I was searching the web for someone comparing these two as I am in the market for a 10 inch table soon. Thank you so much for your clear and concise review of these two products. I am going with the Nexus 10 after watching this. I have a Nexus 4 that I am in love with and I am sure I will love the Nexus 10 just as much.
Hi Taylor, just wanted to let you know that I read your biography yesterday night and you really inspired me to follow my dreams. Thanks! Keep on doing what you do best!
No, I definitely feel ICS was better for tablets than Jelly Bean, but when you compare these two, specifically, the Nexus 10 feels much more optimized. All about context. ^TM
Have been using Nexus 10 for about a half a year. It is just perfect! I love it! Would never change it to TouchWiz Samsung tablet or anything else. Maybe on the second generation of Nexus 10 only.
Sad as it may sound choosing a tablet was entirely too stressful and took me many weeks. I kept coming back to the nexus 10 and finally pulled the trigger. I've owned mine for almost 5 months now and couldn't be happier. A year ago I wouldn't have considered an android tab over iOS but the game has and continues to change.
i want a tab for average use more for gaming like dead trigger 2. which of the three tabs would you guys recommend. the tab 2 or 3 from galaxy or nexus 10? i have an s4 and i dont wanna feel like im dropping in graphics and speed or display =/
Taylor Martin, will there be an upcoming new Nexus 10? I was thinking about getting the Nexus 10 but scared a new one is coming soon with better specs.
@Nicole F. ...no. It needs the touchwiz framework . Ask around on xda if somebody is willing to make a "port" of touchwiz to stock android ...though either way,touchwiz specific functions cannot work in a non-touchwiz system. This means no smart stay,hand gestures ,eye tracking,ir remote etc.
@skarseld that is a good point and I agree they didn't make any effort in making the Tablet UI. However the hybrid UI on the Nexus 7 is excellent and works well,makes sense and just feels good. Then they got lazy and didn't make a new UI for the Nexus 10
I was surprised you compared performance between the two without every mentioning the Exynos needs to render 4 times the amount of pixels compared to the Atom. I noticed dramatic stuttering in your video. It really pains me to see these performance issues on the latest android tablets are still quite prevalent.
Yeah, it was supposed to be a reply to a guy giving Apple crap for having Samsung make the retina display. My point was, no company is going to make ALL of the software and hardware for their products, so giving Apple a hard time about it is pointless.
Nexus 10 rocks...That resolution alone blows away the competition. I've just read that Asus will be making the new Nexus 10 with a possible release date set for the holidays.
I feel this was a tablet made to capitalize on the Galaxy name. By using cheap materials, and low specs for a tablet aside from its processor, they would make more $ on cheap tablet sold. Perhaps next year Samsung will make a tablet that aside from a Nexus that can seriously compete against the number one tablet to beat which is the iPad.
I couldn't agree with You more. ICS was the best, but Nexus 10 is still better than the Galaxy Tab 3. At least You can use the Nexus 10 in portrait mode. ;)
Makes you wonder what Samsung is playing at......Apple has retina large ipads, Sony is making full HD xperia tablets that are waterproof and samsung has just reproduced a Galaxy Tab which isn't markedly different from my original Galaxy tab 10.1
People need to stop with the "iPad is better" comments. This video was made to compare top of the line Samsung manufactured Android tablets ANDROID tablets!!! The Nexus 10 still sounds like the better deal. I'm going to wait and see what the Nexus 10 successor is going to bring to the table. Hopefully, Google will shed some light on this soon. Great video, Taylor. You seem to be doing well over at pocketnow.
9:50 "The Nexus 10 has a software that feels like it was made for tablets.". I lol'd. With navigation buttons in the middle and notifications shade on the top left it's impossible to use it for me.
not many people would buy this. aside from that, it would also limit their bag of goodies farther down the road which would together result in heavy losses. why do this now, when they can do the same thing later, sell it cheaper, and get more sales?
I just wish android had better tablet apps. I tend to stick with my iPad just because of the apps. I live android on my phone however. Might grab the new nexus 7 to add to my tablet collection though.
Well then I will most likelly be infuriated by the limitations and upgrade to a more expensive one to soon :) I'm not sure if refurbished versions are available in scandinavia. But for now I'll stay out of the tablet game with the excuse that I should use my money for food and cloths as a student :)
Just got a nexus 10, resolution is amazing, but the colors are horrible, my galaxy tab 2 is way more vibrant, did a vid where I compared the color difference beetween nexus 10 and ipad 4
Unless the Tab 3 isn't supposed to be a high end tablet, I don't see how they couldn't beat the Nexus 10. Especially when it's their own product. They couldn't outdo themselves?
Wow wtf the Nexus 10 lags so much ...my Nexus 4 never lags. Even my Nexus 7 doesn't lag so much in the app drawer (although the 4.2.2 update really crippled it...wtf was Google thinking )

