We first heard that Google was working on a tablet

called the Nexus 10 this past summer and now it looks

like it?s close to becoming a reality. The Italian Android

HD Blog found a picture on Picasa that purportedly

provides more details on the device and shows that it

will have a 10-inch display with a resolution of

2560 ? 1920 pixels, or around 299 pixels-per-inch.

No word yet on who?s manufacturing this new Nexus

tablet, but previous rumors suggest that it will be

Samsung.

Edit: The above picture is a mock-up I took from the web.

Android Hardware >> Windows hardware. Why why why?!?!

Because android considerably more popular than any mobile device with windows on it.

Why? Because manufacturers don't have to pay for the Android software.

They don't pay for the OS, but they pay to use Google apps, like Gmail and search and also for market access.

Android Hardware >> Windows hardware. Why why why?!?!

Because Android is more open, and OEMs can do whatever they want with it.

With WP7 they have to follow specific guidelines.

On the other hand, this model also has disadvantages. With OEMs forcing Android on extremely low level hardware, leading to horrible user experience.

Why? Because manufacturers don't have to pay for the Android software.

They do. To Microsoft.

Microsoft charges OEMs around $15 per Android device. That's about the same as the license cost for WP7. So, there's no difference whether they produce Android phones or Window phones.

The difference lies in the openess of Android. They don't follow any hardware guidelines. As soon as some newer technology comes, they implement it, and modify the software themselves. (This is what fragmentation is partly about. )

Yes they do. Android itself is free but if you want any Google services (maps, marketplace, etc) you must pay per device.

do you have a source for that? google service apps has to be licensed from google but OEM pay nothing.

google need these services in Android to make profit.

Asrokhel, the OP says an Italian blog found a picture, but that the linked picture was not the same one.

Funny thing is, I didn't see the image attached to the OP, because the image link is broken, I was talking about the image you see on the BGR article!

If you're referring to this picture:

That's a Nexus 7.

Regarding the original post on Android HD, you were right. It would appear that there were two 'leaks' concerning the Nexus 10/X. The one on Android HD was a picture taken with what they claim to be a Nexus 10 based on the EXIF data.

DAAAWWWM!! Isn't that a kick in the PPI pants to Microsoft. Now with Tablets MS has shown that instead of competing in real-time with Android and iOS they are going to lag with last year's technology. Surface v1.0 bad price for an already out-dated product. Surface v2.0 next year, might be worth getting...

You just contradicted yourself there. I don't have a source at hand but that's how Google makes money from Android (and obviously with Playstore).

**** just got real guys :woot:

Dawg, you're looking at it wrong :shiftyninja:

No, i didn't contradict. you just didn't understand. Licensing not always mean getting paid for providing a service.

There are free licensing. you have to get permission to use it but dont have to pay for it.

    • I like Tidal, but it still does not control devices from the mobile/app and still no surround support. And yeah re: above comment I still get a lot of network errors and I am on a 4/4 Gbit Fiber connection.
    • Aren`t "security features" and "AI model that can see your screen" a tad diametric!
    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
