My 2012 N7 was lightning when I bought it but got slower and slower. Factory resets didn't help and I never installed Lollipop. I can't understand why it didn't go back to its original speed!
Got fed up and bought a Hudl2 for £100.
I had the 2012 N7 for a year and started noticing slight speed drops, so I got a 2013 N7. Has been great until the last couple of months - but it's starting to feel a bit less smooth than it used to be.Got fed up and bought a Hudl2 for £100.
I also have a Galaxy Nexus phone which was GREAT brand new. But the last couple of years it has been getting slower and slower. Tried factory reset and lightweight ROMs - they help for a few days and then it just gets worse again, even with no apps installed.
I think all the Android system and app updates must be too much for older devices to handle.

My N7 2013 was running slow, especially Chrome, so I rebooted into recovery mode and cleared the cache partition. It's flying along again now.I also have a Galaxy Nexus phone which was GREAT brand new. But the last couple of years it has been getting slower and slower.
