Nexus 9 and Android 5.0

I couldn't resist getting a new tablet. My old Nexus 7 2012 was getting so laggy I couldn't stand it. With the new Nexus 9 available I thought - why not.

I have it now for a little over a week and overall I'm quite positive. It's well built , fits nicely in bag and the screen is really nice. Speed wise, it's probably above Nexus 7 2013 but I've got some lag here and there. Might be Lollipop issue but nevertheless. Nice touch is the support for double tap to wake.

Lollipop is nice. Takes a bit of time to get used to the new material design, whiteness etc but the only thing I miss so far is the real silent mode. I need to get used to the priority modeBattery life is okay. Can be better tbh.I expected more from the project Volta.

So far, if you don't need Nexus device with Lollipop, think twice. Nexus 9 is pricey and I still am not sure if I can approve the extra cost. I'm happy though ;-)
