I refuse to buy google hardware after the horrible mess they made with their tablets, My first Gen Nexus 7 died due to hardware failure and they refused to admit or fix it, then I bought a second gen and the last firmware update bricked it. Such Garbage

- mceachen 7y agoIt's not just the first gen. My second gen nexus 7 bricked. And my 2 Nexus 5X died from fatal bootloops. And there are screen issues with Pixel, Pixel 2, and Pixel 3 (and slowdowns/lagging/battery issues from recent firmware with all three)... Hardware is hard, I get it. But just the handling of the Nexus 5X was inexcusably bad--to ship firmware that crippled the entire deployed fleet, and then shrug. Shame on me for buying more of their hardware.
- lokedhs 7y agoMy Nexus 6P ia still sitting here with a bootloop. Apparently you could get compensated if you're in the US so I'm out of luck. And the compensation didn't happen until a lawsuit. At best, I'd consider Google hardware to be disposable. That's how I treat my Chromecast devices that I still use. I'm not buying anything new from them if it costs more than making them disposable.
