I have the 16b white version, and really regret not saving the extra cash for the 32gb version. That's not to say it isn't excellent - it's just that with 16gb space, you get left with about 9gb that isn't taken up by Android.
According to Android police, they were looking at some of the details and it points very much to an incremental release to lay groundwork down for 5.1.1

Anyone on official 5.1.1 now?
Mate got it this evening, but looked like it was out a couple days ago!?
If it's sorted the battery drain, I'll definitely move back!
Edit: Went with the official 5.1.1 last night, and have used it a good bit today.
Battery life seems inline with what I was getting on the DirtyUnicorns ROM. Can't really say much else about it though... It works.
Really glad I bought one.

I've just got one of these and I've turned off encryption.
Can people notice the performance difference?

I've used that one since I've had mine, for being so cheap, it's pretty good.
You'd have to have smoked quite a lot of crack to suggest the RRP should be £49.99. At under £10, it's sturdy, and has magnetic cover. Came with 2 screen protectors also, although I've never understood why people put these on things.

Got mine and updated to the latest version of Lollipop but the performance is not fantastic. In particular the multitasking. Running more than one Chrome tab often means each one has to refresh when moving between them. And Google Play Music is extremely laggy. Any ideas on how to improve it?

Last update fixed many issues to the point i was ready to throw my nexus 9 in the bin!
Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking at the Z3 tablet compact and the Tab S as well but would prefer stock Android and it’s much more likely there will be future Android system updates on the N9.
I've noticed these are down to £199 now at Argos, and the Gogole anounements today could see them drop further (if the Pixel C is designed as a replacement to the 9). So are they worth it now?
Is it going to be abandoned like the N10, or will it be supported long into the future like some of the other devices have been (I'm thinking specifically Marshmallow and then Android N and beyond)?

Cheers, I didn't realise Bespoke were back on TCB. I am doing this now as for ~£150 this should be a decent upgrade from my trusty old Nexus7 2013 that should hopefully last for a while!
