Description

Google Nexus 10 is a beast of a device, with the main feature: a 2650x1600 display clocking in at 299 pixels per inch. As for the rest of the specs, the Nexus 10 will be packing Samsung's new 1.7GHz Cortex A15-based Exynos 5 chip, and quad-core Mali-T604 GPU, 2GB of RAM, NFC, a 5MP rear camera, and 1.9MP front camera. The tablet will also be running Android 4.2, just like the LG Nexus 4. One downside for some users is that the Nexus 10 will not have an SD card slot, so the storage is what it is.

This device is also known as Samsung Nexus 10

One of the best Android 10 inch tablet

Nexus 10 it's a great tablet that equal to IPad 4 but with less Apps selection. Excellent build quality and great performance even if you compare it to Nexus 7 2013 still equal in some area plus the good camera with flash.

The tablet is fast and great to look at, at 300 PPI it looks gorgeous, I can't imagine going back to lower resolution tablet! Quality wise it might not use aluminum or other expensive materials but the back is grippy and makes is very nice to hold, it does not feel like a cheap tablet. The front facing speakers are nice, and this is coming from somebody who hates to not use headphones. The battery is huge and with low brightness the tablet easily lasts a day with heavy use. There are a few issues I've noticed though, when the screen has been running for a long times the tablets RAM will fill up and you will need to restart it, and connection wise on my old iPad 2 loading YouTube videos seemed to be faster. Overall I would definitely recommend this to anybody already using an android tablet, or somebody looking to try one, its loads of fun to use!

Amazing. Lags mostly in Chrome but besides that very smooth like silk.
Battery was a wee bit dissappointing but not by a long shot.
I found the Build quality excellent for a SAMSUNG device, though I was hoping for aluminum, but still very grippy and doesn't feel cheap.
