Peculiar that you can, somehow, lose the keyboard and consequently get shut out of your Nexus! Any suggestions?

5 years and this device is still working like a champ. Baterry life is still decent. I have not even rooted or anything, it is running on MM 6.0.
Only complains are:
Touch input fails sometimes
The microusb port doesn't work as intended. I can't charge the device when is on or connect it to a PC. From what I've read it is an issue in the port that needs to be replaced.
Overall I think this is one of the most durable hardware ever.

It's a really fast and HD tablet. It's my 3rd android tablet and the quickest and best. Would totally recommend it. I replaced my IPad with this and no regrets.

There is a thread on XDA developers for running upgrading this tablet to Android N 7.1.2. This unofficial upgrade eliminated the lag from 5.x and made my Nexus a happy, useful tablet again 😀

Google: "Nexus 7 replacement battery suppliers". Since you apparently haven't done this before, I suggest you buy one of the "replacement kits" with the tools included. You will find especially helpful the plastic "prying tools" which enable you to separate the front and rear case halves without breaking the rear one.
Consult YouTube vids for step-by-step how-to instructions. Most are very good.
ONE CAVEAT: The original Nexus 7 battery comes with a temperature sensor built into the battery. This is useful to the battery charging circuitry in determining the fastest rate to charge the battery without damaging it. Many low-cost (Chinese) after-market suppliers supply replacement batteries without a battery temperature sensor, and the circuitry from the battery indicating a hard-wired constant temperature. Try to select a battery/manufacturer/supplier which supplies a real Nexus 7 battery containing active an active temperature sensor.
On the other hand, if you find yourself with a replacement battery which tells you the battery is always the same temperature, it's not the end of the world. The battery may charge slightly (SLIGHTLY) slower, or the replacement battery's lifetime may not be quite as long. Either way, you have a tablet that will work again for at least a couple of years.

On this weekend I played around with my death Nexus 7. Last time it's lag pretty bad with lollipop and charging doesn't went well. Now it's brought back to life.
I re-soldered the 2 of micro USB pins to GPIO (POGO connector on the side) and connect using small cables. Basically it's will charge to the POGO pin via micro USB connector. And wow, it's charge pretty much speedy. Let's say around 2 hours from 0%-90% (thanks to XDA Forum for the tips, DIWYOR).
For the OS, I downgraded from Lollipop to SlimKat; the sluggish thing is now gone. It's still incomparable with latest devices, but it's works pretty well.
