what's the best note app with a great widget ?

I think Awesome Note is very nice but it is exclusive to Samsung devices at the moment.

The new Nexus 7's speakers are really awesome - loud and clear - much better than the first Nexus 7 and Tab 7.7. thumbup.gif Love the new material on the back too, very nice to touch and hold. It is very much like the HTC Desire finishing.

i find that firefox on the nexus 7 scrolling isn't as smooth. looking for an alternative browser. i like how firefox switches between tabs as it utilize the whole screen. don't really like chrome. tried dolphine too

Its sad that Google screw up the 2nd gen Nexus7 again. I thought they have learn from 1st gen problems. Imagine the sales volume would have been high if they have clean up their act. Many are holding back their purchases including me. Lets hope all issues will be fix soon.  smile.gif

Dun think the problem is so serious. Both my first and second gen N7 is problem free so far...touchwood.

hi, i plan to get the new nex7 with 3g function....but before that i want to confirm one thing... as the nex7 does not comes with call function for old . new model.... any custom rom manage to convert it to phone? or the call function is hard ware dependent ? i just think if can flash with phone function that it will be an bonus feature although i don think i will use tablet as phone anymore.
*
dun think the first gen can be modded to make calls. Since you are not going to use it as phone, why bother by this anyway. sweat.gif Just get a Samsung Note 8.0 if deep inside your heart, you think you will need to make some phone calls with it someday somehow.

hahaha..... not at all for note 8 actually. like nex7 cause the res  / spec / upate feature. i don need pen.

haha.. just teasing you. Your mindset is typical potential buyers' mindset - try looking for issues, problem, or some nitpick features, etc., like some bros mentioned in the earlier pages of this thread.

Once you bought it, then only you realise why you do not buy it earlier. biggrin.gif

Btw, i actually din notice there is any improvement on the screen reso compared to first gen, placing the 2 side by side. But after using it for about 2 weeks, i pick up my first gen Nexus 7 again yesterday night then only i realised the first gen screen is kinda grainy - can notice the lower res screen effect now. tongue.gif

Received my Nillkin case from tskhor today. 99% same as Asus original case but only half price. thumbup.gif It feels thinner and the texture smoother than the Nillkin case for first gen N7. Has auto sleep function too.

definitely buy from SenHeng as they have 2year warranty

SenHeng will get the stock this week? Bought the 32GB WiFi and thinking of getting another N7 LTE and sold the older 2012 32GB WiFi.

Similar thoughts as well for me

coz i will sign up for the Maxis RM15 Surf & Share to utilise my wife's 3GB data quota. She doesn't use much data but I normally max out my Surfmore 75 5GB quota. laugh.gif

With Note 3 kinda warm even not in Mobile Hotspot mode, I think getting the cellular version of the N7 is a much better choice than using the Note 3 to tether. But most importantly, someone want my 2012 Nexus 7 32GB. tongue.gif

Is the Nexus 7c (2012) 32GB version with HSPA+ mobile data at rm799 worth to buy, compare to the latest N7  at rm1229?
*
RM799 is not bad at all. I have both models - the only noticeable different is the much better screen and slimmer and lighter profile. But the 2012 screen is not too bad either.

Anyone having issues of dead pixels on the 2013 N7 or dust underneath the screen? There seems to be a problem on this from what I read from other forums

Nexus 7 II LTE is a great device. I wanted it long time ago but it wasn't released that time... By the time it was released, it came at the same time as Note 3. Since I will need additional phone that supports calls and etc. when I'm in overseas assignment soon, I bought Note 3 instead.

It is a good piece of device and will not hesitate to recommend anyone who is looking for a tablet to go for Nexus 7 2013. Extremely well-worth for the money spent.
*
yes, can't agree more. Got a wifi version from US bulk in garage during the launch and just got another local set with LTE last week. Has been using the LTE version naked with just simple leather sleeve for the past few days. It is really slim and light. Using it to surf and youtube more than my Note 3. thumbup.gif

Maxis just activated my secondary sim under the Share n Surf plan i applied last Thursday, super long time taken - full 4 days of waiting. shakehead.gif

i experienced it once. Also experienced screen frozen once. Need to press
power button for 30 second for it to work again. These things will happen
occasionally.

No such issue in both my wifi and lte version. Something wrong with some of the apps you installed i think.

is superbuy always late in delivering item? order mine on sunday. today check status, still ready to ship. @.@.

shoot them an email, it might speed things up. I ordered and paid mine on Monday last week, shot them an email Wednesday to ask why it is not shipped yet and they promptly replied the item will be sent out that day. And item received by me the next day, i.e. last Thursday. So only 4 days from i ordered and paid till i received the item.

But my Note 3 accessories are not so fast. They did send an email to inform the shipment will be delayed though.
