Nexus 10 Leaked

http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/26/google-nexus-10-leaks-android-tablet/
What do you guys think? Ugly but powerful is what I have to say. Exynos 5 Dual is ARM Cortex A15.

If it is priced correctly then it be awesome, but I don't think Samsung would price it cheaper than Note 10.1, unless they are not direct competitors of each other...

Hey fred. I can't wait for it to be announced on monday (hopefully). I will probably be picking one up. It's not the looks, it's specs that get me. Hell it will be in a case anyway lol

Yeah, I was thinking it looks like a Tab 2/Note 10.1 (blech), but the specs are very appealing.

Depending on the amount of storage id give up my Asus for it.

which asus tablet you going give up for this? I might ditch my tf300t if it comes with sd-card slot....
Edit: re-read the article if it's true that it has no sd-card that's going be a bummer:crying:

If they offer more than 16 GB of storage at a reasonable price point I'll replace my Tab2 for this.
Am I the only one glad a manufacturer has finally realized that speakers belong on the front of a device where sound is directed toward the user rather than in some random direction away?

I may get booed for this but I like the phone UI on the N7 and 10. I'm a fan! I wish my 7.7 had that UI. I'm a bigger fan of the specs on the 10. I hope I'm a fan of the price tag though.
Nice thread Fred! :beer:

I actually agree with you. It's not bad if you think about it. The iPad does it and it works fine (sorry to compare to the iPad :silly. It's less cluttered.
And thanks for the compliment. I'm trying to be more useful around the site; I used to help out a LOT and now I find myself lounging in the Marketplace thread way too much.

Am I the only one who thinks it's ugly?

I do too. At least we know what it's based off of:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

If it looks like that, its going to lose sales based on its ugliness alone. If I was looking for a tablet, I'd see the specs of this thing, decide to buy it. Then I actually see it, and im like "ewwwwww"

[DISCUSSION] Best phone you have ever owned?

HTC Desire Bravo ftw. Almost 2 years on this device and it still stands up to my expectations.

iPhone 4S

Google Nexus One. Thanks to Cyanogenmod the phone always stayed up to date software wise. Even CM10, though not officially supported, is being ported by some nice fellows to my great phone. I already consider upgrading, since the displays and the raw CPU power of newer multi-core phones (other people have) makes me jealous sometimes. But in smart phone timescale, my Nexus One had a long life and served me well.

Samsung Galaxy S3 :fingers-crossed:

If anyone had seen one it probably would've been posted here.
From what I've seen most people are buying a case and/or extended battery.
I'm personally getting the Anker SlimAstro 3200mAh battery. Enough for >1 charge but not very bulky.

Your best bet. The battery is non removable. So, you can't uglify your phone by getting an extended battery+ case.

It is removable. It's just not easily removable like a Galaxy nexus.
I imagine if demand is there, some companies could produce replacement rear doors for this phone that could house a larger battery. Would be sweet.

Not the easiest most feasible thing to do.

i have scoured the internet to no avail on this... they still make them for iphone 3gs lol i had one and it was awesome i want one for this beast as well

Power bank makes cases for everything I bet we will see one

Someone need to make a case that holds a removable extended battery and an SD card much like the http://www.iexpander.com/ for the iPhone 5.

There is a different type of battery case that hopefully will be made for Nexus 4's. It's technically an external battery that doubles as a case. I think that's what most of the people on this thread (including me) is looking for.

It's not quite a case, but similar and allegedly compatible with the Nexus 4. I have one on the way and will be testing it out soon. It appears that it will block the camera and/or flash though, so that is a downside to this sort of a solution.

exactly the type of thing i want for my nexus 4

...
I made a BIG portable (10000mAH) battery. when I go on a trip I will take it with my nexus 4

I doubt it nexus phones have a short shelf life, compared to galaxies I'm making my own battery case with a 3d printer

Short shelf life? The Nexus S got Jelly Bean, that's better than any other phone of its generation, and better than some of the next one (*cough*HTC*cough*).

ironically they made the battery case for the nexus s and galaxy nexus but not the most successful nexus...maybe the previous ones didnt sell well so they are hesitant.

I'm betting we will get one soon

Wow, thanks for the heads up on this. Expensive, but a nice solution.

"Google" branded desktop stand for Nexus 4

I just spent 3 days at an annual client conference with our Google support team. Every year the Google reps bring cool swag for us to give away. This year they had these branded phone/tablet stands. As you'd probably guess they went like hot cakes but I made sure to snag a couple before the crowds had their pick. The design is extremely simple but works perfectly. One of the Google reps and myself spent some of our down time trying to see how much weight these things could handle. We were surprised to see how well it held up with 10lb objects.
It works perfectly with every phone we tried as well as the Nexus 7 and an iPad. I never thought I'd use a desktop stand but this works so well that I'll definitely use it at the office.
Anyway, here are some pics...

Oh, and for the record, even the Google reps were jealous that I got my hands on a Nexus 4. So feel special because this go around even the Google employees didn't get one. :highfive:

Cool. A drag that it's not available to everyone.

They were actually surprised when I told them that people would probably pay for these. I told them they should throw them up on the Google Play Store but they didn't think there would be any real demand.

That's nice me like

I totally want one of these!

Tons of companies were giving out this at CES. Obviously with a different brand name on it. There's a couple different ones, this style white/blue with the triangle style folding, also there's a more simple gray/black one that the stand rotates 360 onto itself so it's flat, I got that one.
I'm sure you can find these dang cheap on eBay.

Not to pooh pooh the excitement but these stands are pretty standard giveaways in the promotional swag world. I've got one myself but not "branded" with Google on it.

It's funny you should mention that. I was at a party a couple of weeks ago and this guy there was telling me he works at Google doing some Android stuff, so I pull out my phone. Then we head a super geek moment, talking Android and the Nexus 4, and he was saying how pretty much nobody at Google that he knows has the Nexus 4 and he has only seen his supervisor with one.

[Discussion] What phone do you wish you had?

i have always wanted to tear into a Nexus One or a Nexus S i dont care about teh specs
what about you guys? what phone have you always wanted? old or new it doesn't matter.

I really wish I was repping that Nexus 5 (or 4 2013 apparently) or Note 3. Gotta save your pennies!

Definitly the Galaxy Note 3.
I don't want a phone under 5.5 inches and without pen anymore.
I would love to see the Note 3 with 6.3 inches (like the Mega) cause I really love this size for a display but this didn't happend at all.
So I've to wait for Note 4 or Note 5 or Note 6 (every year 0.2 inches more since the first Note)

I would like to have a Galaxy s4! But it costs too much for me, so I'm going to keep my s2

I would like a phone with great specs and a "small" screen:
Something like a Snapdragon 600 or 800 processor, or A9.
At least 1GB of RAM, the more the better.
At least 8GB, better 16GB of internal storage.
And a screen of 4.3", no more. I think a great resolution is 1280 x 720. I don't think a better resolution (1080p) worths it.
And a metallic cover (no more plastic, please).
In top of that, I'm short on cash, so I need a phone which isn't very expensive.
Impossible, I think.

Good
