Verdict

The Google Nexus 10 (2GB + 32GB) is a high-performance tablet co-developed by Google and Samsung, featuring a standout 10.1-inch PLS LCD display with a massive 2560x1600 resolution (300 ppi) protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2. Under the hood, it is powered by a 1.7GHz dual-core Samsung Exynos 5250 processor paired with a quad-core Mali-T604 GPU and a substantial 9,000mAh battery. Main characteristics include front-facing stereo speakers, dual NFC sensors, a micro-HDMI port, and the ability to run stock Android with multi-user support. Its primary pros are the incredibly sharp, industry-leading display for its time, smooth overall performance, and a comfortable, lightweight design with a grippy rubberised back. However, notable cons include the lack of a microSD slot for storage expansion, long charging times via micro-USB, and a historical shortage of third-party apps specifically optimised for its large, high-resolution screen.
