You can play it directly from the USB. No need to transfer

I use NEXT Launcher and configure the double tap gesture to put the tablet to sleep.

Re: Anyone with a recently bought model having issues? I seem to be getting 8 or nine hours on it - mostly internet and magazines. I have been inside and not in bright areas so i keep the screen down to about 1/4 of the way from the left. I do not like the auto level for brightness - on any...

Re: Anyone with a recently bought model having issues? No - same as the one I got - great tablet - enjoy

I have had no difficulties using es explorer with an OTG cable. Also working is Nexus Media Importer with an otg cable. In each case I connected a 64G USB stick formated in NTFS

Remember to take much of what is posted with a grain of salt. People who love the tablet are less likely to post than those who have a [sometime legitimate] complaint. And then of course there are the posts by those who do not even own the tablet but love controversy, and finally those who do...

Agreed - and it is very nice for reading magazines which seem to be closer to the 4:3 format. On my nexus 10 with magazines there was always a bit of space [when full page] at the top and bottom so the 9 works out to be about the same size as with the 10

Just ran an ookla speed test... Ping 12 ms / downloiad 88 M / upload 19M
