ASUS Google Nexus 7 Android Tablet I'm considering purchasing this tablet to use strictly for Facebook and a couple games I play on Facebook. I don't think I really need the more expensive model as there were not that many changes made that I think...

Its fine for facebook. You can play some of the games from facebook, such as Candy crush saga. Some of the games though, such as Farmville that uses adobe flash, you can not play.

Well it is kind of slow for gaming on facebook. I play Cityville and it is slow on the chromebooks. Mine is the samsung 550 1.3 ghz celeron with 4gb of ram and it is kind of slow compared to my full blown laptop with 2.3ghz and 6gb ram. If your going to use it as a device to surf the web and do youtube and business stuff its pretty good. For gaming it doesn't do as good as i want. I also play Tradesfield stock game on facebook and it does that pretty good but not Cityville but i do play zcityville on the chromebook just alot slower.

Yes it is worth the money! It is way better than the nexus 7. I have two of the Ipad Air. I believe it is the best tablet out there by far! If you want to save money by the smaller memory one. The 16gb or 32 gb will do you well. Even at 16gb you have a Hugh amount of storage. The screen and speed are awsume!!!!

Mark, that's awesome. Great tablet and a superb price. Too bad you couldn't pick up three of them! ;)In case $250 is not longer an option, I just spotted the Transformer for $312 (shipped) at:http://www.hhgregg.com/asus-16gb-10-1-eee-pad-transformer-google-android-3-0-based-tablet/item/TF101-A1I don't know hhgregg but that's definitely a next-best price.-Matt

I believe the outside dimensions of the Nexus 7 are consistent with the specs you can get on Google whether the tablet is 8GB, 16GB, or even the new 32GB. The difference is all in the chips.

Mine came with the Google Play Store but it did not have FaceBook, Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, or Netflix. I had to download them myself from the Play Store. The tablet that I got was one of the last in stock, right after I received it most of the sellers that had it showed "out-of-stock". So I think the last ones they sold were probably rushed through to get them available and didn't get a lot of apps preinstalled. This is the only seller I've seen who still has them in stock. And naturally they're more money than all the others I saw. Mine was $77, this guy wants $90.

I switched to the Asus 7" a while back mostly because the is internet capabilities on the Klu are weak (almost nonexistent with WiFi). The Klu is not Android backed also. I would look for a used Asus or Samsung 7" for fifty dollars more. No frustrations.

The answers given are good. The only thing I will add is that if you're buying a used one. I've found it simpler to load Android onto the tablet from scratch rather than try and figure out what someone else has loaded and what versions they tried to load.

Sorry, I don't know--I only have a google nexus 7, but it works great on that except it runs off the tablet's battery, so it runs the battery down faster--unplug it when you're not actually using it.

Easy. Set up a return with Amazon and send it back. There are an insane amount of options for Android tablets on the market. This tablet is one of the worst. IMO, get a different one. Kindle Fire starts at $159, Google Nexus starts at $199.

I've had both Nexus 7 and the Tab Pro 8.4. Nexus 7 (2013) has had many issues with the touchscreen freezing and recording ghost touches while the screen on the Tab Pro 8.4 has a great touch, much better resolution. Also, I'm a fan of the split screen multitasking which you can't do in Nexus 7. The 8.4 inch size is great for watching videos and reading too. And obviously, Tab Pro is about 2-3 generations ahead of the Nexus 7 in terms of the processor.

Don't get this tablet. It's greatly outdated and you will be very unhappy. Buy a Nexus 7 FHD, I got rid of this tablet awhile ago and I don't miss it one bit.

I wouldn't waste your money and get a nexus way worth the money. I don't remember it being able to do that

I'm following my instincts too, I'm a good fan of android and this tablet is just another android appliance, so I will recommend you to follow any android instructive. Good luck...

wow guys thank you very much for the info!So, apparently Vagan 7 is the best custom rom. Is there any drawback compared to the official rom the tablet ships with?Thanx!

No , unfortunately , i was not satisfy , i bought but its very slow and you can not update it or downgrade OS , memory is limited to 512 , when you run whatsapp or tango or other applications the tablet will get very slow on startup and running.
