*** Nexus 7 2nd Gen thread ***

Just got mine! The device is very well built, feels very nice to handle and that display looks really good!

I can confirm that the wireless charging works with my Nokia wireless charger :)

Very nice man :) question.. as the resolution is 1980x1200, how does it translate to movie playback which is typical 1920x1080... black bars or not?

Yes small black bars for 1080p material. Depending on your video player you can zoom in a little and go full screen with no noticeable loss of IQ.
 
Right I have Toy Story 3 that is 1920x1080 and I have Inception that is 1920x800
I will transfer both and see if I can do an internal screenshot and then post them up if not I will try to get decent pics with the mobile.
Give me about 20 mins as I will have to transfer them over.
 
Fair enough. How are you finding the speed of the tab and are you impressed with the speakers?

Speedwise it is very fast and smooth, I think I would go as far as it's probably the fastest and smoothest Android device I have used.
Speakers are a huge improvement over the 1st gen Nexus 7, they are nice, loud and sound clear on the highest level.
 
Very true but I thought I might as well do it so people who can't have access to the Nexus 7 2013 model can see how it looks on the device, as pictures are better than words.

Only a very small frame at the top, you can barely see it from the picture, films have bigger frames top and bottom, unless it's imax, but that's to be expected unless 800p as mentioned.

The screen is awesome and I can browser full page website without zoom.

I've installed Paranoidandroid and everything is working great. Need a bit more customation so need to wait for PacMan ROM.

Did experience a screen flickering problem, but only happened once.

Do have a slight fault with my device, the power button is slightly wonky.
