Haven't received my N10 yet however with the Android phones my family uses I created a "family" Gmail account that some purchases are made under. I add that "family" account as a secondary account on the phones (making sure to uncheck all sync options) and the apps are then available for all family members via the Play Store.
[Nexus 10 General] Vertron:
Good. If all the screens only have very minor light bleed at worst then we have nothing to worry about.

Any chance of a photo of a fully black screen showing how minor the light bleed is?
[Nexus 10 General] GETCASHMONEY:
That's the exact same method I use.

Initial Impressions:

The back feels plasticky. It’s a shame the material on the top strip has not been used for the whole back.

Perfect weight and size. It fits well in two hands and you can hold in one. Much nicer than the iPad.

The screen is gorgeous. Lovely colours and resolution. Looks like I won’t be needing the reading glasses quite a lot of the time.

The few videos I’ve played look very good as do photographs.

Scrolling is smooth, fast and without any obvious lag.

The sound is good.

It makes my Galaxy Tab 10.1 look like a Model T Ford and the iPad now has some very serious competition.

It’s a shame we’ve had to wait so long such a device. The future now looks very good for Android tablets.

Marks: 4.5/5

0.5 lost because of that back otherwise it’s a winner.

How about fullHD playback, youtube, avi, mkv etc. USB OTG work?

What's the best way to check for light bleed?

One of these apps or equivalent.

Disappointing :(

Bleed:
[Nexus 10 General] mi7chy:
How about under normal use? All LCD's have some level of bleed due to inherent use of backlight.
[Nexus 10 General] cspiby:
Top left is bleeds notably and is distracting when viewing letter-boxed or dark video.
[Nexus 10 General] bigbamboo5:
A tiny - and barely noticeable - amount of bleed on one side and no dead pixels, so I'm happy... :good:
[Nexus 10 General] Vertron:
I agree I would find that distracting too. The top right corner would probably be tolerable, but the top left corner bleeds too much and it spreads to the middle of screen.
[Nexus 10 General] vitaminxero:
As expected with maximum brightness on a black screen. How about automatic brightness while viewing something in black? A dark movie. A black web page. Something like that. I don't think you can expect to use maximum brightness on black in the dark anyway.
[Nexus 10 General] cspiby:
Top left as seen in that picture is annoying me whatever brightness its at. Going to contact Google support.
[Nexus 10 General] groaner:
Please keep us posted!
[Nexus 10 General] Blueback22:
What apps do you miss from the iPad that you can't get on the N10? Amazon has a shopping app (no instant streaming), eBay has an app, and there are tons of Twitter clients. All those you mentioned are on Android already.
[Nexus 10 General] dipzb90:
I'm loving mine just the slow charging is annoying
[Nexus 10 General] Kookas:
EBay's app is your typical big company app, so it hardly works on a tablet.
[Nexus 10 General] Eddog4DROID:
They are optimized for tablet so much more on an iPad. That's not to say you can't use them on Android, they just don't look as good.

Great examples of non-Google, Android optimized tablet apps:

News 360

CNN

USA Today

Weatherbug

there are more, but I can't think at the moment.

From a developer's point of view, a good Android tablet should make use of Fragments (split screen) and the Action Bar up top.
[Nexus 10 General] johnyguy:
maybe a rapid charger would help from radio shack or something
[Nexus 10 General] mertzi:
I love how people feel the need to defend this, "it's normal", "as expected" etc etc. This is just plain disappointing. Why is it so hard to produce perfect screens nowadays? I'd settle for 1920x1200 (or 1080) any day of the week if there was no bloody bleed. My old viewsonic 4:3 display from 2003 has this kind of light bleed. It's 9 years old. Don't justify these flaws, samsung (or any other brand) is most likely not your employer, so why do so many feel this need of loyalty?

I want to thank you for posting this picture. I said before release that if I read one single post or see one single picture of light bleed i'm not taking the risk. I didn't fully trust the engadget review and wanted proof from a regular user, and here I have it.
[Nexus 10 General] GETCASHMONEY:
You know you can return it and get a perfect one, right? Every company expects to have a percentage of defective units. Nothing to get all upset about.
[Nexus 10 General] MMcCraryNJ:
Let me know when you find a tech product where not one single device produced has any issues or defects.

I'll wait.
[Nexus 10 General] nixkid:
You can't download the amazon shopping app on a tablet or at least you can't on the Nexus 7. I'd assume its the same on the Nexus 10. That sort of an issue with me, I use the amazon app all the time on my phone. And Zappos app is amazing. Really wish I had an Amazon app for the tablet. Using the website sucks.
[Nexus 10 General] DanP47:
Got mine this afternoon, I've been on it pretty much constantly since, here are my early thoughts, bearing in my mind this is my first tablet so I don't really have anything to compare it to:

The design looks good, don't know why everyone is complaining. The back looks better in the flesh than it did in videos/photos. I also really like the material of the back, it's less rubbery than I thought it would be, so it is smooth, but it also gives you grip.

The screen is excellent of course, colours look good, swiping between menus is very responsive. However, when browsing using Chrome, sometimes there is a little lag when clicking on links or scrolling around a webpage. This seems to be a Chrome problem though, as I tried the Dolphin browser which was much more responsive.

