I love my android phones (Galaxy Nexus and my old Droid Incredible), but the one major thing that has always bugged me is how HTML emails don't fit on screen. Scrolling around in the email just to see everything is a major pain. Does Apple have a patent on resizing emails?
Anyway, how do HTML emails look on the Nexus 7? Do you still have to scroll around or do they usually fit on screen?
On my phone I often accidentally go the next or previous email by trying to scroll left and right respectively. So yes, it's a pain!

So how do the emails look on your 7? Do they fit on the larger screen, or do you still need to scroll around?

Having just tried a few I still have to scroll around on my n7. Nowhere near as much scrolling but still scrolling nonetheless. Before you pointed it out I wouldn't have noticed how annoying it is!

Around the notification bar area, touch the screen hard. Does your screen feel like its clicking in like the blackberry storm? I have a problem and I'm wondering if it's only me

Mine doesn't do that.
Are you pressing down?

Yeah, not super hard, as I don't want to break it. But a lot harder then I would be if I was trying to use the touch screen or buttons.
If I were you I'd go to best buy and ask to play with the demo. Try it on the demo, if it doesn't happen, exchange yours.
Thanks for the advice

Did you try it with the screen off or on because mine seems to do it when on only
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Mine does NOT click or feel like it's clicking when touching (moderate pressure) the notification bar area (right, left or center), with the screen on or off.
None of the three Nexus S handsets I've gone through so far have done that. Take it back. Samsung's QC needs a lot of work.
Thanks alot for the replies guys. I'll be exchanging it
I unfortunately just realized I have this problem,right near the FCC woohoo 3rd nexus s
yea it sucks tell me how your exchange goes

Sure thing. Its dissappinting that you pay $530 for a phone and I has quality problems
Just got a nexus s 4g yesterday. Like it so far. Bit when I woke up this morning the screen looked like it was a much lower resolution. Looks like little dots on every line etc.
Grabbed my wife's evo and her icons look much smoother as I can not see this on hers at all.
Anyone else see anything similiar? It kind of looks like stipulation if that makes any sense (using colored dots to make a picture).
Any comments ate appreciated.

If you look very close at the screen it looks pixilated but from a decent distance it should look great, I had an evo before the nexus and IMO the nexus screen is worlds better than the evo.

That's how amoled screens are. Read up a little on the difference between LCD and amoled and you'll see that the amoled has less pixels, making it less clear than LCD.

I am new to this type of screen so just wanted to make sure my phone was OK. Thanks for the input guys and if you have any links to send please do.
P.s. I read the previous AOMLED screens were worse due to sub pixel layout.

Ours does use the worse pentile matrix sub pixel layout. Its the newer SAMOLED Plus that doesn't.

So I just sold my Acer a500 with hopes of getting 32gb nexus 7. But my gf raised a point of, is it worth it since your phone is already almost 5 in. So does anyone else have a large screen phone an still enjoy an think their nexus 7 is worth it? My dad offered me his transformer prime for $300 so now I'm thinking about that since its way improves over my a500.
I really just use my tablet for web browsing an viewing power points an documents for college. So, do you guys think its worth it if you have a large sized screen phone?

Yeah I have a sgs3. I held the 7 last night an the screen looked very nice an fit well in the hand. Just worried about downgrading to 7 from 10 in. But for what I used my Acer for, the 7 seems like it will be fine. Just like I said in my post about it being not "too" far off from my sgs3 4.8" screen.

For me personally the N7 is too small for web browsing, I don't like to zoom in and out all the time. I think that 8-9' is the perfect size, but I don't see Google making it anytime soon, so I'm going to buy the N10 as soon as its available.

There was no WiFi at Walmart where I had it so I couldn't try web browsing. So I can't really comment on zooming in an out. On my 10" Acer I still had to zoom in an out browsing the web. Though it depended what orientation I had it in. Landscape I could read as is, but portrait I had to zoom in a lot.

Hi all
Apparently you can swipe between pages in chrome on nexus 7 but for the life of me I can't get this to work, anyone else have trouble doing this?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
Start from off screen and swipe in, otherwise it will think you are just trying to pan around the current page.
Yeah swipe from the very edge. Also you don't need to swipe. Just move your finger from the very edge towards the centre of the screen as fast or as slow as you like to swipe through multiple pages.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
Nah not happening for me, think it's because mine is in a case and covers the edge

I say bin chrome and install the stock browser, go into settings>labs and switch on the quick controls. Really smart, it gives you full screen internet, and you get your controls by gently moving your finger in from outside of the screen border. It's really smart, and quick once you're used to it.
That and the fact that it loads pages noticeably a good bit faster than chrome...

This is the main advantage of the iPhone for me, feels like a more connected experience.
If this was solved for the N4 I'd get one straight away without waiting till May 15th..

The aosp browser and dolphin browser are wicked smooth and responsive for me.
I don't have any noticeable lag in dolphin but I'm not filming myself at 120fps and then slowing it down to find out.

I think it's just hard to show on video at a normal frame rate. When I drag the notifications bat down on my galaxy note there is considerable touchscreen lag compared to if I was using an iPhone, the screen is always trying to play catch up and doesn't do a great job of it.
It was filmed using an s3 which i thought would be comparable to the N4. If this is solved on the nexus then great!

On idevices, the web page is like glued on fingers, especially when you zoom, on android, there is like a micro delay, but its not a problem at all.
Tapalked with a Nexus⁴
When you open and close the statut bar fastly, you can see this delay, If you enable "show touch" under developer setting, you see that the cursor isn't under you finger when you move et. But you see this delay if you move fastly and on in long surface (when opening the statut bar from the top to the bottom of the screen)

This is a good example of what I'm taking about. If you swipe down the notification bar of an iPhone and then an android device then you'll see what I'm talking about.

If that's a big deal breaker tho. Then just stick with iOS ?
Their is multiple things iOS & Android have superior to each other.
To me it's really not a big deal. Yet hardly noticeable!
Sent from my Nexus 4
I catch the drift, but still its something I can't notice during normal operation. If its that big of an issue I would stay with iOS then. Why not just use your phone instead of trying to do every operation as fast as humanly possible?

I've got a Galaxy Note and have never had an iOS device, but whenever I try one that is the one thing that I envy. The whole experience just becomes more connected. The nexus 4 might be closer in terms of the iPhones screen latency, but the Galaxy Note is a mile away.

I know what you are talking about, although I would put it under general responsiveness, and on every other android device I've owned it's been noticeable...it just isn't on the n4.
The N4 is a lot better than the S3 in the video you showed. It's still not as smooth as iOS but it's definitely not noticeable at all unless you're specifically looking for it. Oddly enough, pulling down the notification tray is actually a lot further behind the finger for me than the browser, but I usually just flick from the top to pull it down rather than a full swipe anyway.
The nexus 4 is Noticeable faster & smother than My friends Note 2.
But the nexus is the only android I haven't had issues with . like this process has stopped unexpectedly etc
