The editors didn't like
Pricier than before
No expandable storage
Slower boot time
Lack of a microSD card slot
Lack of innovation in design and aesthetics
Priced higher than previously expected
Nexus devices are supposed to show off the perfect mesh of stock Android and thoughtfully designed hardware
But the Nexus 9 puts Android's big-screen shortcomings front and center. I hate
Hate
Hate having to really deliberately stretch my t
Lacks fine detail in video
Music performance is poor
No microSD card slot
Uncompetitive at this price
Design could be better

Lack of apps supporting 64-bit processor on Android
Camera isn't great
Screen has some small issues
Android 5.0 still needs some tweaks
Only available in 16GB and 32GB versions
Disappointing build quality
Expensive to upgrade storage capacity
Below par display quality
Boring design
No micro SD slot
Average battery life
Not as portable as 7in size
No microSD
Some build quality concerns
Subpar battery life
The odd hiccup while navigating
Video game graphics need some serious optimisation
Abstract: It's here my very own brand new Nexus 9 32gb Wifi. I have been looking forward to this day for a wee while as I loved my Nexus 7 (2013) edition and it was in desperate need of a successor. I have been reviewing a lot of tablets recently but this is the on...

Abstract: On an 8.9-inch screen that's perfectly decent but nothing stellar, Lollipop looks stylish and slick, with improved notifications and redesigned Gmail and calendar apps.Camera and speakers, too, are perfectly adequate, but the Nexus 9 is primarily a tem...
Abstract: Google and HTC's new Nexus 9 tablet is most notable for being the first device to ship with Android 5.0 "Lollipop," making it attractive to Android fans. But it also delivers a bright hi-res screen and impressive performance that could win more than a fe...

Probably not. The more expensive iPad Air 2 blows it away from a performance standpoint, and the original iPad Air is now priced identically to the Nexus 9. Even though it's a year older it will probably serve you better as an all-around tablet, due to so...

Nice design, plenty of grip, great speakers, latest version of Android, loads of power, wonderfully natural display
Some early app compatibility problems, average camera, no microSD storage expansion, some display edge bleed
The Nexus 9 sits at the very cutting edge of Android tablets. We like the design, the size is practically portable and we think Android 5.0 Lollipop makes some fundamental changes that make Android better. There's no question that this is a better d...
Thin, light, and portable design, Sharp screen is great for videos, Long-lasting battery, Lollipop is pure Android perfection
Flimsy build flexes, Weird, uneven camera bulge, No MicroSD card, Limited storage options
Google is rewriting the rules again with the Nexus 9, proving that a tablet can be high-end and hit stores for a hundred dollars less than it closest competitors. Its sharp screen, portable design, zippy processor, and long battery life make it a viable ...

Abstract: Set to compete against the likes of the iPad Air 2 , the tablet aims to impress with much higher specifications than previous models, touting an 8.9in 2048x1536 screen and Nvidia's 64-bit Tegra K1 processor....
Big, sharp screen, Powerful GPU, Good battery life
Not as swish as an iPad, Backlight leakage, Slightly disappointing stereo speakers
