I had the nexus for at least 2 mos. I thought it will benefit me for being 7 so compact rather than always with ipad 3.

Ok, I had fun with it specially with the games. Browsing web not so much.

The reason why I returned it is when I'm playing hardcore games like dead trigger and shadowgun the 7 took really a beating.. Graphics is fantastic but my god my hands are getting warm and the device looks like it will explode. It eats a lot of battery too.

Now the mini.. Same game. Man, it's perfect. I can't really see the difference. Amazing device and not even getting warm.

I really don't care at this point on retina display. Watching Netflix. Games, video. No big deal.

I'm typing at the same time plex is airplaying via Apple TV and streaming 1080p on 52" TV.

Fantastic device!
