Pros: Nexus 7 is a super high resolution tablet which supports 2.3 million pixels by packing 323 pixels into every inch. It provides a very crisp display which does not disappoint in the slightest. It has an amazing battery life lasting up to 10h with multimedia. The quad core processor makes the device slick and responsive and one does not experience even the slightest stutter.

Cons: Nexus 7 is difficult to hold since the screen has been blended into the sides after shrinking the bezel. Its lacking a micro SD card slot and comes only in 16 and 32GB options. The storage available after the OS installation in the 32GB model is around 26GB, which is too less. The display of the device is fabulous but the colors are slightly inaccurate.

Talking Points: The new Nexus 7 is a welcome improvement. It does cost a little more but is still, despite being launched in 2013, one of the best tablets. The new version is slimmer and lighter, making it more portable. The new version even sports a 5MP rear camera, which was a much missed feature in its predecessor.

Conclusion: Nexus 7 is one of the best tablets available in the market in terms of performance and affordability. It is not as good as an iPad mini but people who do not fancy the IOS can totally go for this device. Amazing performance and a premium design at such an affordable price make it an option one cannot ignore.
