Nexus 10 Completely Leaked, Features Android 4.2, 2560×1600 Display, 2GB RAM And More

Google is expected to announce a deluge of Nexus devices this fall, and as well as the prospect of an even cheaper Nexus 7, the Big G is also expected to release a Nexus 10 tablet. Details with regards to the slate have been arriving in dribs and drabs, and today, we’ve got what appears to be a legit photograph of the device.

It may well have been faked, but on this occasion, somebody will have had to put in an incredible amount of work to manipulate the images, so I think it’s relatively safe to say we’re looking at the Nexus 10.



The Nexus 7, which released earlier this year, has been a rousing success. With prices starting at $199, it was always going to grab the headlines, but in actual fact, it’s proven itself to be more than just a cheap alternative. A quad-core processor, buttery smooth Android 4.1 and a very sharp screen has made the Nexus 7 the perfect springboard for the aforementioned flurry of upcoming Nexus tablets, and the Nexus 10 looks to be one of the first.

BriefMobile looks to have gotten its hand on a version of the 10.1-inch slab, and as well as pushing out some legit-looking images, has done what few leakers seem to manage – turned it on and revealed some of the key specs! The Nexus 10 packs in an impressive dual-core 1.7GHz Samsung Exynos 5250, Mali-T604 GPU, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage space (non-expandable, it would seem), and a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera.









On top of that, the Nexus 10 includes NFC and Wi-Fi connectivity, and Bluetooth 4.0. The real clincher of the device, however, is the 2,560 x 1,600 res. super AMOLED panel, and although the term "Retina" is one frequently used by Apple (well, not in the case of the iPad mini, but I digress), the 298.9 ppi of the Nexus 10 places it firmly within the boundaries of a Retina display.

With such mixed reviews with regards to the iPad mini, and many iPad owners irritated by the Cupertino’s decision to bring a forth-gen iPad out so soon after the iPad 3, the market could really do with the release of a solid Android tablet. With the Nexus 10 also set to run on Android 4.2, many consumers will be anxious for its grand unveiling, and although we don’t have a price bracket just yet, the early signs are certainly good.

Reads good, juts need an idea of pricing.

[beerman]

If this is £300 or under I'll be buying one.

[Chubbs]

£250 would be my limit.

Looks like no HDMI out or memory card slot though

[beerman]

I don't use HDMI out on my current Motorola Xoom so doubt I'd miss it. No SD slot is a bit of a mistake but then who's going to buy a 32GB version when the 16GB version + an SD card could give you the same storage.

Edit:
The manual seems to suggest there is a hdmi port

Sign me up for a 32gb model then.

This is a definite purchase when released, with partnering with Samsung a lot of the dev costs should have been taken care of so we might see pricing well under the iPad. There's also a 32gb Nexus 7 with 3G in the mix as well. Unfortunatley it looks like the Google conference is cancelled due to Hurricane Sandy.

With google being as aggressive as they have been with the Nexus 7 pricing i think apple will be in for a tough fight compared to the pricing of the iPad mini and the New iPad. Going to be a strong lineup for Android.

I wish HTC would release a decent tab - I like the solid, hard-wearing feel of their kit.

Unfortunately... I have to agree....

I don't want a fucking frame around my tablet. Although it would have to be something spectacular to get me to purchase another tablet.
