Nexus 9 review

Google Books PDF Test: Nexus 9

Finally!
NexusBB2001
The Nexus 9, as I encountered it.
NexusBB2002
One-handed grip is possible.
NexusBB2004
The focus is off, but I was surprised at how thin it was.
NexusBB2005
Does it feel cheap? Let’s just say it doesn’t feel like $399. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 feels like money. See where my thumb is? That front edge is a bit sharp.
And we get right down to it:
NexusBB2007
Foxit Mobile PDF being downloaded directly from the Play Store.
But first I tried reading the PDF via streaming from Google Docs …
NexusBB2012
… the experience was miserable. The Best Buy store WiFi was jammed. I did a video of this but it’s not worth posting.
This joint, to grab the test PDFs:
NexusBB2015
How fast the site pulled up was amazing.
Something went awry in downloading. The iOS version of The American Magazine was unsuccessful:
NexusBB2020
Ignore the camera sensor interference pattern. I didn’t bother to smooth it with a filter.
I hogged the shit out of that Nexus 9. A fellow kept passing by to see if it was free. No damn way was I going to give it up when these downloads were taking so long! The near-300MB version of The American Magazine took about a half hour — that’s how overloaded the Best Buy WiFi was. But I was determined to do this damn test!
For the hell of it, I decided to try Adobe Reader too. Because it was already installed. And I was going to use that damn Nexus 9!
Adobe Reader and The People of the Abyss:
Adobe Reader and Surface Japan:
Adobe Reader and the full version of The American Magazine:
All of that? Pretty miserable. Adobe needs to optimize its software.
Now Foxit Mobile PDF.
Foxit Mobile PDF and The People of the Abyss:
Foxit Mobile PDF and Surface Japan:
Foxit Mobile PDF and the full version of The American Magazine:
That was breathtaking! The Nexus 9 with Foxit kicked the ass of the iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 with Surface Japan!
And the rendering of the full version of The American Magazine was the fastest I’ve yet encountered!
That 64-bit Tegra K1 CPU combined with Android 5.x is a freakin monster!
I didn’t expect that level of performance from an Android device at all.
I was so stunned that after these tests, I went and looked at other tablets for a while (not doing tests, just light pawing) and then went back to the Nexus 9. I opened The American Magazine again and acted as if I was reading it. Paging normally. And damn, it still blew away everything else. It wasn’t my imagination or a hallucination. It’s not 100% of what I want, but it’s up there at between 90-95%.
After trying the Nexus 9, I came upon the Mach Speed Trio 7.85 again. It still had Foxit Mobile PDF along with the copy of The People of the Abyss I put on it! So I opened it and — my god don’t waste your money on that thing! It was even worse the second time, after experiencing the speed of the Nexus 9!
I still need to get on an iPad Air 2 and attempt a download of the full ~300MB version of The American Magazine to see how it handles it.
So far, the Nexus 9 beats everything else I’ve tried and seen.

Samsung could release an “Edge” variant of the Galaxy S6 – report

图片
From the recent launch of the  Galaxy Note Edge , it’s apparent that  Samsung  has been trying to stand out from the competition. Though we had our reservations about the new form factor, the next Samsung flagship could launch with an “Edge” variant as well. As reported by SamMobile, Samsung is rumored to launch a different form factor along the Galaxy S6 next year. Much like the Note line this year, the Galaxy S6 is said to launch in two variants: one with a plain slab of glass like we’re used to, and one with a curved-edge display. We’re unsure if the screen will have the same curve on the right edge like we saw at the Note Edge, but we’re hoping Samsung improves on the form factor, as the curved screen device had some problems of its own. Left-handed use was one of the problems we ran into with the Note Edge, as was the form factor in general. Overall, the phone felt interesting, weird, but very tough to get used to. It’s a different idea that we don’t necessarily want...
