        @katie Using 4.4.2 on a Nexus 7 2013. No issues, nor seeing anything special.

        4.3 might've have stability issues. Those are always hard to pin down. Being a new solo device at the time, hard to better qualify a solid opinion.

        Might be helpful, if haven't seen it yet—

              I had one but it died. Not a very useful device 😞

                  I updated a few weeks ago. So far I love it. Been fairly solid on my Samsung Galaxy S III

                    OK updated my Galaxy S4 last night. Most noticed change - fonts, they are just a 'bit' different.

                    I'm wondering, I was having some performance issues before the update which have been making me want to hard reset and start over. I wonder if things will be better now and not require the reset?

                      Yes, the UI changes I have observed have been pretty subtle. Seems a little smoother in transitioning between apps and things.

                        can you be subtle yet extremely noticeable? To me it just gives me an irry feeling, like something is just not quite right, but you can't put your finger on it... it's not bad, but after looking at the same settings for 9 months and to have these changes just feel awkward for a few days.

                          Been running it fine on droid maxx for quite awhile

                          Battery just about the same or better than jellybean. They say it's supposed to be better, I say about the same...

                          Only buy maxx devices for users now and only for battery life... Tired of complaints.

                            Have you tried a Note 3? The battery life of a normal user can last nearly 2 days.

                              I concur. I own one, battery life has been pretty stellar!
