I’ve posted a couple of reviews of covers for the Nexus 7 2 over the past couple of months. The first review was for the official Asus travel cover, and I didn’t like it very much at all. Things got better with the Snugg cover that I reviewed last month; it proved to be a […]

Last month I posted a review of the official Asus travel cover for the Google Nexus 7 2. Because of its cheap, flimsy design I didn’t like it very much, and now it just sits on a shelf gathering dust. As I set out to find a better cover, the folks at TheSnugg.com offered to […]

Right now no one is really sure what to expect from the Google Nexus […]

A few days ago I posted a review of a new 7 inch tablet called the Hisense Sero 7 Pro. I couldn’t help but keep comparing it to the Nexus 7 in much of the review because the two tablets are so much alike, so I thought I’d go ahead and put together this comparison […]

Yesterday I found myself over at the Project Gutenberg website and I came across something that I was not expecting to find on one of the oldest and most well-respected distributors of free public domain ebooks. At the top of the main homepage there’s a section titled “New Kindle Fire Review”. It says “Before you […]

For this comparison review I’m pitting the 7" Kindle Fire HD against the Google Nexus 7 to outline the main advantages and disadvantages of two of the most popular 7-inch tablets on the market.
