Nexus 7 tablet shuts down suddenly

[cgsuresh]

My Nexus 7 tablet shuts down all of a sudden though it may have shown 50% battery remaining a few minutes back. I use it only as an e-reader (Kindle) - it doesn't last even a few minutes (after full charge) if I use internet (like YouTube or something). It's quite old - got it in 2007! As a reader it lasts quite long, even while day. But then it shuts down suddenly.

It's 10 years old (you didn't get it in 2007).

I'm actually impressed it's lasted this long... The battery will be completely degraded and the chances are that other components are showing their age.

Get something new.

The battery is saying bye bye to you... pretty soon it won't stay on at all. It definitely sounds like you got your money's worth out of it, probably time to treat yourself to something newer
