    I'm guessing he's making the valid point that when discussing phones, to 99.9% of people the term S6 means one specific device, and 6S means a different very specific device.

    I see the nexus 9 is down to 209.99. I have a old 2012 nexus 7. Worth the update?

    Great price if you can get one. Very solid tablet - minor light bleed when the screen is black, but other than that it's great piece of kit.

    Anyone able to confirm if its a 2014 model or the slightly different 2015? I'd jump on it if its the newer model which sorted out the issues.

    I reserved one for myself, as I need a phone and I'm currently between getting a OnePlus 2 and a Nexus 6P (one is cheap, one is pricey) and now this - however, I see that you can get the 32GB on Amazon normally for around the same price.

    Light bleed on both either way I'm afraid.

    Were they all physical copies?

    HTC on the box doesn't mean its the new version. There is a htc4xxxxx and a htc5xxxxx version. 4 being made in 2014 and 5 2015. The 2014 version has a few bits wrong with it.

    Anything major to worry about. Picked up 2 for the kids for Christmas. It will only be light use browsing watching utube...

    The htc4 models had some screen bleed issues, and the buttons weren't very protruding and made them hard to press. The htc4a models specially, the htc4b are much better. Think I'll hold on till next week, something may come up.

    Htc4b is the model number on the tablets. I picked up today. Thanks for the info.

    I presume he's including a €10 voucher. Its a good deal if you can combine the two deals on the PS4 page.

    It's not great tbh, as you said light bleed is an issue not a big one but noticeable.
    The buttons are indeed hard to press.
    My main issue is I get several random reboots a week, it's not app related.

    On a positive note I find it's form factor/size spot on, I also have a Z2 tablet and Z3 tablet and the 9 is the perfect mix between the two, if only it was built as well.
    The switch back to the 4:3 ratio wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
    My Z2 is out for repair at the moment but once it's back I'm going to see if HTC or Google (not sure who covers the warranty) can fix the reboots.

    Not a bother, I hate companies who put on a sale to shift old stock. The b model should be fine and have the better buttons, light bleed greatly reduced too.

    Boards is great for getting all types of information, good and bad.

    Heresy! There would be no bargain alerts then!
