Hi all, yesterday I shot the video unboxing of latest Asus Nexus 7 32GB version.
If you are interested, here you are the link

In a few days I will post the full video review.
Let me know what do you think about it.

While I appreciate you taking the time in making a video, I really don't see the need or value in it.
There are already dozens (probably more) of Nexus 7 unboxings for the 8GB and 16GB models. The 32GB is identical in every way, outside of the internal flash chip. Nothing new to see.
Of course, you are right, there may be many others unboxing video about Nexus 7 in 16Gb and 8GB version.
Maybe someone hasn't seen them yet and wants to see directly the 32gb one.
Maybe I'm giving more technical specs than others, maybe not (did you see my video before this post?).
Maybe someone wants to know what version does this nexus come with?! Maybe not!
I shoot this video just for my pleasure (and I hope for someone else pleasure too!), at night ('cause I have a job and a family) and, most of all, without earining a single damn penny for it.
I'm sorry if I did bore you: next time maybe you can even just skip a thread like this if you are not interested!
Thanks
Too many unboxing videos and reviews also 32gb have nothing different specs wise except 16+gb. And yes there are 32gb reviews in YouTube already.

i watched it, and while we appreciate you doing the video its nothing new. maybe when u get that nexus 10 you should do another. unboxing videos are more for unreleased devices or devices everyone is waiting on and can't wait so watching youtube unboxing videos excites us. there isn't much to be excited about as most of us have nexus 7's already, in 8/16/32gb variants. but, thanks anyway
What's the difference of unboxing 32gb one from 16gb one other than the invisible on camera additional 16bg storage.
There's nothing new to see there sorry pal.

I tried to report as many technical specs as I could in the video. If you watched it, you can remember when I talked about the downclocked frequencies of the GPU. I haven't seen many videos having in deep review of technical aspects. Maybe someone could appreciate it, while someone else just doesn't care.
That's why I though that this unboxing could be interesting.
Anyway, no one is forcing you all from watching it if you don't care. I lost my sleep time for shooting these videos and it's not that nice reading some of you saying the video is useless without even watchin' it!

You seem to be missing the point. No one is attacking you for making the video. Everyone has been polite about the matter (except for you). What everyone is simply saying is, that there is no purpose in making an "unboxing" video for a product that was released 4 months ago. No one is going to watch it since everyone here already unboxed their own. The purpose of those types of videos is for when a product first comes out, so people who haven't picked theirs up yet, or are on the fence about buying one, can see what it's all about. And while your video might have some more technical information in it, most people on XDA are already well familiar with the specs and details. And the fact that it has 32GB is irrelevant. It's like making a duplicate car test drive video for a new model that has a different A/C filter in it.
Lastly, if all you wanted was positive feedback, you probably shouldn't have posted anything on the Internet in the first place.
"Useless" = every post in this thread except the OP.
OP: it's better to just ignore these comments and not respond. Thanks for the video.

Am I asking you for a positive feedback? Can you please point me where?
I'm open to any possible feedback, when the feedback it's a constructive one.
I don't think I've been unkind or unpolite in any ways. Instead, I do think it's unpolite and even unfair to judge someone else video without even watching it. As well as it's unpolite (and not only) to believe to be representative of a whole community. Do you think XDA is made up only of skilled people? Do you think the whole XDA members live in Us?
I do perfectly know what does an unboxing video means as well as I know Nexus 7 was announced in June and went on the market middle July in Us and Australia. But maybe you don't remember that not every country has Nexus 7 yet, or that maybe in some others it went on sale later (here in Italy nexus 7 @16GB started being sold on late September/ beginning of October, while Nexus 7 @32Gb will start at middle November).
Having these thoughts in my mind and considering that I tried to be as more technical as I can, I just though that this unboxing could be useful to someone, if not, I'm not forcing anyone in watching it.
Thanks for your constructive feedback anyway.

this, was the most useless. the OP asked "tell me what you think". so everyone did, in a pretty polite way. this thread should just be locked. its a 3-4 month old device. no one is dying for the device to be released or leaked photos, its been out. not to mention he already opened the device, took off the plastic, and just put it back in to make a video. should be called a nexus 7 review video, not a unboxing.

People who have issue with the video, why don't you guys just skip it. As per your logic there are several flavors of AOSP roms, and people should stick with only one and rest of the dev simply call it a day. If you guys cannot appreciate someone's work then don't criticize is either.

I've recently noticed some people reporting that their tablets are exhibiting a couple issues including light leakage, bezel separation among others. I want to get an even sample rate so that my findings are not biased, so I have setup a form.
even if your tablet is perfectly fine, please fill it out. i still have a few questions for you.
If you would like to help me you can do so here

Perhaps you should add whether the model was the 8GB or 16GB to see if they're are quality control differences.
Good idea for trending and seeing what "really is going on in userland". I'm filling out, but will be returning mine for a hopeful replacement due to a dead pixel and some slight screen flashing.
Done....hope my input help.

Just got mine in Portugal (courtesy of Ebuyer UK, Borderlinx + DHL).
It's flawless, really. I have no screen issues whatsoever (no bezel separation or raised display, dead pixels and leakages of any kind). I've always been lucky with my gadgets.

Nice thread! Where do you post the results?
Problem on a thread like this - the ones with problems are many times more likely to see this thread and submit. Thus making it hard to get an accurate statistical probability for each problem.
May want to include a spot for Serial Numbers to see if it was a bad batch or if it is QC...

True, the stats will be a little misleading. Not to mention the other 90% (that's a stab in the dark) who don't post on this site at all. Still think its a great idea though.

Watched most of the review and agree with basically everything this guy is saying. The Nexus 7 is a great device and well worth the cheap, cheap price tag.
But, let's see if we can't do something about the length of the video?

I will probably do a 'lite' version of the review at some point.
nice Review ty
My only complaint would be that it wasn't quite as in depth as I would have liked. However considering the limited amount of time you had to cover the whole subject, I think you did well to fit it in. I look forward to a more in depth review in the future.

That's why I love Google and hoping my heart will never be broken.
Look at those guys on the video! They are so cool, speaking with such humility and Never ever comparing their work to some other contender. I like that and i feel comfortable buy their devices and using their services.
With such prices I can't complain much about the lack of sd slot or removable battery.

It's an OK review but the dude just keeps saying how much he loves everything, it's starting to annoy me.
I stopped watching when the reviewer ask why did Google put quad-core in N4 when they only put dual-core A15 in N10.

so because he didnt know that much about android means its a bad unboxing? it was his first time using 4.2..

I wasn't expecting a happy ending - that would have been insulting.
But, it should have been done better. It's like we've spent the last 7 years getting to know someone inside out, and then they change in the last 5 minutes of the show into something completely different. Is anyone else reminded of Anakin's 5 minute journey to The Dark Side? It was just badly portrayed.
Apparently though, the last series was meant to span over at least 2, which is where the rumours about it having another series to go came from. They did cram in too much story and that spoilt it.
The last series was rubbish for me. It pretty much killed my appreciation for what had come before.

Maybe they crammed too much story that's why people were expecting a somewhat different ending. I feel that the reason why he succumbed into seclusion was because of his very nature. We know Dexter as the person who is known for taking decisions no one could.
But I agree to the point that they did cram too much story in last season. Though it's disappointing to see him like that but he could not have done anything else accounting to his very character.
