Yeah, I think w/o pocket is 19usd, with pocket add 6usd, then postage is about 8usd.
So if I bought myself would be more than rm100, haha.
*
but this is international postage right, would 8usd be enough? hahahaa

Was playing asphalt 8 on this new nexus 7 at high setting..lag wei 

Never thought it was that bad  doh.gif  doh.gif

Asphalt was ported over from iOS, and Gameloft has a bad reputation for porting games. So I wouldn't put the blame on the tablet. Other games like need for speed should fare fine

actually prefer nexus than ipad mini bro..its the best android tablet...what a shame for the issues.

its no biggie. So far I've yet to encounter any touchscreen issues on my N7.
How ironic that everyone demands perfection from a device that is able to deliver much more than what it is priced.

Hi guys and gals, wanna ask a bit about the battery.
My battery seems to be draining pretty fast, was 100% at about 330pm just now and now it's nearly 90% and it was left to idle. Is that normal? I'm using a lte unit by the way.

Also, it gets pretty warm after only a few minutes of use.

Hi, I have a LTE variant as well. If you check at Settings - Battery - History details(you click on the chart), you may find that "Mobile Signal" and "GPS" is constantly running.

If you are not using data, then I would suggest you to turn on Aeroplane mode, and then turn back on Wifi.
As for GPS, you can open up Location access, turn off "Access to my location" and then turn it back on, turn untick GPS as well. Somehow the GPS only completely turns off via this method, and sometimes you may need to give it a fresh reboot if the mention method does not work.

Some may say that GPS will only be used if you open apps which requires GPS, but then I am merely offering my advice, take it or not, it's your decision.

thanks for your great opinion..one more question~! I personally never use any nexus (pure android) before and i was wondering that the smoothness of this nexus 7.. is it buttery smooth and switching between apps is seamless?

coz i have played my sis ipad mini (iOS 6), it was smooth enough but once she upgrade to iOS7, it get lagged (which is a minus point for this).

really appreciated for your great opinion~!

Even the ipad gets hot after prolonged usage. These devices does not come with cooling fans, hence a little heat is of course expected.

In my personal opinion, in terms of android, nexus devices are the best experience you can get, in terms of fluidity and performance. I have instagram, facebook, and falcon pro running almost all the time, and while switching between tasks, the nexus 7 holds up to its name. Though it does show a longer delay while switching to more power hungry applications, such as games.

I was never a big fan of apple's ecosystem, but I must agree that it's speed was unmatched, until the recent update to iOS7, which seems to stutter all apple's devices.

Just to set somethings clear, rooting voids warranty, or does it void only when you flash kernel/rom?

Not to say I'm concerned, but just curious =)
