Holy fuck, the Nexus 10 is ugly as sin. I somewhat still want one, but I'm not sure if this shit is dealwithable. I can understand them wanting it to look different from the iPad, but this is just an amorphous blob.

yeah, it's kinda boring, like a fat lesbian cousin who always wears beige slacks

It's a real shame too, the Nexus 7 was beautiful, I was hoping they could keep that up.

How does it look ugly?

Out of the Nexus 4, 7, and 10, only the 7 looks alright. They've literally lost my business because it looks like it was built in the 1990's... get your shit together you lazy fucks.

But I'm lazy, faggot.

I want to dump my entire folder on 4 separate 128GBs, or at the very least have a single SD card where I can put shit then switch it.

BUT COME ON

JUST GIVE ME AN SDXC

>not using an sd to mini usb adaptor
you dumb as well?
>>
>>28688610
You got mad? Everyone knew that a nexus wouldn't have SD and have a crappy storage space on top of that. That's the point of it, pushing you on the cloud.
That's why google even bothers with it.
>>
>>28688950
That requires an external drive. I want to JUST HAVE tablet.
>>
>>28689010
I was just wondering why the lack of an sd slot frustrates you. You can use an otg cable connected to a reader.

Such a good idea. I have to carry around a lot of other shit with me.

I guess is different when google does it.

It is a small price to pay for dem specs at dat pricepoint. It is called a workaround.

>>28689464
I'm torn between an external drive OR a multi card reader. If I'm going to need access to my media lib I'm most probably at home so I'll just stream from my NAS
>>
>>28689464
Now that's a portable device
>>
>>28688513 (OP)
When I saw the first leak of the design, I agreed with you without any hesitation. I don't now though, I think it looks kind of great actually. But I won't buy it before i see it first-hand. I'm still kind of scared that it might look like a finely cut piece of crap, like the touchpad.
>>
>>28689349
Storage is not a small price to pay. I would understand on a phone but not on a tablet.
>>
>>28689529
>500gb of storage
Can't get any more portable than that with that kind of storage barring a laptop

>implying we should have to choose
Google doesn't get it. It doesn't matter how functional you make your product, how many coars and HURTS.
If someone can choose something that fits their needs largely as well and looks better doing it, they're going to choose that rather than buy hardware that won't do anything extra for them
>>
>>28689558
Having an external attachment for muh storage is a small price to pay for using Nexus 10 with all my content

I know that the Nexus 10 has great specs and I'm planning on getting one but, what are the odds that the cpu and gpu won't be enough to push that many pixels at a smooth framerate? That is the #1 fear of mine.
>>
>>28689558
it is considering that all you'll be doing is watching films on it, you could just stream them from your laptop or desktop

Fat sweaty neckbeards like you obviously can't appreciate good industrial design, but a lot of the world does
>>
>>28689650
256gb sdxc cards are expensive as hell and so is surface
>>
>>28689668
So I need to keep my desktop around now? Or keep it on?

What's with these shitty workarounds? Couldn't it been easier to just have a SD slot on there?
>>
>>28689652
the GPU is only good enough to push 1080 as even most desktop cards struggle to push that amount of pixels but it's not meant for gaming though unlike phones

fuck sake, use tonido and use a low powered PC just to run the server then you can view all media as long as you have internet
>>
My Surface RT has a better screen though.
>>
>>28689712

Aesthetics should not be a primary consideration for tech purchase
Also

Seriously?
>>
>>28689728
Cost more than an ipad.
>>
>>28689787
>Aesthetics should not be a primary consideration for tech purchase

Still, it doesn't have to look ugly. Especially a portable device that you carry around with you.
>>
>>28689787
>Aesthetics should not be a primary consideration for tech purchase
Who the fuck said otherwise?
But companies shouldn't be neglecting good design. There's no reason for it
>>
>>28689749
I get 10 hours of video from my Galaxy Tab 8.9, that's a device from mid last year. It's the minimum acceptable for a device in the $300+ range.
>>
>>28689810
doubt it if the ipad came with 256gb of storage it'd cost upwards of $2k
>>
>>28688820
>Surface
>completely open
DAT DELUSION
>>
>>28689838
Irrelevant.Also it has a shitty screen unlike the nexus 10
>>
/g/ also said that the s3 was ugly. Now everybody has one and nobody cares. Nexus 10 is fine
>>
I think it looks good.
>>
>>28689875
I agree. It's FUCKING MICROSOFT.
>>
>>28689708
so will there be no hope for any gaming whatsoever on the nexus 10? I wanted to play some n64 emulation on it.

You'd think that google would have made their own tablet capable of gaming.
>>
>>28689884
it has the same screen just different ratio
>>
>>28689884
Storage is not irrelevant. Why does Apple charge $100 more for 16GB plus?
>>
>>28689835
Only insecure people require shiny things to be seen with them.
>>28689830
Your posts implied otherwise. Aesthetics is only a bonus. Great if it is there, alright still if it is not
>>
>>28689911
Yet is Google's device that has these limitations to force you into its cloud.
>>
>>28689837
>shit tier processor
>shit memory
>shit storage
>shit cameras
No wonder it has good battery, it has nothing to use the fucking thing up
>>
>>28689912
emulation it can do but unless it has 4gb+ of vRAM there isn't a chance in hell of it running at native res
>>
>>28689928
I had dem links mixed up but I'm sure you folks could manage
>>
>>28689884
>More pixsels
>SCREEN IS AMAZING GUISE
No. Nexus 7 has higher ppi than most devices yet the screen is absolute shit. We'll have to wait and see
>>
sometimes i feel like i'm the only one who doesn't give a shit what these devices look like

you faggots are worse than the dipshits who buy tv's based on how pretty the bezel is
>>
>>28689954
It can watch video, battery life and the screen are the only specs that are relevant after that point.
>>
The reason it's shape ugly Apple has a trademark on square/rectangular electronics. It was a big part of Apple-Samsung lawsuit: gs2 was the same shape as iphone4

This is what ugly fat neckbeards actually believe

Windows, the only OS where 7 is greater than 10.

Well with the way your OS is going, I suppose that's actually pretty true. I guess you win.
