As you can see, as much of the same. Perfect in portrait mode, totally inadequate horizontally. What is all this important? Is it so difficult to rotate the device by use? Can you lock the screen rotation? Yes, no, yes.
The problem with this format is its bipolarity, extremism. The Archos N7 could be an old and limited to play mp4 and others. It could be a 16:10 and the office work could be 4:3 and serve around a bit, like the iPad or the BQ. They chose the most extreme form of something, for something …
And here comes another lame leg, that something. Today, the N7 is a born consumer content, mainly of the owner, Google. Watch movies, videos, music, Youtube and others, is a joy.
But here comes the problem, when removed from Google ecosystem becomes insufficient, powerless. Why? Basically by the limitation imposed by the display both in their size and the ratio, and the absence of specific apps sonrojante. It is already clear that 7 “16:9 format is not to create content, especially the office, is tedious and complex, uncomfortable.
can supply it with an external keyboard and upright, but for these assemblies, if they are to be common, perhaps an iPad, one of Microsoft Surface and even a laptop, more convenient. And if the tablet itself difficult to create content, it torpedoed the OS directly. You can create and manage with Google apps, especially with Google drive and the integration of services already offered (possibly the best on the market), lean on evernote / dropbox / pocket / feedly / quickoffice, but there just quality and supply we encounter reality, no applications designed for Android tablets. We talked abo ut a few hundred, maybe a thousand, but not hundreds of thousands as in the case of iOS.
This can be supplemented through the Android share feature, to versions of thousand Web services as well supports the Chrome browser, a delight-the ability to move and manage files … It can patch, but not ceases to be uncomfortable for many users, perhaps the majority, who do not know and / or do not want to complicate your life in this way. You can dip into apps for smartphones, which are rescaled to N7 screen, but this brings many problems, such as screen sensitivity problems, descuadres in design, etc … They are clearly things that worsen the user experience and him from the Android market for tablets, beyond other considerations such as dependency of Gmail, price, etc. …
operating system itself, when you look at the N7, you discover that not conceived thinking of a use in tablets and after several updates, I still think the same . That differs from something as basic as the curtains of notifications / settings bar on his brother smartphone makes clear that improvises in design, there is no clear direction is respected to the letter.
smartphone, a simple finger slipped from the top down notices and displays you the same gesture with two fingers, access to adjustments. In the tablet, notifications are displayed with a finger from top to bottom on the left side of the screen and the settings the same way but running his finger along the right side. Inconsistent.
landscape mode on the N7 main home with an inconsistent distribution of menu icons also makes clear that we have something improvised or impossible to control because of the large number of brands, screen sizes, resolutions, ratios and densities that swarm the Android market.
Android 4.3 Is it then a disaster N7? Not at all. In addition to the fluidity and speed of any Nexus, Android sharing menu, freedom to customize it to your taste, move files, to enjoy the most complete ecosystem of any mobile platform -Android/Chrome – in addition to all this, you have a gem that no one else has, profiles. What are profiles? Just as on a pc / mac, the ability to create different users full function access to the tablet and its apps, or create profiles that manages administrator restricted in a completely full giving or removing permissions / access completely individual so . It is the perfect solution to the problem of households with one tablet-or limited-economy and several different potential users based on age, needs, uses …

Another aspect that I loved and cared about me from my previous Nexus 7 is autonomy. At rest is slightly below a mini iPad, the industry benchmark, but in use with the screen on, is on par and even above.
And all this with a smaller battery compared to the previous version of the tablet, the year 2012. Great job with the optimization feature Google Nexus series and great job with Qualcomm S4 processors.

Conclusion
Tablet excellent, unbeatable quality / performance vs. price, but not suitable for everyone. All those who are among the mere consumers of media content and advanced users with solutions to all possible problems / limitations, sometime find troubles on an Nexus July 2013, with limitations that worsen your user experience with lack of apps or scaled / redesigns infamous, with anarchy own Android platform. Difficult to solve when the problem comes from a bad approach.
shame because the N7 is an extraordinary product.
