I was a huge fan of the Nexus 7 -- it's the device that changed how I looked at personal computers. I bought myself one, and ones for a couple of family members. Within 3 years they were all unusably slow. Kept them going for a little while with some device resets, but eventually we just all had to give up on them. The family has been on iPads ever since and even the oldest of the bunch still run great (much thanks to iOS 12's perf improvements). That's the whole story on how I got sold on Apple hardware.
