Ships with Lollipop out of the box
Utilitarian tablet for the masses
Feels great to hold
Ships with Android 5.0 Lollipop
Super-fast processor
First tablet with Android Lollipop
Which has lots of new features
The Google Nexus 9 is the first tablet to run Android Lollipop 5.0
Which should receive timely updates. It performs steadily with many apps open
And switching between them is fluid. Its streamlined construction has a deluxe
Comfortable feel
Great screen and speakers
Colourful Lollipop software looks fantastic against the inconspicuous Nexus design
Powerful
The editors didn't like
Pricier than before
No expandable storage
Screen marks very easily with fingerprints
Feels vaguely flimsy
Low volume for notifications is still quite invasive in quiet environments
Screen has glare and leaks light
Android's still has many shortcomings
Expensive
Poor camera
Some apps need to be updated
Android is still a bit behind Windows on productivity apps and iOS on high-profile games and apps
Not all apps work smoothly with Android 5.0 yet. Firm contact is necessary for efficient touchscreen response and it's slow to charge. The largest capacity model offered is 32GB and there's no microSD card slot
Excellent frontfacing stereo speakers and a very nice screen. Light, comfortable to hold. Runs the latest version of stock Android, which has improved since launch. Very solid battery life. Keyboard cover Folio (sold separately) is a nice option for enter
Not as consistently fast as it should be. Screen is too reflective for some outdoor conditions. Optional Keyboard Folio is buggy, and using it on the fly can grow annoying

Comfortable, lightweight design, Above-average speakers, Runs pure version of latest Android ("Lollipop")
Rubberized back is fingerprint- and streak-prone, No MicroSD card slot for storage expansion, Slow to charge, Ho-hum battery life

The Nexus 9 is a tablet that is amazing in some ways, and “just okay” in others. The fact that it's built by HTC makes me feel like it should be of the most premium standards, something the device clearly is not, if anything its somewhere in the middle be...
Abstract: The Nexus 9 came out back on November 3, 2014, the first piece of hardware that shipped with Android 5.0 Lollipop, Google's latest version of their mobile operating system. Within weeks I picked one up and started using it regularly and it soon became my ...
