yes, the leather case is quite nice. I love the smartcover. It cut down the usage of power button by a lot.

Yerp doesn't work, I think the cable got problem gua.

Prefer new because as Xmas gift for gf ,btw,still thinking this or blurex

where to buy blurex? it looks great too but much thicker than Nillkin. May want to get one along if you are getting it. Thicker is better for travelling. The slim Nillkin for using at home.

For Nillkin product, do find tskhor, highly recommended good seller with good after sales service.

Shirogawa have selling,but currently he no stock,eta end of the mth.saw at hotspot lyp rm129
but bluRex might hv some unconvinient point is when stand the case,need to unplug two snapper which i worry will trigger screen lift more serious...lol.as we knew N7 have screen lift issue...

Would have loved to grab it from you, but I'm on the 3g version. Think that case covers up some of the mics and sim card slot

Hmm if Shirogawa think it's the ultra-slim version, which looks roughly as thick as the Nillkin? Not the normal one

might wanna buy nexus7 16gb wifi, 2nd hand also can, anyone know which shop cheapest in penang, or anyone wanna cod with me?

penang ke bro? wanna sell mine but i'm in seremban...too bad....

btw anybody have prob with bt after update? my bt headphone sounds distorted...before this it was ok...

Totally agreed with you benny888. At first glance, the display is indeed poorer than my gt7.7..

Btw, just got my 7c from a computer shop in JB. they are having xmas promotion sale so i got it at a good price. going to sell my gt7.7.. not becos it's not better than n7 (in fact the display and other specs are much better than n7), but because it's a google device and can able to enjoy the latest updates of android from this tablet..

as i opened it up, noticed a few things:

1. it doesn't come with headphone?
2. poorer display than my samsung devices (even my S2), potong stim a bit of its wow factor.
3. the speed is so fast, i've never seen updating app can be so fast and smooth.. the scrolling is so smooth as well..
4. it was running 4.2 before it prompted to upgrade 4.2.1 which i did in just a few mins.

my initial verdict, so far so good!

Charging it now.. going to root it with nexus toolkit and tonight planning to hunt for cover, OTB cable and SP in JB. anybody knows any place i can get these in JB? Danga city mall?? i heard 7c and 7's cover are different due to the diff position of the mics and the extra sim card slot.

benny888, any recom custom rom for nexus?

hmm... planning to get a simcard with data plan only. any recomm?

a happy nexus 7c camper here..

Yup.

I believe main differences is the mic
1. used to be ontop case, no above power button
2. left side of tablet on moved lower to accomodate simslot

And:
3. obviously, the sim slot thingie

So, these 3 things seem to be on the left and right of tablet. Generally cases that cover up the sides with small cutouts based on old Nexus 7 will end up covering your mic/simslots. Which, can be annoying if u wanna use google voice or I suppose song recognition apps.

On the other hand, think some cases like the blurex ultra slim (mentioned somewhere here recently) doesn't cover up the sides much, so those should be fine

Hmm depends on your area wor. JB ka. If umobile works, that seems cheap. If not..maxis?

my Nexus 7 is lagging a bit .... any one has a solution?
currently using 4.2.1 non root

Using Nexus 7 3G... screen feels ok coming from an iPhone 4S.. light weight.. 1 handed operation. only problem is that i always press the power button when i am holding it.

and it charges very slow using 1A chargers or USB from a laptop..guess really need to use the wall charger.

but i cannot understand why cannot make GSM calls!? cannot send SMS..WHYYYYYYYYYY

Thanks ellimist. I know a bit more now..

perhaps tmr when i go singapore i can get the cover i want.

yeah was thinking either maxis or umobile.

Oh you're going SG, nice

Hmm not sure if they have that blurex ultraslim case, or think there's another one called "moko" ultraslim case. Those should work and are pretty nice, you can google em.

Wah maybe u should help us bulk also if got chun casing there, haha

Hmm... Thinking of Ipad Mini VS Nexus 7C.. i love the exterior hardware of Ipad Mini..screen...body...design.. but feel that IOS is limited. any advice here? I bring up hardware/build quality because i knew nex 7 has quality issues. Are these issues still existant in 7C ?

no idea what's a 7C, but my Nexus 7 3G (latest) have no build quality issues...just bought it last week, local Asus set.

What you're having is N7C

mind to share where you got the unit and what price? i intend to get one too.

You can send SMS, so long as your SIM or plan supports it. But you would have to install a 3rd party SMS app. I installed GoSMS on my 7C (i.e. 3G version) and it can send SMSes just fine. No need to root or anything. Oh, I am a Maxis broadband (data only) plan and using the broadband SIM.

As for GSM calls, sorry, no can do. Don't think you are able to do it even if you rooted it.
