yes, if you watch other reviews, they say the back feels hollow, and if you press it hard enough, the plastic would flex in the hollow center area
Have had this tablet since Dec 2012 (32G) and have had no reason to want to replace it with a current model tablet, the display is still just as good as today's tablets as 2k resolution is just becoming more popular, I've had no issues with light bleed or crashing, great Samsung Google collaboration, this tablet was way ahead of its time. Of course, Apples junk iPad is the only tab that ever gets any press, would never buy one of those 800 dollar paperweights that gets a 1\2 new feature each year...
Amen
I truly enjoyed the tone of your review. It seems very evenhanded and unbiased while remaining honest about the flaws and/or questionable points of the device. In all of that, I don't remember any inflammatory comments or incendiary terminology. Impeccably professional. I think this was easily the best review of such a device that I've seen in recent months. Thank you.
I scrolled down through the comments, could not find this point made: The Pogo charging cable is available for Nexus 10 to use that magnetic port, users report about 25% faster charging. Decent sized USB batteries now out with 1.5A and 2A outputs also which themselves charge at 2A input. Combined you're attacking down the power issues with the Nexus 10 - being able to charge faster both from mains and external batteries.
I have to admit that your are one of the best reviewers...your are very responsible and you cover everything...greetings from Greece...
Android on the Nexus 7 is just perfect. What it needs is like on SGS3 and Note II, with the multi window multitasking ...that feature is just awesome
Your review is one of the few that mentions about the Nexus 10 slow charging. None of the major tech review sites brought up the issue. It pains me to fully charge this tablet, even at 50% battery. I wish I had seen your review prior to my purchase. Thank you for this awesome review.
Im from Detroit, your review was very professional, thorough, and seemigly unbias, and it was done on a product I'm extremely interested in. You just earned a subscriber my man. Props on the UofM hat although I went to MSU but it's all good Go Michigan
Ordered mine and delivery on Tuesday. Can't wait to get my hands on it .
I've already watched other unboxing but you are the best can't ignore yours
That's true...i believe that you don't need more than 10 minutes,it's just percect...you cover everything and it's not boring...soon enough you will have subscribers from all over the world,just keep up the good work...
I love that key board the camera is just like the nexus 4
I really wanna get this tablet but I don't think I have enough. I would do anything! It looks SO awesome!
Great review as always! Thank you Mike!
Wow I can't believe 4.2 has been around that long (considering now at 4.4.4 many of the same features are still being used so that makes me more excited for Android Lollipop.) I'm very happy with my Nexus 7 2013 but amazingly the Nexus 10 still is a competitive tablet due to how well it was made compared to my old ASUS TF700 which was garbage right out of the box. I still think the Nexus 10 will remain relevant for some time to come with the addition of Android Lollipop and considering the Nexus 9 will be 4:3. I wish I would have gotten this tablet or the iPad that was out back then over the Transformer.
This is a great unboxing/review. Maybe the best I've seen on the Nexus 10. I can't wait for my device to arrive!
I love ur unboxing , proper details closeup looks of product .... keep it up bro..
Looks like a great tablet, hardware and software. The display is so beautiful and build quality looks top notch. Only drawback would be, as u said, lack of tablet optimised apps, which is slightly disappointing.
Also, I've heard of something called a pogo charger, which uses that port at the bottom. I heard that it charges the tablet faster. They sell it on amazon for $20.
I have no problem with charging, since i do it at nifht, and the battery lasts me all day. My nexus 10 havent gotten less than 40%. It does freeze sometimes, but rarely. Graphics are smooth, speakers r nice and loud. I only wish that this had cellular connectivity and an sd card slot, but other than that, i love it!
It's a great tablet. Hopefully developers can start making tablet friendly apps for android.
It sure is fun to watch your review technique evolving. I always watch even if I am not going to get the product.
