Nexus 7 now a "line of computers"

[edit]

I couldn't disagree more with this ridicule. The device got a revised version. There's not any more to it. Also, the existence of a separate article for the revised version is equally ludicrous. I hope this is all merged back together soon and moved to Nexus 7 as it should. --uKER (talk) 19:02, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously I accidently misworded it. But would not this be similar to how there is a page for iPad (1st generation), iPad 2, iPad (3rd generation), and iPad (4th generation)? Instead of them all being on the one page iPad. 19:30, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
What makes you think there will be more than two Nexus 7? No need to number them. --uKER (talk) 20:48, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I never said there will be more than two (it is highly likely though). It was just an example. Still, to avoid confusion, they should be separate. The current page for the Nexus 7 has the specs in the infobox. So it would make no sense to have the 2nd generation model on the same page. 05:57, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Regarding the revert back of [[1]], I believe the line of Nexus in general needs to be the main page, each device with it's own separate page. google nexus is that page we should develop more with prominent linking to each device (and their many versions).--bluebanzai (talk) 14:41, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Move Page?

[edit]

Now that the article Nexus 7 (2nd generation) is being kept, this should probably be moved to Nexus 7 (1st generation). Then the page Nexus 7 should be just about the line of tablets.

Regarding the revert back of [[2]], I believe the line of Nexus products in general needs to be the main page, each device with it's own separate page. google nexus is that page we should develop more with prominent linking to each device (and their many versions).--bluebanzai (talk) 14:42, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bluetooth version

[edit]

There has been a question about the version of Bluetooth found in this tablet. The official specs from Asus say it is version 3.0 (http://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/Nexus_7/#specifications). But websites that teardown tablets (http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+7+Teardown/9623/), have found that the tablet's wireless module is an AzureWave AW-NH665 (http://www.wpgholdings.com/news/detail/zhtw/product/12393). The AW-NH665 includes the Broadcom BCM4330 (http://www.broadcom.com/products/Wireless-LAN/802.11-Wireless-LAN-Solutions/BCM4330) chip inside of it. According to specs on the AW-NH665 and BCM4330, they are made for Bluetooth version 4.0 (to me it looks more like they can support 4.0, but that doesn't mean it can't support 3.0 depending on how it is built). Now some editors think this means the Nexus 7 (2012 version) has Bluetooth version 4.0, and this clashes with the Asus and Google specs that say it's 3.0. It seems like there is too much original research going on here (Wikipedia:No original research), and we need to stick with what has been published. And why if it is 4.0 would Google advertise something less? We need something that says specifically the Nexus 7 (2012 version) has version 3.0, and then we can change it. That's why I reverted it back to version 3.0.--Mangoman88 (talk) 00:18, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved. Jenks24 (talk) 10:29, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]


– There is no need to add the word 'version' to the article titles when the year of release alone is enough for disambiguation. The current title is unnecessarily long. sovereign°sentinel (contribs) 08:34, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

[edit]

Stop. There is no need for consistency between the article title and infobox title. See Sia Furler. The device was called the Nexus 7 without 2012 during its lifespan (it was discontinued before the release of the 2013 Nexus 7), and therefore "Nexus 7" is its common name. sst✈(discuss) 02:13, 21 November 2015 (UTC) Also, you told me to "look at the article title". The title says Nexus 7 (2012) without "version". Please check carefully. sst✈(discuss) 02:17, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nexus 7 2012 Android 5.1 lagging issues

[edit]

I edited text "In March 2015, the Nexus 7 was upgraded to Android 5.1, which fixes the lagging issues.[62]" to "In March 2015, the Nexus 7 was upgraded to Android 5.1, which a little fixes the lagging issues.[62] But device still unusable and more users downgrade to Android 4.4.4 or custom ROM.", but User:Y2kcrazyjoker4 revert my changes. I edit this text because his incorrect, Nexus 7 2012 in Android 5.1 still have lagging issues and device still unusable. I have this device and I tried everything I could (clear cashe, wipe device, install ROM from official instructions: Factory Images for Nexus Devices, dissable synchronisation and keyboard swyping & preview), but in 5.1 devise is still unusable. So I and many people revert to 4.4.4. or install other custom ROM, like CyanogenMod. if necessary, I will add references to users reviews after installing 5.1 update (4dpa, xda, google forums, etc.). PS: I new in wikipedia, and english not my native language, so maybe I did something incorrect, please help me. Mikhail Gribanov (talk) 06:14, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit was not sourced. You would need a WP:RS that supports it, otherwise your edit was in violation of WP:POV and WP:OR. Who says it wasn't fixed? What are the statics of people who downgraded? Without anything to back up the claim it cannot be on WP. - GalatzTalk 13:00, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, if I change text like that "In March 2015, the Nexus 7 was upgraded to Android 5.1, which a fixes the lagging issues.[62] But many users reported that the update did not fix performance problems. [sources here] Some users revert to Android 4.4.4 or install custom ROM like CyanogenMod [sources here]". And sources - Official Nexus Help Forum, Reddit: Nexus 7 (2012) - Android 5.1 and still unusable, Nexus 7 (Wi-Fi) getting Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update (read comments, some users back from 5.1 to 4.4.4), Nexus 7 Update To Android 5.1.1 Lollipop Is Full Of Bug Problems (tags contains also nexus 7 2012), Обновление до Android 5.1 Lollipop не решило проблемы в работе Nexus 5 и 7 (translation - Upgrade to Android 5.1 Lollipop has not solved the problems in the Nexus 5 and 7). PS: Please read all users message. They say that 5.1 is really faster 5, but only at the very beginning. A couple of weeks the device becomes unresponsive same as in Android 5. Mikhail Gribanov (talk) 10:51, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Those are message boards/forums. They would need to be from a WP:RS - GalatzTalk 13:35, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oh... If i record video where I install android 5.1 on my device and I have lags it's be a reliable sources? :) If many people say that 5.1 not fix lags, maybe this update realy not fix problem? Anyway, how about this source - Nexus 5 & 7 Still Facing The Same Issues After Android 5.1 Update ? Mikhail Gribanov (talk) 06:00, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
If you did that it would be WP:OR - GalatzTalk 13:21, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I added information and two reference. Unfortunately I could not find references to big and known sources (specifically for 5.1 update), but infromation is true. I and many peoples confrim the problem. Mikhail Gribanov (talk) 09:47, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I can support this view too; the device is stil very slow after 5.1 update. Users should consider a class action agains Google. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.92.19.36 (talk) 14:00, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Source?

[edit]

I spend 1 day finding sources for this imformation but can't:"According to Asus executive Benjamin Yeh, the idea for the Nexus 7 was conceived at International CES in Las Vegas in January 2012 during a meeting of executives from his company and Google. After agreeing to manufacture the device for Google as the OEM, Asus was tasked with building a tablet that could sell for US$200 and would be "fast, cheap, and good"" I am ITalk! 14:19, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
