KDTUpdate: The Nexus 10 uses neither an AMOLED nor Pentile display but rather Samsung's own IPS_on_steroids SuperPLS display, or what they call a "True RGB Real Stripe PLS" display which offers wider viewing angles and 10% more brightness than LG?s IPS panels. It's nearly 300 ppi (299) outshines Apple's LG made 264 ppi display, and is powered by Samsung's Exynos 5250 (dual-core ARM Cortex-A15, Mali T604 graphics core, 32nm process technology) clocked at 1.70GHz.

The Google Nexus 10 tablet is here running 4.2 Jelly Bean OS,
2560x1600 HD display (I think it's AMOLED),
So you "think" its AMOLED when the article you linked to said....
"There's no confirmation of rumors that the display uses AMOLED rather than IPS technology,"
Besides that, Android has never been known to have great graphics performance. I can't imagine how bad the GPU performance will be on this thing.FlintKDT
$499. The price points smoke Apple for this quality of a display.
Without actually seeing the display, or knowing anything about the graphics performance?
Goal post shift. I was making an a *mini iPad* and *Nexus 10* price/performance comparison. While a mini ipad may be an ipod touch *XL*, I do get to use a similar dodge Apple fanboys used against 7" tablets when their beloved lord Jobs still walked the Earth: It's even less likely an 8" mini ipad will fit in anything but a large jacket pocket.FlintKDT
Who would be nuts enough to buy a RetinaLESS $329 iPad mini/iPod Touch
XL when for only $70 more, they can have a 10" HD display greater than
Apple's latest iPad?
Yeah, so who ever buy a media player that you can fit in your pocket (i.e. the iPod Touch) instead of a 10" tablet..... I don't think they make armbands large enough for a tablet....
