help Google Nexus 7 FAQ
Was the 2013 Google Nexus 7 made by HTC?
No. Both generations of Nexus 7 were developed with Asus, while HTC later manufactured Google's Nexus 9.
How can I tell the 2013 Nexus 7 from the 2012 model?
The 2013 model has a sharper 1920 by 1200 display, stereo speakers, and a 5-megapixel rear camera that the original lacks. It is also slimmer and uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro rather than the first model's Nvidia Tegra 3.
Can the Nexus 7 still run current Android apps?
Official updates ended with Android 6.0.1, so many current apps no longer support it or perform reliably on its aging hardware. Enthusiast ROMs can install newer Android versions, but unlocking and flashing introduce security and stability tradeoffs.
