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

But the Nexus 9 puts Android's big-screen shortcomings front and center. I hate

So it's been a while since I reviewed a Nexus device. This is actually the first one since the Nexus 10 in 2012. It's always fun reviewing new Nexus hardware because not only do you have great hardware, but also a new version of Android, which in this...
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 provides a good mix of light weight and screen size, and it has great graphics performance. But its battery life disappoints, and the tablet occupies a tough middle ground hemmed in by iPads and other, more premium Android tabs. Read More…...

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 ...
The Nexus 9 is undoubtedly an aspirational device. For a long time now, Google and the Android tablet market in general have been in a position similar to Amazon's Fire tablet. This has meant that the margin on the hardware itself has been quite low, and...
