New Nexus 7 faces widespread display and GPS problems

After the launch of the new Nexus 7 tablet, consumers have realised that there were many hardware problems hindering the new device. Following the known GPS problem, many early adopters have also complained about problems on the touch screen. Nexus 7 users are reporting erratic touchscreen and keyboard behaviour, including double presses and ghost taps that appear nowhere near the target area.

“It’s almost to the point where it is unusable,” one user on Google’s product forums said. In the same thread, users have complained of erratic pinch-to-zoom behaviour in apps such as Google Maps, where the level of zooming seems to jump all over the place.

Google has already responded to this issue and stated that the Android team is trying their best to understand the causing factors and investigation is in its full swing. However, there are no news on the issue up to date. It should be noted that not all new Nexus 7 will encounter the problems mentioned above. Hopefully, Google will issue a new software updated to resolve these bugs. If it is a hardware fault, then refund and exchange of the product will be imminent.