Love the new layout in your new apartment. Congrats for that. At the end, I think there was a little eco. Thanks for a great video
Thanks! ^TM
Nice new setup Taylor! Really like it.
It wasn't very difficult for us to come to that conclusion. ;-) ^TM
Great review. Thanks for the comparison.
This is a great video. Thank you

This was uploaded on my birthday!! Hehee yay x love this vid it helped
i want a tab for average use more for gaming like dead trigger 2. which of the three tabs would you guys recommend. the tab 2 or 3 from galaxy or nexus 10? i have an s4 and i dont wanna feel like im dropping in graphics and speed or display =/

Great video, much appreciated
What was with all the redrawing in the browser and play store on the nexus 10 compared to the galaxy tab 3? funny it wasn't even really mentioned
good job taylor , one of the best at pocketnow :)
Very good review!!!
does the nexus10 have screen rotation?
Why the nexus 10 seem so laggy on the video? Am i seeing right?
Love this video!
When will there be a new nexus 10
I was plunking around with different Samsung devices at Future Shop and found this was the most responsive and fast.
@Nicole F. ...no. It needs the touchwiz framework . Ask around on xda if somebody is willing to make a "port" of touchwiz to stock android ...though either way,touchwiz specific functions cannot work in a non-touchwiz system. This means no smart stay,hand gestures ,eye tracking,ir remote etc.
Can you share that wallpaper ??
@skarseld that is a good point and I agree they didn't make any effort in making the Tablet UI. However the hybrid UI on the Nexus 7 is excellent and works well,makes sense and just feels good. Then they got lazy and didn't make a new UI for the Nexus 10
Do you know when galaxy note 10.1 will get android 4.2?
Wow, really good review.
Can I buy the Sony Xperia Tablet Z or should I wait for the IFA?
In what way can the tab10.1 be compared with the nexus 10?
I was surprised you compared performance between the two without every mentioning the Exynos needs to render 4 times the amount of pixels compared to the Atom.
I noticed dramatic stuttering in your video. It really pains me to see these performance issues on the latest android tablets are still quite prevalent.
AND the Tab 3 got a Home BUTTON! This Kills it completly for me in all ways.
I agree completely, I love Android and I'm holding out on a Nexus 10 sequel
Gonna buy one this august
Thanks, will get for my birthday. Yay! Nexus 10!
Which one for sound quality? I'm looking for a tablet for good sound quality
Yeah, it was supposed to be a reply to a guy giving Apple crap for having Samsung make the retina display. My point was, no company is going to make ALL of the software and hardware for their products, so giving Apple a hard time about it is pointless.
Why not the iPad 4??
The Nexus 10 can compete with a tablet made over a year later? Whoa...
*****
With this much competition, I can already imagine what the next generation Nexus 10 will be like.
I wonder if he has too many apps on his nexus 10 because it seems his nexus is a lot slower than mine
you forgot some key features like the newer insta charge battery technology, anti gravity and built in laser gun.
Nexus 10 rocks...That resolution alone blows away the competition. I've just read that Asus will be making the new
Nexus 10 with a possible release date set for the holidays.
Why doesn't falcon pro work?
I have kindle fire first gen running on android jelly bean 4.2.2 designed for the nexus, so far im loving the UI
Very nice review, i like more the nexus 10.1 because a tablet has to have a lot of multtasting
That will be the thickest phone on market... A 32 megapixel camera+ A 9000mah o my that will be like a phone from the 70's!!
How bout iPad 3 vs Tab 3 10.1???
I think Samsung excels more on the note 10.1 series with the s pen integration. Wanna wait for the next gen.
Is it possible for someone to install touchwiz on a google edition S4?
im quite big fan of physical home button and microSD card slot though
great comparison

