“my nexus 7 is running SO SLOW and I made clean upgrade, used to be better in kitkat,” one user wrote in a Google Forum post.

Some users are even experiencing issues with the apps, including compatibility problems with Adobe Air-based apps.

“My 2012 Asus Nexus 7 got the OTA update on Saturday and it’s SOOOO slow now it’s ridiculous. Even the auto-rotate has a lag,” Android user Ron Dorsey wrote on the forum.

Google seems to have rushed the update too quickly before properly testing it on different devices. If you’re looking to jump into the latest Android OS, you should probably wait a couple of months for Google to fix these issue before installing the OS.
