If you are looking for a deal on a great small tablet, Amazon has one for you today. You can pick up the Asus built Nexus 7 (2013) with LTE support and 32GB of storage for an amazing $149.99. This is $250 off the retail price and $70 off the latest price on the tablet. This is a refurbished model from Amazon but it is like-new and it warrantied for 90 days from when you receive it so you have some comfort in knowing they have you covered in case something goes wrong.
My tablet of choice is the Nexus 7 (2013) as it is a perfect size for traveling and for being productive. It is powered by the Snapdragon S4 processor running at 1.5GHz, has 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. There is no MicroSD slot on the device so the 32GB built in will certainly come in handy. Display wise it has a 7″ IPS display that renders at 1200 x 1920, giving you ~332 PPI. As with most tablets, the camera is a little weak at 5MP on the rear and 1.2MP on the front.

Given that this is the LTE version of the tablet, support with AT&T and T-Mobile are not a problem. It supports LTE bands band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 13(700), 17(700). T-Mobile users will note that band 12 (700) is not supported and while Project Fi is not officially supported, I have been able to get my Nexus 7 working on the service with the data only SIM from the service. Your mileage will vary and no, it is not officially supported.
While the device will ship with KitKat, it can be upgraded to Android Marshmallow. Google releases a new update for it monthly so you will always have the latest version of the OS running on it. Keep in mind that the Nexus 7 (2013) is a couple of years old so Marshmallow will be the last major version of Android on this device.
This deal, like many of the other deals from Amazon, is good while supplies last. There is no coupon code required and the purchase is Prime eligible for those who have that offering from the retailer.
