. I couldnt be happier. No scratches, no loose plastics, screen is perfect.
