So I got a "new" 2013 Nexus 7 (that's the latest model). Haven't had to use it much, thankfully, but since I was the subject of some Android hate (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.reddit.com/r/androidcirclejerk/comments/2t0py4/petition_to_add_mike_to_the_list_of_known_heretics/">http://www.reddit.com/r/androidcircleje ... _heretics/</a><!-- m -->) from a comment made in an article I wrote (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.iammike.org/2015/01/18/how-to-get-free-airplane-internet/">http://www.iammike.org/2015/01/18/how-t ... -internet/</a><!-- m -->), I did write up my first five minutes with it:
Start it up. It asks me for my wifi network. I enter it. It immediately begins to shutdown for a software update. I’d expect it to say restart since that's what it is actually doing. Upon restart, it had forgotten my wifi network. Login to Google account. It asks me my name, which has been autofilled. The screen flashes and my name is no longer autofilled. I enter my name, the system starts, and Google Play tells me it has crashed. I didn't even launch Google Play. Real classy.
Why do you people put up with this garbage?
