One of the reviews that made me decide to get the nexus 7. I've been using it for 6 months now and i'm still loving it. The display is so good, first in line for software updates and most of all it runs vanilla android!!!

This is for anybody looking to purchase the tablet: I bought the Nexus 7 2nd gen about 2 months ago. I have used ipads and most of my family has one ..except me. I had never used a a android tablet before..and everybody said if your gonna get one get the Samsung Galaxy tab 3 or the Nexus. Considering I only had about 250$ i had to choose the 7. And I am extremely satisfied. One of the things I like about it is everything is connected to your google account. Say you forgot your passcode..you sign in with google info. I dont know if that is because its made by google or it is because its android. Also the tablet has a really high definetion display. Like...i think its better than retina in my opinion. I also like how you can use the tablet in 1 hand and its not to big not to small. This video really helped me make my desion. Thanks so much!~

This was the best tablet I had ever had, I’d trade it any day for my iPad

I love these long unboxing and review videos! THX!

This tablet is extremely reliable. I have all my textbooks on it & would pick it over an iPad mainly because you have the ability to do whatever you want via the android ecosystem. I have an iPhone and macbook. That's enough apple for me lol but I've had this tablet for 6 months and fell in love. I don't know how some individuals claims theirs is buggy or anything like that. Maybe try not overloading the storage with b.s? That'll make even the high end devices start slowing down. But deff a great tablet! I'd recommend the nexus series over any tablet on the android market right now .

Just purchased an Nexus 7 32 GB (2nd Generation), pretty happy and can't wait for it to arrive!

Omg the little hole is the mic and not the sim ejector hole? I've been wondering why the paper clip wouldn't eject the tray...

[ginariley]

I've using it for 6 months by now, and still No complaints! I bought this instead of buying a smart phone, I'm happy I did.

Wow, I have just bought this device and I can fit it in my pocket without it poking out and I can still sit down comfortably! Now those are what I call pockets! :)

I definitely plan on getting the Nexus 7 soon. I have an iPad mini and iOS 8 just stinks right now, more than when iOS 7 first came out. And the price seems so cheap for quality, so this probably will be my next tablet.

WOW excellent review !! I liked the slow animation you did using only your hands at the end of please

i watched a bunch of nexus 7 2nd gen reviews, this is very helpful because he goes more in depth.

I'm having trouble removing the widgets/apps from my homepages. I touch and hold them for a while but never do I get an option to remove, or even move them around sometime. What could be wrong? My tablet is brand new as well, just bought it a couple hours ago.

Does anybody why Samsung didn't make a 2nd Generation of the Google Nexus 10 unlike Asus who made a 2nd Generation for the Google Nexus 7?

[Magneira]

Great video, you really know about the product and you explain really well, I'm tired of those so called "tech journalist" who don't know simple things like the new features of 4.3 (looking at you the verge), I'm subscribing!

Mine is coming in the mail tomorrow! Can't wait!

[skitzoid]

Mine will be here on Tuesday :) Hope it rocks!

[ALTMED]

Does it have a SIM card slot for 4g internet connection? 
Thank you so much for the video :)

3:50 :  "Like all nexus devices we also have a notification LED light", mind that the previous nexus 7 did NOT have this light, and i think thats going to come in handy. I still have the old one, which works like a charm, but i have to say the new nexus 7 looks great, and i want it!
