Is your Nexus 7 slow? Should I wait for the new one?

Check out this YouTube video video:

In it, C net says the Nexus 7 is more comfortable to hold than the iPad Mini. They also go on to rate the Nexus as overall the better tablet.

Funny that they ignore the Nexus 7 lag. 4.4 to 4.2, not a big loss, the iPad Mini lost mostly because of the price. No big deal there.

I barely get 1-2 hrs usage on my Nexus 7 and have gotten as much as 16 hours on my iPad Mini.

Wut.

My N7 easily lasts 6 hours of screen time and over q say of moderate usage.

Well then you won't have a very good tablet experience. I'm sorry but the people saying the iPad is the best tablet are right!

Why are you trying to push your choices on the OP? He clearly didn't want an iPad, and he didn't buy one.

Looks like the Mini is much wider. Pretty bulky to me compared to the N7.

Keep trying to convince people that it is too bulky, it's not.

As far as battery life, everyone's experience is different. Clearly there are people on this forum complaining about their battery life and to me, it's the worst feature on my Nexus 7.
 
Check out this YouTube video--



In it, CNET says the Nexus 7 is 'more comfortable to hold than the iPad Mini.' I understand that that might not be important to you, but it is to me, and a whole lot of other people.

I might also point out that the final verdict from CNET is that the Nexus is the better tablet than the iPad Mini.

It was already posted two or three posts above. In the end, the iPad lost because of it's price. Doesn't seem to be affecting the public though. iPads are clearly selling.
 
I have to agree there, I get easily 12+ hours battery with over 5+ hours screen on time. I use mine for the forums, medium gaming usage, YouTube and chatting via hangouts/Skype.

Battery is great, but that's my experience.

Yeah now you lose all credibility when you say your Nexus battery lasts only an hour. And if you actually watch the video, you would know the Nexus won, not because of price primarily, but because of extras such as Google now, widgets, better maps, and so on.

I have no idea what to say about only an hour or two of battery life without seeing some battery stats and history on what your doing during that time. Only then can I even attempt to respond on your experience.

If you have some battery stats to share I'm sure everyone would be happy to check them out NexusGirlX

ToysRus has the 32GB Nexus 7 on sale this week for for $199.
Not a bad price for someone looking to get a 32GB Nexus 7.
With the occasional lag, I'd probably recommend someone scooping one up for that price, rather than the $249 the price.
I'm hoping the next update, or next version of Android, fixes the lag issues for me.

Staples as well.

Thanks. Last time I checked they still had it for $249. Nice to see them drop the price. I see that Office Depot has updated theirs as well. Walmart still has it for $249. Probably a matter of time before they update their listing price also. With the price drop, the next version of the Nexus 7 is probably due to come out soon.

And that makes a tablet better how?

It doesn't just as the Cnet video posted above doesn't make the Nexus 7 any better. The results in the video was their opinion and not fact. What tablet is better is the one you actually like the best. For me, that is the iPad and had I bought it before the Nexus 7, the iPad would be the only tablet I would have bought. To me it beats that Nexus 7 in every way.
 
I actually agree with this, though for me, the best is the nexus 7. What I don't agree with, and I assume you either, was the blanket statement that someone made that 'those who say the iPad mini is the better tablet are right.'

But a person does have the right to say either the Nexus 7 is the better tablet or the iPad is the better tablet because as long as they say it is their opinion. Simply saying one or the other is better doesn't make it a fact.

That's all I have to say on this today. I'm not gonna keep going back and forth on this. It's only a material object after all.
