Google Nexus 10 review: Android's most promising iPad alternative


 

 

CNET Editors' Rating

4.0 stars Excellent

The good: The Nexus 10 has a beautifully sharp screen, is light, durable, and has the fastest processor of any Android tablet. Photo Sphere is an incredibly cool concept. Google's content ecosystem is only getting better.

The bad: The included charger isn't fast enough to power the battery while playing a game and even while idle charges painfully slowly. There's no storage expansion option and apps that take full advantage of the screen are currently few and far between. Navigating isn't quite as seamless as on the Nexus 7.

The bottom line: The Nexus 10's superior design and swift performance make it one of the best Android tablets to date. We expect post-launch updates from Google to make it even better.
