sanctified Veteran Posted November 8, 2012 Veteran Share Posted November 8, 2012 I use tablets mainly to read. Got tired of iPad 3 (weighs a ton) and some users here convinced me to give the Nexus 7 a try. So far I'm very pleased! This thing feels like a feather, and Android, for the first time for me, runs like butter. Also Matano Reader is finally up to quality compared to Good reader. Cant ask for much more. Any app recomendations? Royalty 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajua Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Kindle is a must if you read books. My main apps are Pocket, Feedly, SkyDrive, Box.net, OneNote Mobile, Patterns (which I just tested, is great for wallpapers), Tweet Lanes (great Twitter client, lacks push notifications at this time, but is not important for me atm), Tweedle is another good Twitter client, TuneIn Radio, Pinterest, Fancy.... The Nexus 7 is a great tablet. I use it mostly for reading books but the performance and responsiveness of Android with Jelly Bean's Project Butter is great.

Growled Member Posted November 9, 2012 Member Share Posted November 9, 2012 I agree, Kindle is a must. I also use MXPlayer, Evernote, and IMDB. Plus I like the Dolphin browser because of all the addons that it has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvllsvm Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Try buying the latest Humble Bundle as it's also available for Android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taras Litowczuk Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 If you like to play games and also have a PS3 I would recommend getting the Six Axis app. Made playing GTA3 so much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patseguin Global Moderator Posted November 17, 2012 Global Moderator Share Posted November 17, 2012 I am new to Android too and also bought a nexus 7 and love it as much as you do. I find myself using it all the time and not my iPad. I got all the standard apps that I need like Bank of America, Facebook, and a bunch others. I also bought some games which run VERY good on the Nexus. I'd like to see an essentials list as all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
