Flash back 4.4.4 lar imo. I don't think N7 can tahan LP.

By right it should, think it's that flash memory problem. I'll hang on to it for a while, lazy to reinstall my stuff.

A lot. Without the movies, around 18gb used up by apps and **** lol.

Anyone with N7 2012 and 2013 or used both before? Any comments on the performance of one compare to the other?

The biggest upgrade is the sharper image and processes faster. I have both. What kind of performance are you looking at?

If u have N7 2012 u should realize the lag is terrible, it's really terrible!!! When it's fast it's fast, like nagivation screen is very smooth. Evidently when using Chrome the lag is horrible, sometimes the keyboard takes like 5-secs to appear when i wanna type.

Sharper image is cos it's a FHD screen for 2013 right?

I have only 1 tablet. At the moment i dun see the need for an extra tablet for the cost but i do find having a tablet freaking useful.

Cos the N7 has no microSD so i got the 32gb and a 3G one.

Both of mine also 32GB. The thing is I don't have so much files on them both so if I were to compare, the 2013 model is definitely better in terms of screen and upgrade of 2GB ram. Imo, tablets have decent processors nowadays but at least must have 2GB ram otherwise bound to lag.

I use Chrome on my 2012, no issues for me on f2fs but then again, I only have max 2GB worth of applications(excluding OS).

It would be better to install the applications in internal than microsd imo. Worse comes to worse, OTG plugged in all the way.

Just a check, if i flash it to f2fs i can flash back the official firmware and there won't be any known issue except better performance right? Yeah i realize need 2GB to be safe, although now with lollipop the free ram is usually around 400mb, which is pretty amazing. And as much as people say tablet don't need camera, i still feel having 1 rather decent one is still important for impromptu capture or scanning barcode.

No. If you flash to f2fs, you can only use f2fs roms. There's a few 5.0.2 f2fs roms for our model. If you don't like it, you can always flash back to EXT4.

Oh yikes. I'll do it when i get a new tablet and don't mind bricking my N7 then. If it turns out to be speedy, i'll use it as a clock lol.

I'm intending to use it as a music player at home in my room. My Creative T3 have been sitting in a corner ever since I upgraded to studio monitors so I wouldn't wanna brick my N7.

Problem is, the pogo dock ain't cheap and everytime I bid, always kena outbid in Ebay.

If that's the case, sell away the dock loh. Now the dock is like an Ipod Classic, limited edition because they EOL.
