Umm.... No
5.1 has appeared to put right what the first 5.0 releases had wrong.
Unfortunately, that's not the case with everyone. My wife has a Nexus 7 (2012). 5.02 was bad but 5.1 made it worse. I updated it over the air a few days ago and wiped the cache but didn't tell her. She repeatedly said how bad 5.02 was so I wanted to do a blind test to really see if 5.1 improved things. After the update she used it for about 5 minutes and asked me what was wrong with the Nexus. It had gotten MUCH worse. Apps take minutes to open, it won't connect to the wifi, web browsing is out of the question. I have virtually no apps installed other than factory stuff. Facebook and Chrome have both been known issues with 5.0 so I removed Facebook and disabled Chrome long ago.
The evening I updated it she said the battery was at 80% when she went to sleep and it was completely dead when we got up. It did boot back up after charging but I have no idea what caused the battery to die overnight.
She's basically given up on the tablet at this point. Even if I can get it back to KitKat she's got it in her head that it's junk and perception is everything.
By the way, I originally posted a version of this yesterday morning, saw it on the forum later that day, and then saw the post was gone last night???? I got no notification from any mods that it was removed. Do they usually let you know that kind of thing?
