I couldn't disagree more with this ridicule. The device got a revised version. There's not any more to it. Also, the existence of a separate article for the revised version is equally ludicrous. I hope this is all merged back together soon and moved to Nexus 7 as it should. -- uKER ( talk) 19:02, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
Now that the article Nexus 7 (2nd generation) is being kept, this should probably be moved to Nexus 7 (1st generation). Then the page Nexus 7 should be just about the line of tablets.

There has been a question about the version of Bluetooth found in this tablet. The official specs from Asus say it is version 3.0 ( http://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/Nexus_7/#specifications). But websites that teardown tablets ( http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+7+Teardown/9623/), have found that the tablet's wireless module is an AzureWave AW-NH665 ( http://www.wpgholdings.com/news/detail/zhtw/product/12393). The AW-NH665 includes the Broadcom BCM4330 ( http://www.broadcom.com/products/Wireless-LAN/802.11-Wireless-LAN-Solutions/BCM4330) chip inside of it. According to specs on the AW-NH665 and BCM4330, they are made for Bluetooth version 4.0 (to me it looks more like they can support 4.0, but that doesn't mean it can't support 3.0 depending on how it is built). Now some editors think this means the Nexus 7 (2012 version) has Bluetooth version 4.0, and this clashes with the Asus and Google specs that say it's 3.0. It seems like there is too much original research going on here ( Wikipedia:No original research), and we need to stick with what has been published. And why if it is 4.0 would Google advertise something less? We need something that says specifically the Nexus 7 (2012 version) has version 3.0, and then we can change it. That's why I reverted it back to version 3.0.-- Mangoman88 ( talk) 00:18, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved. Jenks24 ( talk) 10:29, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
– There is no need to add the word 'version' to the article titles when the year of release alone is enough for disambiguation. The current title is unnecessarily long. sovereign° sentinel (contribs) 08:34, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Stop. There is no need for consistency between the article title and infobox title. See Sia Furler. The device was called the Nexus 7 without 2012 during its lifespan (it was discontinued before the release of the 2013 Nexus 7), and therefore "Nexus 7" is its common name. sst✈ (discuss) 02:13, 21 November 2015 (UTC) Also, you told me to "look at the article title". The title says Nexus 7 (2012) without "version". Please check carefully. sst✈ (discuss) 02:17, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
I edited text "In March 2015, the Nexus 7 was upgraded to Android 5.1, which fixes the lagging issues.[62]" to "In March 2015, the Nexus 7 was upgraded to Android 5.1, which a little fixes the lagging issues.[62] But device still unusable and more users downgrade to Android 4.4.4 or custom ROM.", but User:Y2kcrazyjoker4 revert my changes. I edit this text because his incorrect, Nexus 7 2012 in Android 5.1 still have lagging issues and device still unusable. I have this device and I tried everything I could (clear cashe, wipe device, install ROM from official instructions: Factory Images for Nexus Devices, dissable synchronisation and keyboard swyping & preview), but in 5.1 devise is still unusable. So I and many people revert to 4.4.4. or install other custom ROM, like CyanogenMod. if necessary, I will add references to users reviews after installing 5.1 update (4dpa, xda, google forums, etc.). PS: I new in wikipedia, and english not my native language, so maybe I did something incorrect, please help me. Mikhail Gribanov ( talk) 06:14, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
I can support this view too; the device is stil very slow after 5.1 update. Users should consider a class action agains Google. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.92.19.36 ( talk) 14:00, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
