Ten years ago today, Google released the 2nd-generation Nexus 7, just days after a surprise announcement. Back then, Android tablets still felt fresh and exciting. It seemed like anything was possible, and things could only improve from there. Well, we know what happened next. But the depressing state of the tablet market to come was in no way the fault of the Nexus 7. In fact, this is still one of the best Android tablets ever made, and it’s worth looking back and showing it the honor and respect it deserves.

    Ugh yes, I have been talking about it ever since, I got an 8inch cheap Chinese tablet to use as an e reader and it’s ALMOST the same size (and almost the same specs lmao) the only reason I’m not used my nexus 7 is usb c on this on and I soft bricked it trying to put a lightweight OS on it 😢
