[Q] Nexus 10 $190 at Walmart? To buy or not to buy... - Nexus 10 General

I found a nexus 10 for 190 32gb new at walmart. I only have a touchpad running 4.4.4 that is just OK. This tablet is 2 years old though, so is it a good buy?

My opinion would be yes.

If I could justify buying a second Nexus 10, I would. Get it! At that price? Get it! Get it! Get it!:good:

Yes. That sounds like a steal.

Does it matter that it is not quad core? I like everything else about it except how it will stand up to the future.

If you want to future proof it you just have to change the resolution to 1080p, boom, your tablet now runs the same way as a SGS4

That's how much I got mine for back around the firesale times. That was without a case. Realistically, this is probably one of the best tabs you could get for $250 new

I think it's a good deal. I was fortunate enough to get our Touchpads on day 1 of the fire sale, but with ICS loaded on here and more and more apps available for it, $250 is still a steal.
Surprised there are even still any brand new tabs. Where have they been hiding them?

I see another Note 7 being discussed but it is the GT-N7000 and this a GT-N5100. I may bypass the Note 2 after seeing this.

It doesn't say whether it's a phone or tablet
sent from my lovely phone....hmmm wait its a tablet...waaa i dont really know.....im PARANOID NoW!
It looks to much like our Note to be a tablet. Wishful thinking.
Maybe the 7100 is a tablet and the 5100 is a phone.
I hope its just a little brother to the 10.1 that I really wanted and never got because of its ridiculous price.

I guess being an artist, it only sounds logical to even consider buying a tablet if it has a pen to draw on. At least that's how I justify the money since my note can do all the work I need anyways. If they come out with a affordable GNote tablet I will buy it and then shift my phone to the next Nexus device after the Nexus 4. That way I can stay at the top of development for my phone rather then waiting forever for updates and at the same time have something to draw on. Honestly, the galaxy note is still too small for me to draw elaborate drawings on.
That picture is an I717 ....running GB 2.3.6
Probably a demo unit too....
Likely a 7 inch note would not be a phone ...g

My 7" Samsung tab is also a phone. It depends on the modem chipset.
I've read enough now that I believe that this new 5100 will be more of a tablet.
There have been rumors of a smaller version of the GNote 10.1 so this is most likely it.
if/when it comes out internationally.... it will have phone radios....and a green phone tile on the home row....

Yeah right. No way it will be 249. The nexus 7 is 249. The nexus 10 will have to probably be same as first version. 399 for 16 GB and 499 for 32 GB. (Maybe you meant euros?) I don't know where your from but I'm talking about dollars. Anyways I think 100 bucks for 16 GB is too much more. But the cheapest variant will most likely be 399.
If there even is one because it hasn't been confirmed its just being assumed there will be a new version. Google could just make a whole new tablet

Yeah... No way Google is gonna downgrade the display, that's one of their sales points for the n10, its 2560x1600 (something like that) display
Sent from my Nexus 4 [NEO @1.836 GHz] on [PSX v4.1 4.3]
I've also seen articles saying 299... makes me question the quality of the tablet if it's set at that price.
For Snapdragon 800 I believe it's true, also 3GB RAM too. Now 1080p screen? Are you kidding me or what? Nexus 10 made it fame for its 2560x1600 screen, which is the main point for me buying mine. Also another thing we need to know is who will produce it. I wonder if will be Samsung again or Asus, if Samsung, it's pretty sure we will see an Exynos processor, like the current Nexus 10.
I don't mind paying 399 or 499 if its well built. I'd take that over a 299 device that's neutered for sure. I'm hoping there's a 64gb option.

Pretty sure it's been confirmed to be ASUS.
There's no way the new Nexus 10 is being released for $299. The new Nexus 7 was released for $229, which was $29 more than the original Nexus 7.
I'm guessing $399-$429 for the base model.
The screen will be 2560x1600, since the new Asus Transformer Pad Infinity (TF701T) has a 2560x1600 screen. No sense for Asus to make a lower res screen for a new tablet.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the new Nexus 10 is just the TF701T without the keyboard.
Do you think the Nexus 10 2 will in fact be released this month or next month?

Yeah that it what I was thinking as well. I need a tablet now though. So its either a Nexus 10 or a Asus Memo Pad FHD. The Nexus is about $360 and the Asus is about $300
Nexus 5 will be unveiled in October the 14th. I can see them unveiling the Nexus 10 2 as well just like last year. Remember last year's unveiling was delayed by a hurricane and when the unveiling came Google produced all both devices and 4.2 at the same event.
It will be kit kat, N5 and N10 all on the same date I'm pretty certain.
Roll on the 14th.

I think my Nexus 10 prediction may be wrong as there have hardly been any leaks yet and there have been numerous nexus 5 leaks.
I think the Nexus 10 will be released in November. There is a redesign of the Play Store to accommodate tablet apps on 21st of November which may coincide with a tablet release.

No I can wait about 2 weeks. I need one by the end of this month. I do have a feeling though that they will only release the Nexus 5 this month and the Nexus 10 2 next month towards the end. Then I would have to pick a tablet before then.

So the Nexus 5 came out on Oct 31st but still no word on the Nexus 10 2. Is this coming anytime soon or even exist? I really hope it comes ASAP because I've been waiting about 2 months for this thing. My only other options are the Nexus 10 2012 and the Note 10.1 2014

Who's getting the nexus 5?

Just curious to see what you guys think of the upcoming nexus 5, planning to buy? Why or why not

Not upgrading.. N4 is still fine.. N5 is a marginal upgrade at best.. Skipping a generation is always best unless you're a gamer or benchmark junky.
Selling my GS4 and picking one up. I'll miss having a external memory card and battery, but pure google without rooting is calling me.

Looking for a new tablet...

I've been looking in to buying myself a tablet, but I want one that's fast and smooth running. Ipad is great because of how smooth it runs and transisittions between pages, but I want something that my S4 can interact with. Any suggestions? I'd like to root and flash ROMs on whatever tablet I end up with so obviously ipad and surface are out. I don't know much about any of the others out there so any help would be fantastic!

One of the new Nexus 7's possibly? It's pretty much universally agreed that it's the best if not one of the best Android tablets on the market right now. Also, it's super easy to unlock the bootloader since it's a Nexus device and the development community around it is huge.

Agreed, I had the first generation Nexus 7 and absolutly loved it! Im hoping to get the 2nd gen somewhat soon. And they are very cheap compared to iJunk tablets
I thought the Nexus devices were phones.... Am I just that dumb? Lol... Can these tablets be purchased at a best buy or only online?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
There are actually 2 Nexus tablets on the market right now... the Nexus 7 and the Nexus 10. The 2013 Nexus 7 is an excellent tablet you can buy directly from the Play Store or other places online. The Nexus 10 is also worth considering if you want a bigger tablet, and it also has the BEST speakers of any tablet on the market. Personally, I'm waiting for them to come out with the "updated" Nexus 10 like they did with the Nexus 7. Either way, as far as Android tablets go, they are both winners. The only other tablet I would recommend taking a look at is the new Samsung Note 10.1 - it has a gorgeous display and all of the productivity power of the Note software and stylus. It's just a little too pricey in my book though.

Yeah I think a bunch of these devices had wifi issues. Pop on over to the Nexus 7 (2013) forum on XDA for details. The 7's are great and inexpensive but ASUS isn't exactly known for their QC. Good luck!
