Google Nexus 10 Review

Enter the Google Nexus 10 - the Android tablet to rule them all. A brand new chipset and a Retina-killer of a screen are a great start, while the most feature-rich operating system on the market should help seal the deal. Not to mention that the Nexus 10 helps you save a pretty penny, undercutting the main rival by a good 20%.

Key features

  • 10.1" 16M-color Super PLS TFT capacitive touchscreen of WQXGA resolution (2560 x 1600 pixels), 300ppi density
  • Scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass 2
  • Exynos 5250 chipset: dual-core 1.7 GHz ARM Cortex-A15 processor, Mali-T604 GPU, 2GB of RAM
  • Android 4.2 Jelly Bean
  • 16/32 GB of built-in memory
  • 5 megapixel camera with LED flash
  • 1.9 MP front-facing camera
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi Direct, Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Front-mounted stereo speakers
  • Standard USB port
  • microHDMI port
  • Bluetooth
  • 3.5 mm audio jack
  • GPS with A-GPS support; GLONASS support; digital compass
  • NFC and Android Beam support
  • Accelerometer and proximity sensor, gyroscope sensor, barometer
  • 9000 mAh Li-Po battery
  • Multi-user access
  • Attractively priced

Main disadvantages

  • Non-expandable memory
  • No USB host (can be enabled with an app though)
  • No mobile data-enabled version
  • Poor video-codec support out of the box
Apple would go on and on about all those Retina-optimized tablet-friendly apps, but numbers can be deceptive. It looks nearly impossible for any slate on the market to match the functionality the Nexus 10 is offering right out of the box.
