So I need to replace my Nexus 7 for school. Please recommend

>muh technology
Why don't you buy a real fucking book instead?

>>57672315
Why are you here

>>57672290
Just buy a X220.

Tablets are for faggots.

>>57672315
I prefer ebooks for a few reasons

1. I can have my entire collection on google play books. On my device and on the web
2. Along with that, I can highlight and take notes easily and have all of that on the cloud. I can also switch between chapters easily and literally search for all instances of a word or phrase
3. Backlight

>>57672350
Yeah I used to think the same, then I got the Nexus. I loved that thing.

>>57672361
There no good tablets right now. Manufactures realized that tablets are for faggots.

iPad mini

If you need Matlab and full desktop apps, Microsoft Surface

>>57672483
Already have an iPhone. I want an android tablet.

I don't need desktop apps, just preferably able to run sites in desktop mode with mouse support

Amazon Fire tablet is $33 right now. Can't really go wrong with that. You can flash an Android image to it if the Fire OS isn't for you.

>>57672667
It's not too strong though right? I'd want it to also have at least SD card storage space or at least 32GB.

I'm fine spending at most $200 honestly.

Google Pixel C

This. to the 10th power

1. How does does the Fire HD 8 compare to the Nexus 7 2013 in terms of power?

2. I can absolutely root it and put stock android on it?

3. Can I use A Bluetooth keyboard and mouse with it and is it powerful enough to type essays/read PDF's without lag? (Don't care about games)

>>57672902
just ordered one myself, and a Dot for my mom.

Even if I can't root it and flash something else on it, I will be happy with having something to use besides my worn out Nook HD+. Battery is about fucked on it, and shit runs like molasses now after my sister dropped it.

>Dot
Enjoy the botnet

Honestly, look into the Lenovo Yogabook. Full Windows 10, no bloatware, extremely portable and great for school, does everything you were used to and more, and despite its low power, it's more than what you were used to.

who cares? she's in assisted living. she's wanted one since she saw it on one of those home shopping channels, and I would rather get her something silly like that than have her whining about it till she croaks.

>>57672694
In that case, Lenovo Tab 2 might be to ur liking. Its $140/right now on some sites.

>>57672290
Why not just keep the nexus 7? Why does it need replacing?

(Sent from a Nexus 6)

>>57672290
The newest Nvidia Shield tablet. Your best choice.

>>57673173
This.

Used tab pro 8.4

>tegra SoC's that absolutely no one wants to develop for because they're 100% proprietary
>From a motherfucking Nexus to a locked down tegra
The only tegra you should ever buy is one with a chipset that's in a Nexus device.

Seriously can nobody recommend me a Nexus 7 2013 replacement that isn't insanely expensive (Galaxy Tab) or severely gimped (Amazon fire)

>>57673489
Just buy another Nexus 7. It can still do all the shit you want it to do.

>>57672290
>>57673489
What's your budget?

>>57672694
>>57673866
He said $200.

>>57673489
OP, do you want a 7" screen because I recommended this here which is 10" >>57673117

>>57673525
I think I decided on an NVidia Shield K1. Anything wrong with it? Does it not meet any of the specifications I want? (stock android, keyboard and mouse support)

>>57674033
Anon said it's a bitch to root. Might be right. >>57673296

I wouldn't buy one. Why don't u just buy a used nexus 7 from eBay in mint condition if u were so happy with it. Save u $100+.

>>57672290
>need
No.

How2Root every shield device ever:
>Unlock bootloader (This is done simply by booting into the bootloader and sending the "fastboot oem unlock" command.)
>Install custom recovery so you can flash custom zips
>Flash su binary zip
>Flash SuperSU zip
Done. Tegra devices are not locked down at all.
