    Has Nexus 7 aged well?

    I still use mine every day but have thought about replacing it mainly due to touch screen problems. Not sure what I would replace it with as I don't want a nexus 9 and don't see any 7 inch tablets that blow the nexus 7 out the water. Maybe I will look at an 8 inch tablet but don't think I would...

    Nexy 7 2013 Will NOT Power Up: Only displays "Google"

    One thing I noticed about my nexus 7 on lollipop is it runs far hotter than it did on KitKat even streaming video makes it really hot, doing the same thing on KitKat and it stayed cool. I wonder if anyone else noticed that, and could these failures be the result of thermal issues? Posted via...

    Do you plan on updating to Lollipop, or you will stay with KitKat?

    I have gone back to KitKat after lollipop made my nexus 7 2013 unstable and very very slow. Hope they can fix it in 5.1, was surprised how much faster KitKat seems when I went back to it. Posted via the Android Central App