Nexus 10 screen looks cool. On my iPad 2 I can sometimes distinguish individual pixels
This thing is way better than the iPad I was thinking about getting a iPad now I'm getting a nexus 10 :)
You've reached 100k Subs! Congratulations! Very well done.. You are very comparable to other tech channels here on UA-cam. We have tld, skb, etc,.. You.. You're different! You go deep inside the topic of the video and not leaving a single feature! You're awesome.. Greetings from The Philippines!
i've heard that those metal panels you talked about are actually magnets that will allow a new cover (they're working on it) to adhere to it. Kinda like ipad's smart cover
@Jekyll Hyde on paper that is. The resolution may be the highest, but the overall quality may not be the best.
I'm loving my nexus 10. I have the dolphin browser uploaded, and it runs smooth on websites
You recommended this to me on twitter, defiantly getting in February ( birthday ) thanks very much!!!!!
Redgry
i envy your life being able to pull off so many plastic covers off fresh new devices o.o
great review as usual! :)
It is Finally back in stock in the U.K but only in 16GB
I dont know how this guy doesnt have more subscribers.
Thanks, sounds like I would be just as happy with the nexus 7.
i will be getting this in spring. thanks for the review!
Oh darn that cover, it's like it's going to break, just like the GNex.
The screen on that is gorgeous
I already have a nexus 7 I'm getting this to complete my nexus tablet family
just ordered mine, thx to ur review.
You took the words right from my mind
I just got one for my 13th birthday on march 7th. along with my new phone upgrade (note 3 to s6 edge)
Cool,dude,and to install Flash just enable unknown sources then install it from the Adobe website
Thank you very much for the response!
Getting this for christmas
thank you i was about to ask the same question love your videos
I have a nexus 10, its awesome. Im using it now
@cytrucker not only that but it runs all games smoothly,even graphic intensive fps shooters. It has a very powerful dual core Exynos CPU and a good MALI GPU. It's much faster than the quad core Tegra 3 and its 12 core geforce GPU (like the one in Nexus 7,which Nexus 10 obliterates performance wise ...though Tegra enhanced games have nicer effects)
I've had an iPad last year, sold it to get a macbook because the iPad was so limited.
I plan to buy a Nexus 10, but i wonder if android really is good as everyone claims.
i´ve been asking the same question. it is apple´s strategy to aim at apple fans that will buy just about everything regardless of how bad it really is. on the other hand, im hoping the mini 2 has what i expect
Ordered my Nexus 10 after watching this review. Thanks! Can;t wait to use it :)
Michael: this might sound crazy, but I think you could charge a Nexus 10 faster with a different USB cable. I suggest you try a Kindle Fire or Nexus 7 charging cable.
I have to say and this will get a million down votes but I still prefer the iPad over any other tablet, it was the first tablet to actually be any good! Android phones are better buy the way! (i
i honestly like the nexus series alot better than samsung series and apple My grandmother would love this
Hey Mike, I'm in the Android eco-system-using HTC Explorer.
Like every time GR8 Video...
you're a great reviewer! Well spoken and well filmed
ok so taking the ipad out of the equation ud choose this over the samsum galaxy note 10.1 and the asus transformer pad? i was leaning towards the note 10.1 but ur review on it made me think lol great videos btw new sub here!!
AFIK the GPU is quad core but the CPU is a next generation Dual Core which is better than quad cores such as the tegra 3
Actually it does make a difference if you have 20-20 vision and look at it closely and the two company's do like to brag but when you said you are not a Apple fanboy I understand completely since Google is in the lead according to the stock market(yes,I pretty much am a Google fanboy).
Finally something beats the Retina Display
im so tempted to break my no rev 1 rule and buy this tablet.
thoughts between the nexus 7 and 10. If you want the device for ereader and web and email reading is the nexus 7 a better device?
@CareerGaming iPad mini, easily. At the end of the day iOS is the far more polished OS, its experienced is unrivalled. And the most important area fora tablet is apps, iOS has got you covered.
Wow, very nice tablet.
Can u show us a comparison with the ipad 4?
I've got the iPad 3 and it looks as if the nexus 10 can win against ipad 4!
Thanks and very good Video!
Greetings from Germany.
*Sees a new video by Mike*
*It's time to get serious*
Thanks for the review Mike...in your opinion between the Nexus 10 and the Asus Infinity...which is the best if the latter be upgraded to JB 4.2?
