Official Nexus 9 Unboxing & Start Up - Hands On! (Any ?'s from anyone?)

[mxrider821]

As promised, here's my unboxing video. I will do a mini review within the next couple of days. Sorry for the bad audio and mild speech. It was late and I had no energy to go into detail.

On the other hand does anyone have any questions about anything? Ask away! So far I love this thing

How's the color reproduction? Good saturation?

Did you get the "Magic case?" My tablet gets here tomorrow, but I'm still undecided on a case.

I'd like to see how a PDF magazine looks on it. Not magazines from Google Play or anything made specifically for mobile devices, but PDF versions of actual magazines that's on newsstands. Is that possible?

I didn't get the case but I do want it. They were sold out by the time I got to them

More info for you all!

Screen resolution is better than I thought. It's hard comparing anything to my macbook retina that is nearly 3K, it's definitely better than the N7 because it's higher resolution. YouTube is OK not great in 1080p, it's not giving me the option for 2K playback for some odd reason so I know it could be improved. However I just put a 4k video on there and it looked fantastic! Also I played modern combat 5 and the graphics were amazing and the framerate was flawless. Definitely best experience I've ever seen on tablet. The speakers are loud and super crisp, best speakers I've heard on a tablet as well. And 0 issues with touch

I just downloaded a full PDF magazine, and they look awesome! Full screen and hi res. Definitely Impressed!

Are you required to zoom in and out in order to read and navigate around - or is everything readable as-is when in full page mode?

Couple other questions... Is there noticeable light bleed between the screen and the device? Opening and closing of apps... Sluggish or responsive?

Haven't seen any light bleed on my device. Open and closing apps is pretty smooth depending on how many apps you have open

Thanks mxrider821! Have you had a chance to check out the reviews to see if you agree/disagree with their assessment of the device?

I haven't heard anything about OTG. Do you know if it has those capabilities?

How long to download the update? I started mine gave it my wifi setup and it immediately went to a screen saying it was dl'ing an update which should take up to 5 minutes then do a restart. It has been over 5 minutes and I am unable to go to any screen to see the progress.
