Asus Google Nexus 7 - user opinions and reviews

Although the Nexus7 has received all sorts of plaudits in online reviews don't expect any help from ASUS if you get a problem with one. I have so far had two (the original unit and a store replacement) that didn't work properly (the first one the screen pixilated, the second one the charger connection didn't work).This was followed two repairs done by ASUS which have failed to solve problems with the microphone. I am now waiting for my 5th replacement/repair. The real problem, though, is with the terrible service from ASUS. I have received positively the worst service I have ever had with any product in my entire life - and I'm not young. Hours on the basic service phone line, hours more to speak to a supervisor, a six-week long exchange of dozens of emails using ASUS's online "escalation" approach with someone who simply does not understand the English language. Repair turnaround times are advertised at 5 - 7 business days but actually take in excess of a month. The escalation process which promises responses within 48 hours takes 5 - 7 days to get a response and questions are never answered directly, if at all. Requests for my unit to be replaced with a new unit have been denied (not their policy). Even a request for a reconditioned replacement unit has been denied. I'd love to get my money back but that, of course, has been denied too. ASUS does not deserve to stay in business with this kind of customer aftercare.

Updated to 5.0 lollipop a few days ago. No Wifi problems as other users report, battery life is the same as with 4.4 but the systems goes slow as hell.

I officially updated my Nexus 7 2012 device two days ago in Israel. My experience with it is horrible. The device is very slow. It reboots every now and then. The system crushes and i have already sent like 50 crush reports. Different apps are not responding. My clock widget shows the minutes and then the hours (instead of 13:52 it shows 52:13). My advice to anyone owning a Nexus 7 2012 model to wait with your Android 5 update. You will regret updating it. I know that there are ways to reverse the damage by going back to Android 4.4 but i have no idea and no time to make the necessary jailbreaks or roots or whatever...

Yesterday night i.e. on 19th Nov, 2014, India time GMT+5.30, on 1.15 am, i got notification that the 5.0 system update is available. It takes 20mins for 400MB download. And then it finalize the applying update takes too much time like around 1hr. After update, the ui is awesome. MXplayer is not compatible, so need to uninstall reboot the tab and reload mxplayer again. then only it works. Chrome is alos not working. I am using Chrome Beta version. One good thing is battery. It is now 6hrs after charged fully my tab.My wifi is on for 6 hrs and i m browsing for around 2 hrs. Updating around 18 apps which is showing outdated after lollipop update. Still it is 91%. Will post more review.
