Nexus 9

Bespoke Offers has come back with £188, and TCB are giving 17% Cash Back making it £157...

Edit: oooh, a white one is £185 so even cheaper.

And the white looks better too. Got my mum one earlier in the year.

Skeeter · 29 Sep 2015 at 20:49

Yeah pulled the trigger on a white one. GF gave me permission

, and it makes up for not managing to justify a new phone at the moment.

Time to throw the old, slow Nexus 7 in the bin.

Can anyone recomend a nice, simple, cheap sleeve slip case for the 9? The Adore June one looks good.

Temped to pick one of these up (Upgrading from iPad Mini 1st Gen), just wondering what the standby time is like?

Been thinking of getting a tablet again was going to go for something like the Galaxy Tab s2. But dont think I can stomach paying that much.

What is the Nexus 9 like? See it £179 at Argos at mo.

I like the look of the S2 myself, but had to remind myself not to buy Samsung products due to TouchWiz.

However from video reviews it looks like TouchWiz is smoother and faster on this device then previous messes.

Nah touchwiz is still fugly and slow to update.

Will be stellar in a week when Marshmallow lands.

These gained a bad rep on android 5.0 but I got one a few months ago on 5.1 and it's been stellar tbh. £179 at Argos is a steal, considering Google's next tablet is going to be more of a powerhouse and likely > £400. I reckon these nexus 9s are set to fill the casual market for the next year and the price will probably settle at around £250

Was offshore last week, and had left the tablet at my parents house, on a full charge. It was still on 10 days later, with 4% battery, which I thought was pretty good.

need a replacement for the nexus 7 - last update killed it for doing anything

these good?

I don't do much fancy with it tbh but would prefer stock android, any major flaws for streaming music via bluetooth or chromecast?

If you can live with 16gb then go for it. Use bespoke it will give you around 8% off and quidco offers 18% cashback so in the end it will be under 140.

POB · 30 Sep 2015 at 16:28

Grabbed one.

Going to use it when I want to take a tablet somewhere but not have to worry about the value of the £1000+ Surface Pro.

SuperOwl86 · 30 Sep 2015 at 17:29

Just got my offer from bespoke and its 5.3% saving making it £170.43. Still undecided if to go ahead or not.

Cheers... Waiting on my offer...

Noooo!! I ordered one at £199 yesterday!

Quick, cancel cancel cancel!

How the hell do you cancel a Bespoke Offers order? Theres no record of it on my account?

Skeeter · 1 Oct 2015 at 11:15

Sweet, managed to cancel my previous order and then make a new one using the £179.99 Argos price.

Bespoke offers came back with £165, and £31 cash back has been tracked through TCB. Nexus 9 White 16GB for £134, win!

I've just picked this deal up to, 17.17% cashback is only for a few more days. I would have liked to get the 32gb model. But it's mainly for my wife to use to watch youtube videos, so it should manageble.

Does anyone know what delivery times are usually like through bespoke offers?
