Nexus 7 (2013) First Impressions

2013-07-29
what's up everyone John renter from TechnoBuffalo here and I want to give you my first impressions of the brand new 2013 Nexus 7 let's get first impression I've been using the new Nexus 7 for two and a half days not enough time for me to do a full review but plenty of time to share some first impressions so when it comes to all the performance specs and all the benchmarking I'll cover that in the full review so I'm using this as my only tablet again for the better part of two and half days and I've really enjoyed it first and foremost a big difference the screen it is absolutely gorgeous to look at well not your browsing websites or looking at videos or playing games the screen is absolutely awesome especially 1080p on a 7-inch tablet I really blows me away so the combination of Asus and Google did a really really incredible job with this surprisingly viewing angles are really good even in direct sunlight so they're however far you look at it where you turn it you can always see the screen so that's been really pleasant to see as well I tried to open as many apps that could see if it could get bogged down and handled everything really well no slow down at all in speed performance is pretty baller in the new Nexus 7 but not everything is totally Rosie I did have a few issues I had a really hard time locating at pushing the power button the upper right hand corner figuring out where it was just by touch is kind of difficult that's they've definitely to take some getting used to and one of the biggest surprises for me is the Wi-Fi radio is not that strong it had a really hard time picking up a good signal in my home where every other tablet a test together android/ios had no issues at all so I'm going to continue to test out with other Wi-Fi networks and see if that continues to be the case so if you things that impressed me as well is what's happened with google play over the past few months and even a year they used to be not very many tablet-optimized apps there now they're an absolute ton of apps meant just for android tablet so if you were sort of teetering on the fence because you have that sort of preconceived notion that tablet apps aren't there yet do not worry there are huge huge huge amounts of tablet applications so that was kind of nice to see I do like the new back that sort of soft touch feel it's really nice to hold in the hand the bezels on the top of the bottom are still a little bit on the thick side but the reduced bezel on the side was really nice it almost feels like a different aspect ratio because it's so thin for really liked holding it that myself actually using it in portrait mode and not landscape like I do other tablets so I was kind of interesting as well I set it up pretty much the way I set up an android phone so the ways performed it looked for me was just like a bigger version of my google play nexus for them using as my daily driver I really enjoyed the tablet performance again was also looking forward to testing a little more thoroughly and sing our performance but at least first impressions wise looking at getting a tablet this is a really good choice a few other small notes the speakers on this well they look like little dinky speakers are really loud Google touted their new partnerships if the speaker volume up and grokken and they did a really nice job with this so you combine you know the nexus 7 perhaps a chromecast at about 40 bucks you got a pretty nice houma set up for you I really enjoyed using it again I'll use it for another couple days before I feel comfortable doing a full review and I'll tech Hawk about the camera on the rest set stuff which early haven't used at all in the past couple days that today I think that you guys want to see covered the for review be sure to leave them in the comments down below I'm John Reggie from technobuffalo please give the video a thumbs up we most definitely appreciate it and I'll see you in the next video alright what's up everyone John here thank you for watching the video if you enjoyed it I certainly hope you did click on the subscribe button right under me and my pants region to get tons more tech videos from TechnoBuffalo we've got awesome unboxings comparisons reviews recaps and everything else you can think of in the tech world right here on the channel join the hard today if you want to check out some more content just click right over this way to see some other recent videos see you guys next time
