    Watching this on my Nexus 7 which has been in daily use since I bought it in June 2014. Rather surprised to see a picture of my home town at 0:39 !

    This video was meant to came out in August. But just before I was about to upload it, I got a community guidelines strike (second one) so I couldn't upload videos for a week. I was so unmotivated and disheartened by that, I forgot I had a video in the oven until now XD.
    If UA-cam keeps taking down my videos, I might have to open another channel or give up on youtube. It's so unfair because they took those two videos for unjust reasons. In both cases they claim my videos are 'harmful and dangerous' to others, as if I'm teaching people how to make weapons of mass destruction or something along the lines lol.
    Anyway, I appealed and literally 10 minutes later, UA-cam sends an email where they say they 'carefully' reviewed my appeal and kept the strike. You and me know it was a bot. Regardless, two more strikes and this channel is done for.

      @@LilCurlyBlonde I asked the same question, how is this content dangerous to others?
      I don't think it's other UA-camrs, it's just the inefficiency of UA-cam's appeal process.

    I was digging through my old stuff and I found my old Google Nexus 7. It was my first ever mobile device! It took an atrociously long time to recharge after finding it and its frame around the bezels were chipped away as I remember using it a LOT as a teenager. I used it as my main mobile device until I got the Galaxy S8 after graduating high school. Hard to believe the Nexus 7 came out 10 years ago!

    Just Bring my Nexus 7 2013 replace usb port from repair shop and it works again. I bought it last 5 years ago with second hand at Ebay cause i was poor to buy Ipad when i was studied. When it arrived,The condition was bad with dead pixel and usb charger not working. Almost return back but i do some research and buy daughter board and ribbon to repair. After that it works like charm. Lineage OS 14.1+ElementX perfect fit ever.

      Install a custom rom like lineage os 14.1 + Element kernel. If that's not enough, try disabling Google play services, though you won't be able to log into your Google account, but it'll make the tablet way better for gaming.

      It's still fully useable for basic tasks, they are fragile I've had 2 one broke multiple times one stayed strong, but the speakers do degrade over time and they weren't very good in the beginning, the speakers now are fully unusable for me.
