haha everyone thinks mine is a Kindle Fire. Even the tech support at my school .

I actually did tell her it's the Nexus, she didn't seem familiar with it so I just said it's the competitor. *sigh* if only more were as enlightened as us...

Should have told her it's what Apple copied.

I've been asked the same thing. When I tell them it's a Nexus 7, they just respond back with... "oh".
Goes to show how well Apple market their products.

If someone asked me if my Nexus 7 was an iPad Mini, I'd say, "No, because the Mini can't do this," and proceed to show off my cool live wallpapers, homescreen widgets, Swype-style keyboard, superior voice search, and superior screen. For 80 bucks less.

I have been asked a few times. Generally I just laugh. As if I would buy an iPad mini.. Quite insulting actually.

I've been asked that a lot lately (Sunday Habit - go to the bar and watch football with Nexus 7 to stay up to date on Fantasy Football scores).

Usually it's just dudes asking, so I just give the curt "nah its a Nexus 7, think Google's version of the iPad" so they'll leave me alone. Now if a decent looking chick were to ask...

I haven't been asked that, but I work at a tech company and have had to wipe the drool off it a few times. One of the guys has an Ipad mini, but several others have bought the N7 since I got mine.

I had someone tell me " oh you have the new Kindle!" What I found works better than saying it's the Nexus is telling them " No, this is Google's tablet." Everyone's heard of Google, so it has instant credibility.

I haven't yet. Someone else here at work has a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and wishes she waited to buy the Nexus.

A babe asked me if that was the new ipad mini in my pocket and I said no. I'm just happy to see you.
