Here is what it says:
"When Google released Android 4.2, it added some new features to the OS and, unfortunately, included some annoying bugs as well. One of those bugs has turned out to be an issue with Nexus 7 owners claiming that if they leave their tablet off for an extended period of time or completely drain the battery they are experiencing issues with the device not charging after plugging it in and in some cases they can't even turn their Nexus 7 on."

Further down that article it lists SEVEN major flaws for the Nexus 7.
My opinion is that EVERY gadget has its flaws. We can work around them or get another with different flaws. Nothing is perfect.
I recently upgraded from a Windows 7 PC to a Windows 8.1 PC. My new PC has lots of new features like speed but lots of things I used to do on the old PC no longer work. That is the way things are and we have to live with them.
When I purchased my new car last April, it took me 3 weeks to learn all its required VOICE commands to drive it. My old car had no voice commands. There are lots of new bugs in the new car which were not even possible in the old car.

The Nexus is Android 4.3 now so most of the issues have been addressed. The second link shows this guy is a apple fan as he wrote that before it was released!. I totally agree with you that there is risk on anything you buy. Software bugs can be fixed but hardware problems like blue borders you will have to get another tablet once the issue has been fixed. While I know Amazon Customer support is top notch and going with Asus tablet they seem to be very active on Amazon posting to reviewers who need help still I plan to get a Square Trade warranty when they give out their big coupon on Black Friday for extra insurance.
I just wish the HDX had work for had my first not failed I would have been very happy with it.
