A Marshamallow running 32+gb N7 with the same screen resolution, my wife would love it since it would fit in her purse. She already carries her N7 (2013) with her everywhere. Maybe a 4:3 screen shape?

I had the nexus 7 2012 version, and i used it almost exclusively for reading purposes, and it was great. It had a shorter battery life, so if they could improve upon that, I would totally buy an updated version of that size. It was a great machine, and I still used (not as much as I used to)

I have the LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition, and I really love it. The screen is only 1920x1080, but the specs and build quality are better than the Nexus 7. I would like if Google worked with LG to make an updated version of that tablet and perhaps call it the Nexus 8.

I have used a Nexus 9, and I do like it, but I just haven't pulled the trigger on it because my G Pad GPE is still doing fine.

I have the Nexus 7 2013 and honestly I believe it's the best tablet that I've ever used. I have tried Samsung tablets, iPads, Asus tablets, even Windows tablets and I think the Nexus 7 is the perfect size. The tablet isn't so big that it feels like a computer monitor that you're carrying around. It's small enough where you can put it into pretty much any backpack or carry it with you and not be over sized while being large enough beyond any phone and can feel like a good size screen to view whatever you want.

I agree. The Nexus 7 was seriously the perfect size and ran like a dream (well, except my Nexus 7 2012 on lollipop) hahaha, but I hear the 2013 still runs damn perfect.

Root it and then put on a ROM that is nothing but pure. :)
