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
Abstract: While Apple's iPad might get the majority of headlines when it comes to tablets, there are plenty of great offerings for those who prefer the pleasures of Android. Here's our Hudl 2 vs Nexus 9 comparison review. We compare the devices to see which one is...

Overall, it's tricky to know what to make of the Nexus 9. On the one hand, it's the fastest Android tablet we've tested, and battery life for light tasks such as watching video is superb. It has a bright, sharp display in a practical, usable 4:3 aspect ra...
Abstract: Microsoft's Surface 3 has arrived as a cheaper alternative to the Surface Pro 3 , but how does it compare to the Google Nexus 9 which also has a keyboard dock? Find out in our Surface 3 vs Nexus 9 comparison review. The Nexus 9 and Surface 3 are q...
Cheap design, Colour reproduction is not the best.
We find that mobile devices tend to prioritise either style or substance – and the Nexus 9 definitely prioritises the latter. The Tegra K1 CPU chip is a beastly performer, ripping through the benchmarks and handling normal usage very well.The battery life...
Abstract: Performance is very smooth and will not keep you waiting although I have found some screen tinting apps such as Twilight seem to negatively effect its fluidity when scrolling pages. If you want even further performance boosts, this being the beauty of and...
Neat design, Impressive display, Good audio, Android Lollipop software is excellent,
Average battery life, Not as portable as 7in size, No microSD, Some build quality concerns
The Nexus 9 starts from £319 for the 16GB Wi-Fi only model, but if you want 4G or LTE you have to go up to 32GB at a price of £459. A 32GB Wi-Fi only version will cost you £399. You can buy it through the Google Play store, Amazon, Currys, PC World, Arg...
Abstract: The Google Nexus 9 is the latest first-party tablet from the search giant, and it's the first slate to come packing Android 5.0 Lollipop too. Starting at £319, the Nexus 9 is a premium effort from Google and HTC, but have they succeeded in creating the ul...

4:3 aspect ratio works well, Android 5.0 Lollipop, Fast performance, Strong battery life
Lacks fine detail in video, Music performance is poor, No microSD card slot, Uncompetitive at this price, Design could be better
All this comes together to leave us feeling rather underwhelmed by the Nexus 9. Its screen size might be appealing for its mid-size approach, and its inclusion of Lollipop will be a draw for pure Android fans. But when it comes to performance, the Nexus 9...