@Seymakor Mensah me too...also Tegra enhanced games look amazing. And the Nexus 10 has its camera is not in centre ...which is very surprising and I heard is very annoying when doing video chat. Nexus7 has its camera centred perfectly in the middle thank God
you're right man, I also use iOS, but I don't need al those axtra features I know I'm never going to use, iOS is perfect to me. I totally wouldn't complain about a iOS overhaul by Ive, I'd certainly like it, but to me, the Apple ecosystem still is superior to whatever ecosystem.
Top notch review as always.
It would be nice to see Android manufacturers improve build quality. There are two reasons I dont use Android as my main device. The first is the poor plasticky quality of most of them and the second is that my company email can only be accessed with iOS or BB.
even though i love apple, i really seem to like this tablet. apple does need to step its game up in terms of tablets and iOS.
wish I could upgrade to 4.2 on my Motorola Xoom. it was announced that 4.1.2 is the last upgrade for the Xoom.
I have the nexus 7 and I'm an going to upgrade it to the nexus 10
Agree...but you cannot blame Google/Samsung for the apps, the Android developers need to upgrade them to a better resolution :)
I luv long unboxings
So games scaled to fit the tablet work fine? I always here about Android not having tablet optimized apps but I plan to use a tablet for video, gaming, & web browsing only so If gaming isn't an issue I'll pick up one of these. Thanks for the great review!
Good review! although the constant comparison with the iPad is kinda lame.
Great Review and Great Nexus Collection
I don't like how the front facing camera is not centred. You have to hold the tablet a bit sideways to centre yourself if you video chat ...what's up with that?? What's the reasoning behind this decision ? Am I missing something ? My N7 front facing camera is perfectly placed in the exact centre
Can't wait buy one
I'm still debating over it. still considering the iPhone 5....
Anyone else still rocking this tablet?😎
Hey romo, lenovo tab 4 10 or Nexus 10, which one would you prefer if you were me
The bezel IS HUGE!
As always excellent!
happily trade that for front facing stereo speakers. I really loved the Infinity but these issues that are never addressed in updates are really making me want to buy a smaller tablet to use most of the time or get rid of it. Does anyone know if rooting will unlock its potential or is the Nexus 10 all around the better tablet to have? I'd appreciate any advice.
I have an Asus Transformer Infinity (when I bought it I thought it would be great) and in reality it's pretty horrible from what I expected. It almost always lags when opening or multitasking apps, crashes and restarts almost every day, and boot up takes forever. I'm deciding if I should sell it and get the nexus 10 or keep it and root it. I think the nexus build is super ugly but what's inside is what really matters and I could always buy a case. The ininity has a better camera but I'll
I start like this tablet.
Great review!!
Eight hours to charge is unreal!
Screen resolution sounds amazing! Is there any other device out there with such many pixels yet?
Good tablet you know iam also going to review it
Will you be doing a comparison video between this and the note 10.1? :)
you make awesome videos mike
the screen is beautiful
best google tablet yet
ah, that explains alot. Fair call
great detailed video. thanks!
With a 1.9 MP Rear Facing Camera and a 5 MP Front Facing Camera, this tablet does quite well. I really love it. You Will Save $52.26 (13%) when get it on: #amzn.to/1julTR3
thats a rippoff! i got mine on ebay for $232 saved $100!
+Geloskie Used?
Although this tablet isn't yet available to the European market (although I did find a link from UK but at a high price of EUR 500 (GBP 410 exchange rate = 0.82) for a 16Gb version, which is rather expensive when in the US is around US$ 399 (EUR 310 exchange rate = 1.29), I'm inclined at the Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T, not sure which one to pick :/ Asus has already been updated to JB 4.1.1. Well it's gonna be a tough Christmas for me to be able to make a decision, but which one?!? :(
@chuchywoohoo if you've had an iPad, try the nexus 10!
Thanks for this ! I now bought the nexus 10 thanks to you ;p
Sent from my nexus
I agree, GREAT REVIEWS, you could review a rock and make it interesting!!!, Thanx......
