So after having your Nexus 7 for awhile do you still like it? Would you rather have a bigger tablet? Would you rather have an iPad?

I have a bigger tablet. I use my Nexus 7 when traveling and my Xoom at home. I think both work great, just depends on how you use them.

I have an iPad 2 as well, but it's not used very much; I'm always on my Nexus 7! (I'm actually an iPhone user, too)

I think the smaller size is generally the reason I use it more. The iPad is quicker and smoother, but I hate carrying it around. The nexus is just a much better size.

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do when the iPad mini comes out. I would think it would be the best combo IF I only had one tablet, BUT I don't. Its nice to have an Android device that I can tinker with without any carrier to worry about. Plus, I really, really like my Nexus 7!

I still like mine, but I'm kind of holding my breath for an iPad mini. I've invested too much in the iOS ecosystem :p

I like my 7" tablet. It's easy to hold and carry. Anything larger and it would be bulky. Does everything I want it to.

I will never buy an apple product.

I have the Transformer Prime and the Nexus 7. I like the Nexus 7 a lot better. The size is perfect.

This I have an iPad 2 and 3 and use an iPhone 5 but I love my nexus 7 I am also concerned with the iPad mini if its going to be better than the nexus as I love the size and weight and to tinker with theming and swapping roms.

I have an iPad 2, an iPod touch (4th gen), and a Nexus 7. The Nexus 7 is outstanding, and, in my opinion, blows the iPad out of the water.

I think the reason I love it so much is a combination of the open, customizable system, and the light, comfortable hardware. (Oh, did I mention it is incredibly fast and powerful??)

+1 on this. I have an iPad 3 and feel the same way. I am thoroughly enjoying my Nexus 7.

No, I don't like it.
I absolutely LOVE it.
I have an iPad 3 and 4th gen iPod touch and the N7 is just so much better than both.
It's really unfortunate that I spent so much money on what's now used as a glorified paper weight.
I no longer use my iPad because it's simply too large and heavy.
I would give it to my little brother, but I can't stand to give a child such an expensive piece of tech.

Noooooo! Don't go back to the dark side! Continue toward the light and you shall remain free! Choice and individuality are beautiful things.

I love mine still. I have to use an iPad 2 for work and it drives me nuts. That thing is too bulky. Sure, browsing the web on it is nice. But I prefer my vanilla android. My n7 is my go to device when I am at home.

I have an iPad 2 and only use it for Airplay. I was a big Apple fanboy but after getting my Skyrocket, I'm addicted. surprisingly I got the N7 to root and run different roms, but I prefer stock Jelly Bean and ended up running CM10 on my Skyrocket. I love the compact size and light weight for as at work and reading before going to sleep.

Only issue I have is more sites don't offer HTML5 vids for Android but otherwise it's great!

I've used lots of peoples iPads but would never buy one for myself. The Nexus 7 is an awesome tablet and I would prefer it over the iPad for a
number of reasons: Android 4.1 which I much prefer over iOS, portability as my Nexus will fit in most pockets and won't wear out my arms, and finally, features including GPS, NFC and Micro-USB. These are just a few of my reasons but in the end, I just got sick of iOS and Apple as a company!

Sell it on eBay. You will get some money for it. Then you can buy 3 more N7's for the whole family. This is why Google is hedging the tablet market more and more now. Value.
