I never thought of owning a tablet. Ever since my first smartphone (an HTC Nexus One), until my latest smartphone (a Samsung Galaxy Nexus), my media consumption and communication needs have been met. For more power and processor intensive activities like games or content creation, my desktop and laptop have done the job. This now brings me to the Nexus 7.
I was enticed into buying the Nexus 7 mainly by the price – at $250 or roughly PhP 10,000 after conversion, with an NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor and a beefy 4,325 mAh battery to boot, who wouldn’t want to buy this? Aside from the price, I was also considering a portable entertainment device because lugging around a laptop just to watch YouTube or surf on the net is not pleasurable.
After nearly 3 weeks of waiting, my order for the Nexus 7 finally arrived. Here’s my initial review after 3 days of playing with it.
Note: I bought this device for more than the PhP 10,000 estimate and I’m running stock Android 4.1.1.
