With the launch of the iPad and iPad mini constantly adding pressure to the Android camp, after the early launch of the Nexus 7, Google launched the Nexus 10 non-stop to supplement the product line to counter the pressure of Apple's constant addition. The Nexus 10 continues the style of the Nexus 7, and carries the latest Android 4.2 in the style of a consistent pro son. Now let's take a look at Theverge's comments on the Nexus 10. First of all, let's take a look at the appearance design of the eldest son! Google has won the attention of many users by allowing its Nexus 10 to provide superior performance and affordable prices, making them gradually fall in love with Android. In addition to being cheaper than the iPad, it can give priority to Google's own system updates over other Android tablet devices. Now let's join the editors of Theverge to see how the Nexus 10 is going!

Since the Nexus 7, Google has shocked the 7-inch tablet market. Maybe this is the best Android tablet. The new Nexus 10 is aimed at the new iPad. The biggest selling point of Nexus 10: its high-definition retina quality display screen is better than the new iPad. And, try to achieve a longer battery life, plus that quad core processor and only $399. Let's take a look at the in-depth analysis of Nexus 10!

Hardware design:

The beauty of Google's hardware design. Unlike the iPad, starting from the Nexus 7, the Nexus series tablets do not have sharp edges, but all have smooth corners and curved back designs. Maybe this is what makes many girls like the Nexus series products, and it will be very comfortable to hold them. Compared with the metal case of the iPad, the metal case of the Nexus 10 will feel warmer and more comfortable. It will be very uncomfortable to hold the cold metal iPad in winter. After all, the stinging pain is still very uncomfortable, and the Nexus 10 case will not appear this embarrassment in winter. If you wear a cover on your iPad, you can ignore this. I will feel that the Nexus 10 is more comfortable, and its round corner design will not be as abrupt as the iPad. The appearance and feel of the Nexus 10 is very similar to that of the Nexus 7. The Nexus 10 has a good hand feel, especially on the back. It feels soft. There is a plastic strip for communication on the top of the Nexus 10, which is the same as other Samsung tablets, showing the purity of Samsung blood. There is also a large "Nexus" on the back to indicate his son's blood origin, and the smaller "Samsung" logo below indicates that Samsung is a good friend of Google. Although the Nexus 10 is cheap, it doesn't mean that Google didn't bother to design it. It also makes people feel that it is an elaborate device. In many aspects, I like its design, because its plastic shell will be more comfortable than the iPad in winter, and will not have the cold feeling of metal. In addition, there are two slender speakers on both sides of the screen of the Nexus 10, which provide stereo function to enable you to have a better audio and video experience (which is not available on the iPad). In addition, the weight of the Nexus 10 is equivalent to that of the iPad, and the 8.9mm thickness is even better than the iPad. Its power key button is at its top edge. 3.5mm headphone jack and Micro USB interface on the left A Micro HDMI jack is lonely on the right There are 6 metal contacts at the bottom for connecting to other peripherals. It should be possible to connect the charging base and external keyboard, but it seems that there is no similar product launched at present.

Screen: Let your eyeballs enjoy the feast!

The high-definition screen of the Nexus 10 will brighten your eyes, and you will certainly want to know who is better than the screen of the Nexus 10 and the screen of the iPad 4. The Nexus 10's screen is absolutely amazing. Its incredible 2560 x 1600 resolution (300PPI, iPad 4 2048x1536 resolution 264PPI) high-definition screen makes the text look very sharp. Its visual angle is very good, you can put it on your chest and lie on the bed, still can watch the movie comfortably. But at the same time, it also brought confusion. Just like when the iPad first used the Retina display screen, the biggest problem of the Nexus 10 screen is that in the past, a large number of applications were designed as 4-inch screens with a resolution of 800 × 480, so many of them would appear blurred on the Nexus 10. This high-definition display still needs some time for those "HD" applications to fill its desktop.

Take a look at the contrast between the Nexus 10 and the iPad 4 and Nexus 7 screens.

About software:

With the launch of the new Nexus 10, Google has provided a new version of the Android operating system - Android 4.2, which is still called jelly beans because of little change. Most of the changes in the new operating system are detailed, and Google is still trying to improve and perfect every aspect of the Android system. The changes in camera software are most obvious. Now you can operate the whole thing with your thumb. This is very smart, so that the whole thing can be operated with one hand. To be honest, I think fast access is a good function. You can quickly change the brightness of the screen, switch wireless devices, and jump to the full settings menu by sliding down the notice bar of the Nexus 10 on the right side of the menu. Google has also made many changes in the input method. The addition of Swype input adds color to it, but as an Android device, Swype is easily implemented through third-party software. However, in most cases, Android 4.2 is faster, smoother, and more reliable than ever. Therefore, I am very happy to use the new version of jelly beans.

Performance and battery life:

The high pixel screen will affect the performance of the Nexus 10, but this time it is suspicious. The Android platform is constantly improving, The Exynos 5250 processor based on Cortex-A15 architecture is undoubtedly excellent. The Nexus 10 is the fastest, fluent, most reliable and powerful Android tablet I have ever used (I'm sure I have used all of them.) When I cross the main screen, applications can appear faster. Multitasking is a highlight. Even if more than 20 applications are opened, it seems that the system does not slow down. When I first used the Nexus 10, I spent a day and a half downloading 20GB movies and games, installing programs, watching movies, and playing games. At the end of the next day, I thought, "Oh my God, I bet the battery will die!" It still had 48%.

In our benchmark test, although he was slightly lower than Nexus 7 in the Vellamo run because of the high-definition screen, it is an indisputable fact that Nexus 10 won the top of the leaderboard.