@VladislavAngelov
>Samsung is better
Lol! Which one? Samsung galaxy tab or Samsung's Nexus 10?
I couldn't agree with You more. ICS was the best, but Nexus 10 is still better than the Galaxy Tab 3. At least You can use the Nexus 10 in portrait mode. ;)
The nexus 10 is older but the better model, Samsung got kinda cheap when they made this tablet, I want that nexus 10
Watching these videos lures me into thinking I need a tablet. I'm just not sure what for....
Makes you wonder what Samsung is playing at......Apple has retina large ipads, Sony is making full HD xperia tablets that are waterproof and samsung has just reproduced a Galaxy Tab which isn't markedly different from my original Galaxy tab 10.1
damn tab 3 10.1 looks so handsome for a huge tablet
Whats with 7 inch tablets wanting you to use them in portrait mode and 10 inch + tablets wanting you to use then in landscape :/ Besides the Ipad.
which one is better?
Some techies believe it's the crazy high-resolution screen that makes it laggy.
You forgot the fact, that the Nexus 10 has a much higher resolution, so of course the performance of Tab 3 is better than the Nexus 10
The nexus 10 is the best 10 inch tablet Samsung ever has made
People need to stop with the "iPad is better" comments. This video was made to compare top of the line Samsung manufactured Android tablets ANDROID tablets!!! The Nexus 10 still sounds like the better deal. I'm going to wait and see what the Nexus 10 successor is going to bring to the table. Hopefully, Google will shed some light on this soon.

9:50 "The Nexus 10 has a software that feels like it was made for tablets.". I lol'd. With navigation buttons in the middle and notifications shade on the top left it's impossible to use it for me.
I don't like how my Nexus 10 self-reboots on a daily basis
The lag is just so noticeable.
I thinked about the tab 3 7.0 or tab 2, but then the home button on tab 3 killed my choice for it.
tab 2 is pretty good!
not many people would buy this. aside from that, it would also limit their bag of goodies farther down the road which would together result in heavy losses. why do this now, when they can do the same thing later, sell it cheaper, and get more sales?
Nexus 10 has to push a lot more pixels and a bug in an tutu gives Intel an advantage,
Great review. Im buying the nexus :)
snapdragon 800 is actually faster or on power with the exynos octa. It packs a big.LITTLE structure which has 4 powerful cores and 4 low power ones.
Samsung needs to make fewer tabs and make them amazing
Thats because of Android it should be fixed when 4.3 or 5.0 comes out. Mine does it too but not daily.
I thought the galaxy tab had a quad core processor? !
10:00 or so
"It's just that it doesn't make a lot of SENSE."
Was that supposed to be a play on words?
Dat smartphone buttons on Tab 3.
I just wish android had better tablet apps. I tend to stick with my iPad just because of the apps. I live android on my phone however. Might grab the new nexus 7 to add to my tablet collection though.
nexus 10 is the clean winner here no reason to watch that video :p
btw, thanks PN editors for your hard work ^.^
I don't like Apple, but I challenge you to find a company that makes all of the hardware and software for their own products.
Well then I will most likelly be infuriated by the limitations and upgrade to a more expensive one to soon :)
I'm not sure if refurbished versions are available in scandinavia. But for now I'll stay out of the tablet game with the excuse that I should use my money for food and cloths as a student :)
32 megapixel doesn't mean its a good camera, you need a big (full frame or medium format) sensor to take advantage of the big file size
Good job
Just got a nexus 10, resolution is amazing, but the colors are horrible, my galaxy tab 2 is way more vibrant, did a vid where I compared the color difference beetween nexus 10 and ipad 4
I own a tab 3 10.1 and it's pretty good considering I got it in 2015 with a lot of update and even kit kat update
One is high-end and one is middle-end
Nexus should be compared with iPad or Sony Tablet
Watching on my Nexus 10
Unless the Tab 3 isn't supposed to be a high end tablet, I don't see how they couldn't beat the Nexus 10. Especially when it's their own product. They couldn't outdo themselves?
i was this close | | to buy the Tab 3, now im buying the nexus.
The Nexus is way better, would buy it even for $500
Wow wtf the Nexus 10 lags so much ...my Nexus 4 never lags. Even my Nexus 7 doesn't lag so much in the app drawer (although the 4.2.2 update really crippled it...wtf was Google thinking )
For what would you like so much?
in tablets- APPLE ALL THE WAY....ANYWAY
GREAT VIDEO POCKETNOW...
Ofc Nexus 10 is better
But hope the next version will have a micro SD slot :-\
Never mind thats the galaxy note tab *
Xperia Tablet Z is better, because it doesn't have the screwed up Jelly Bean tablet interface.
Am I te only one who thinks that ICS had a better tablet interface than Jelly Bean? o_0
The galaxy tab 3 10.1 really needs a better display. There is no reason for me to upgrade because the display is the same.
I love the new nexus 7 2013 ;)
New Nexus 7 vs Nexus 10
