Baselayers Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Any idea when the new nexus 7 is out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted March 3, 2013 Administrator Share Posted March 3, 2013 I doubt it'll be before I/O in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'd guess it will be on an annual update cycle, so July/August time. I've just bought a Nexus 7 this week, I don't think we are so close to the new one that it is worth delaying a purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I've bought myself a 16GB Nexus. In conclusion, the answer to this thread is Nexus 7. It's an excellent bit of kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I figure this is the age old, $64,000 question, but i'm going to ask my Villa brethren anyway... I have a Samung GS3 which I use quite a lot. I do a lot of commuting on the trains, (3hrs a day), the battery on it doesnt last particularly long. Is there room in my life for a smart phone and a Nexus 7?! If there is, I will snaffle one up today. Cheers guys and gals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Or you can get an extended battery, preferably from Mugen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even tether occasionally, although if I was buying another N7, I'd buy the 3g one and put a giffgaff SIM in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eames Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Catch our trains, we have power points! That would involve catching a train. Tbh I'd rather catch aids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm tethering from my phone to my Nexus now, it works well. I have limited Internet though so I don't do it often but I'll be on giff gaff soon which eliminates the need for another sim card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Thanks for all the advice guys, much appreciated. Went into Curry in B'ham yesterday afternoon and had a play with the N7, it does indeed look like a great piece of kit. And big enough in comparison to the GS3 to be worth getting. Cheers.
