Google Nexus 10, in-depth analysis
It's a seemingly simple tablet. We say apparent because Samsung , responsible for device hardware, has decided to integrate the Nexus October 1 of the best processors currently has laboratory. We refer to the Samsung Exynos 5250 dual core, much more powerful than any he had seen before. With the arrival of the new Nexus 10, Google aims to challenge the market for tablets with a proposal unparalleled. And is that besides having a heart truly privileged, the Nexus 10 incorporates a large 10-inch screen in high definition, useful for viewing high quality content and enjoy the latest applications and games that have flooded the market.
How could it be otherwise, well, Google has taken the presentation of this Nexus 10, and also the Nexus 4, to unveil the new edition of its successful operating system: Android . It is, as you can imagine, the Android version 4.2, in this case known as Jelly Bean, whose purpose is to offer users a more complete experience aboard their terminals. Concretaremos later, but now we are ready to move forward that we will see significant improvements in the camera section, keyboard, connectivity and of course, on the overall performance of the Nexus 10 and the other devices that are already advantaged part of the Google family. Here, we present a thorough analysis, complete with photos, videos and reviews of the new Nexus 10. Fancy a look?
Design and Display
True to its design story line, the company Google has introduced a device that complies with the architecture perfectly so far supported by pieces like the Nexus 7, the seven-inch tablet has already released a few months ago, or the Nexus 4 , the fourth-generation Nexus smartphone freshly baked. And although the design is worked from the same factories (Nexus 7 is the brainchild of Asus , the Nexus 4 of LG and the Nexus 10 Samsung ) devices are presented in a very coherent in the catalog of the firm, design being one of its most discreet. Complies with dimensions of 263.9 x 177.6 x 8.9 mm and weighs around 603 grams. You see, this is a piece slightly heavier than usual, detail by which we must consider its screen, higher dimensions and the large number of pieces housed within, whose weight has also been considerable. It comes in a discreet black, in a format very rounded and made of plastic materials, details that give it a nice touch and very comfortable holding.
The screen is, undoubtedly, one of its most important elements. It comes with an IPS LCD capacitive LED screen with a size of 10.055 inches (diagonal), approaching the size of the classic Samsung tablets with dimensions of 10.1 inch reach. In any case, the Nexus 10 has a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 WQXGA pixel, one of the highest (if not most) of the tablets that have been presented so far. It has a density of 300 pixels per inch and a depth of 16 million colors. For the occasion, Google has chosen a high quality glass that will protect the structure of the device from accidental bumps and scratches. It is, how could it be otherwise, a glass Corning Gorilla Glass 2, well known for its high strength and quality.
Connectivity
The Nexus 10 is a tablet exclusively designed for those who know they are going to connect to the Internet through a wireless connection. And is that the device does not save network support 2G or 3G, so much so, that the tablet does not incorporate a slot to accommodate a SIM card. To advance in the technical data, need to indicate that in fact, the Nexus 10 supports wireless networking 802.11 a / b / g / n, a protocol that will allow users to access the Internet through the wireless network you have available home, in the workplace or in any hotel room that offers, for example. Additionally, the device incorporates the Wifi Direct for quicker transfer of files, and compatibility with Bluetooth 4.0 with A2DP and NFC (Near Field Communication) for file transfer via short-range communications. With one touch, the device will be able to transfer information to another. We'll see if later popularized fashion spreads or paying with our tablets or smartphones. For now, this feature is still very green.
In any case, we should note that the company wanted to offer direct access to all services - or most - that are available for free with a Google account. We refer to Google Search, Maps, Gmail, YouTube, Calendar, Google Talk and pikes. You'll find these standard applications installed on your tablet, but you can also download other programs through Google Play.
On the external connections, we should note that the Nexus 10 has a headphone output of 3.5 mm, and a microUSB input to connect the device to your computer and sync content, charge your battery and so on. It also has an entry microHDMI that will be highly useful for those who are especially interested in the management of multimedia content.
Camera and multimedia
Unlike other tablets, the Google camera incorporates a high quality. In fact, you'll see that the main camera has a five megapixel sensor, useful for capturing images of 2592 x 1936 pixels. But that's not all. In addition to having this capability, the system of the camera incorporates a number of additional features that work in favor of good quality snapshots. We refer, no doubt, to the functions of auto focus, geo-tagging, touch focus and face detection. It has LED Flash, useful for capturing in low light situations or even at night, plus the ability to record HD movies (1080p @ 30fps). The secondary camera on the front (of course) has a two-megapixel sensor and is a great support for those who want to make video calls often.
In the multimedia section, the Nexus 10 also carries phenomenal. We show that, like almost all smartphones and tablets, the device is quite skilled at playing music, video and photos in major formats. In its data sheet specifies the following: MPEG4, H.263, H.264, VC-1, DivX, WMV7, WMV8, VP8, 3GP, ASF, AVI, MP4, WMV, FLV, MKV, WebM, MP3, AAC , AC-3, AMR, FLAC, MID, WMA, WAV. Best of all is that we shall play HD movies to enjoy programs, concerts and recordings that may be of interest. Furthermore, we shall transfer to larger screens to enjoy the content with the whole family, living comfortably in our home.
Memory, processor and operating system
Nexus 10 comes in two different versions, depending on the capacity of the piece. We will be able to purchase the edition of 16 GB and 32 GB, a detail that should be taken into account explicitly. Do not forget that this device does not include a microSD slot that can serve to extend the user memory. The processor, Exynos 5250 dual core 1.7 GHz Cortex A-15 combines its great potential with a graphics processor Mail-T604 GPU and RAM as complete, 2 GB that will be a good mattress for performance upper apparatus. It should be remembered, as we said at the beginning that the Exynos 5250 processor has been developed and manufactured by Samsung itself, which would be one of his best pieces according to experts.
One of the main changes introduced by Google, apart from the devices you already know, is the new version of Android. We refer of course, to Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean). For the occasion, Google has made some major improvements to come in this new version (standard on the Nexus 10 and Nexus 4): new function to get photos Photo Sphere spherical 360 degrees, a new integrated keyboard, which works the same that the Swype keyboard, multi function tablet, open different accounts for the same team, sharing content via wireless to transfer content on larger screens, Daydream, a new screensaver, more features in the notification bar, to control missed calls, received messages and updates on social networks and even Google Now, with major improvements to book restaurants, hotels and consult confirm ticket information, for example.
Autonomy and availability
The autonomy of the devices is very important for all users who try to make the most of their smartphones and tablets. In this case, Google has opted for a high capacity battery. Talking about a piece of lithium ions with 9,000 milliampere allow us to keep alive our tablet during an important time, but not possible for us to specify the number of hours of operation. In fact, Google has shown neither. Keep in mind, however, that the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 manufactured by Samsung has a memory of 7,000 milliamps. With the screen off, the battery can last several weeks, but the fact is that under heavy load or normal autonomy will wane.
And what about its availability?, You ask. Well, the Nexus 10 will go on sale through Google Play (the app store and devices has opened the company to directly market their parts). In this case, the two versions of 16 GB and 32 GB will start selling from next November 13, just in a couple of weeks, also in the Spanish store. Editing 16GB cost 400 euros and the 32 GB, $ 500, free form logically.
