Google is at it again, after it had created the market mover Nexus 7 that set a standard for the smaller tablet industry, it has finally created a product that could boldly stand the iPad, and contend with it in a bigger way. I am happy to announce to you the arrival of the NEXUS 10!
The Nexus 10 arrives, cheaper than the iPad by a whooping of $100. It has officially been debuted, and it packs a lot of interesting features, the screen resolution is bigger than the retina display, it has a whole lot of 300 pixels per inch. The tablet is created to transform the tablet market and finally Apple has got something to get challenge of, the whole of the Nexus 10 is made by Samsung.
Let’s check out the features that makes the Nexus 10 an iPad killer
Hardware
The Nexus 10 tablet is powered by a dual core, 1.7 GHz Exynos Samsung processor. In the chip is a quad core GPU, this makes the display exceptional from other market tablets.

Display
The 10 inch Nexus 10 tablet has a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, bigger than the retina display. This brings a near perfect sharp imaging, more than 4 million pixels. It beats the iPad hands down which only has 264 pixels per inch. It also flogs the closest competitor, the Kindle Fire HD which is 8.9 inch.
Connectivity
Google had invested on the microUSB, microHDMI, and Wi-Fi. Nothing is heard about 4G or LTE yet for the Nexus 10.
Camera
Google was wise this time around; it never replicated the error it made in the Nexus 7 by including only a 12 MP front camera. This time around, like the iPad 4, the Nexus 10 carries a primary rear facing 5 MP camera, and went ahead to also place a video chatting camera at the front which has upgraded to a 1.9 MP
Sound
Google has packaged on the Nexus 10 a two front facing stereo speakers, that will probably beat the iPad in prediction.
