So I'd like to find an android tablet and I need it for cheap, so I'm wondering if you guys think a 1st Gen Nexus 7 32gb with a case for $30 or $40 is a good deal, or should I look for a different tablet or is the Nexus 7 WAY outdated by now, I just need something simple, light fast and preferably stock android so no Samsung's already had one and it was SOO slow after not even a month and the battery life on it is horrible.

Anyways thanks.

Well I'm still using my nexus 7 2012 and just updated it to lollipop and it runs soooo well.

The nexus 7 is a very good deal and still powerful enough. Stock android tablets are a little harder to come by than phones.

Is the 2012 version still any good? It'd only cost like $30 or $40
