new ways of thinking
new connections
and new industries

it really is a surprisingly good keyboard
keys have a solid amount of travel and offer a very satisfying click
Nexus 9 is a really good tablet
Lollipop is unquestionably the best version of Android yet
Colors look very good
The software is generally excellent
metal rim definitely makes for a significant contrast in texture and feel

The sound is recorded in stereo and is decent
good performance and decent battery life
swift performance of the 64-bit processor

It makes an impeccable impression in practical use
The game itself functioned perfectly
It s the best Android has ever looked
s front-facing speakers are loud and sound great
Colour balance is largely accurate
the tablet was fine
comfortable
reliable tentpole
smooth and streamlined design
commendably sharp and boasts wide viewing angles
It performs extremely well and will handle anything you throw at it with ease
streamlined construction has a deluxe
comfortable feel
speedy performance and consistent updates
graphics are impressively sharp and smooth
Performance also remains impressively smooth when many apps are open in the background
its aesthetic is subtle and pleasingly comfortable
the device is otherwise assembled pretty well
Wifi speeds were great
and audio over Bluetooth was fine
the screen on our unit is excellent
Bluetooth and Wifi have excellent range

no microSD slot
megapixel main camera extends a little bit from the top right corner
doesn't have an HDMI or SlimPort output
there's no memory card slot or IR blaster
visual noise ramps
Video recording also suffers from the cameras' exposure struggles
it s not all the time
deduct some points because sunlight visibility is a bit disappointing
The device doesn t get uncomfortably hot
And battery life has been disappointing in my experience
the device heats up noticeably
the screen is very reflective
doesn't look or feel as high-end as the others
no onscreen keyboard will pop up
it's a memory allocation issue
Screen is too reflective for some outdoor conditions
the metal feels glossy in the hand rather than matte
the reflections are not as intense as in other tablets
only a single LED at the bottom of the device
quite as incredible as an all-aluminum unibody
The metal frame has a noticeable outward angle to it
slight outward curve
performance is wasted here
Not all apps have been optimized yet
Google has unnecessarily purged options here
less expensive devices
Battery life is very sensitive to changes in screen brightness
this setting cannot be enforced by the benchmark app
device may be too hot or have other apps running in the background
it s no more portable than the Air
PINOCCHIO is now playing in select theaters
Neither version offers a microSD slot for further expansion
Alameda took huge losses when Luna went down
and sloppy accounting
it s not likely to solve the problems with Windows on Arm
Tegra K1 is pretty bad-ass
the lens physically sticks out
auto-focus function slow in comparison to manually choosing your focal point
tonal balance is overly bright and sounds particularly hard
a tendency to be a little glary and lacking in detail
lack of attention to detail compared to rivals
both slow and unreliable
large protruding lens covering an 8 megapixel sensor)
catch light in a particularly cool-looking way
Colors look slightly different between these Earths
it is disappointingly slow to charge
limited range and slow functionality
a literal stretch and difficult to securely grasp when positioned upright
a blank
unresponsive screen or quickly loaded only to consistently crash
it's still a mediocre tablet camera
Memory leaks and force closures
lag will be non-existent once the software catches up
viewing media in landscape mode
atrocious bloatware and custom user interface
Nexus 9 has no real peer
the battery life is not bad on the latest software
some pretty significant light bleed at the edge of the display
the glass on the screen actually gets hot above the CPU
are a little soft
and a bit grainy

When Google's Nexus 9 tablet first came out three months ago, we looked at it in direct comparison with Apple's iPad (which was the better choice). This time, we look at the tablet on its own, and along side HTC's companion folio keyboard.