As for the screen bleed, yes there is some when the screen is completely black, but it is fairly minimal. 95% of the time you are using it, you will not notice it. To be honest, I don't see the big problem with screen bleed anyway. I have taken 2 photos of the device, both with full brightness and with the light off in my room (it's night time here).

Yes, it does seem quite noticeable in the first photo, but that is partly the fault of my phone camera which really accentuates it, it is much less noticeable when looking at it with the naked eye. As you see in the second photo, it is barely noticeable with a video playing. During typical use, I doubt anyone would have it on full brightness with the screen on almost fully black, while in a dark room. All in all, this is not a problem in my opinion.

The charging speed is absolutely dire, especially if you are using the tablet at the same time, although it should be able to fully charge if you leave it overnight. The charging dock is going to be very popular.

The speakers are pretty good, with the placement being the main thing. With it being at the front, the sound comes at you, and having your thumbs over them doesn't block the sound, unless you completely cover both sides with your hands.

I didn't get any WiFi drop-outs that I have seen a few reports of.

Overall, I am very pleased with this, and would definitely recommend it.

Also, if anyone wants anything checking or trying out, I'd be happy to do that.

[Nexus 10 General] mi7chy:
DanP47, do you have any games you can test run like Nova 3, Dead Trigger, Modern Combat 3, Zombiewood, etc. and see if there are any slowdowns when there's a lot of action of panning?
[Nexus 10 General] dannypingpong:
What you guys are talking about here makes my "wait" even longer... :(

The official Android.com says with Android 4.2 we are supposed to have wireless display, for example you can project your Nexus 10 on your 60" TV wirelessly. Any one tried that? Thanks.
[Nexus 10 General] kobesabi:
Is the "light bleed" the region on top left and top right?
[Nexus 10 General] mva5580:
Amazon Mobile does not work on the Nexus 7

Ebay's android app for tablets is brutal.

Pandora

ESPN Scorecenter

Chase Mobile

Facebook

And I could go on. Look, I'm excited for the Nexus 10, I got rid of my iPad for it. But to act like their tablet app selection isn't seriously lacking from the "big" companies is ridiculous.
[Nexus 10 General] DanP47:
OK just played a couple levels of Zombiewood, it ran very smoothly, graphics were crisp, no problems at all.
[Nexus 10 General] guineaa:
Not quite sure why Chrome is stuttery when scrolling on Nexus devices, especially if third party browsers aren't. Seems idiotic on Google's part. Nexus 7 was like this too, kept waiting for Chrome to fix it, but alas still stuttery. Turns a lot of people off to an otherwise good device.

This is why chrome is lagging. I hope it gets fixed soon. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1986212

Mines going back. Perfect in every way, but the fact that the charger isn't powerful enough to not let the battery drain out while gaming or watching vids is a deal breaker, 100%. They screwed the pooch badly there. I was playing games on it while it was "charging" and the battery was still discharging. Very glad I kept my N7. I may revisit the next gen of the 10 if they sort out the charging issue.
[Nexus 10 General] Croak:
Might want to hang tight for the magnetic pogo charger, which according to reports charges at least twice as fast as the microUSB and wall charger does.

And it's a pretty slick, sort of like the Apple Mag Safe connector. Rumor has it that it was supposed to ship with the pogo charger but got pulled at the last minute. I suspect it wasn't a way to save money or gouge people after the sale, but rather there was a technical issue with it, or it didn't get CE/UL/TUV etc approval in time, or maybe Apple threatened to sue...again.

Fact is, there's simply no way to push enough amps through a microUSB connection to quickly charge a 9000MaH battery. Too much resistance in that big battery.
[Nexus 10 General] Vertron:
I agree, a pogo charger is going to be an essential buy for most people.
[Nexus 10 General] hoss_n2:
What about some benchmarks :)
[Nexus 10 General] g1xx3r:
Looking forward to my own hands on today!
[Nexus 10 General] Semantics:
Isn't that vaporware at the moment? Can't find a single review of the POGO pin charger. Already sent mine back, I really hope they resell mine, it was flawless. Perfect pixel with no light bleed. I prefer my Nexus 7 honestly, though the 10 was fun to play with. Shame the battery/charging situation is so poor.
[Nexus 10 General] mva5580:
I can't believe you would send it back for something like that. Why did you even buy it in the first place? You were looking for a reason to return it.
[Nexus 10 General] GETCASHMONEY:
Once again, it will be fixed extremely soon. I won't worry about it. I charge all my electronics overnight anyways. If I blow through my phone and my tablet battery in one day I need to rethink how I am spending my time in relation to what is most important to me.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
I think the problem here is that the device isn't charging fully overnight.

I bought it under the impression that I would be able to actually use the tablet for an extended period of time while it was charging. You might find it acceptable, but I do not. I have never owned a device that would discharge as if its not even plugged in while charging, and I've owned them all. You don't know me, don't tell me I was looking for a reason to return it, that's not the case. You probably don't even have it yet, you will see.
[Nexus 10 General] Tomatoes8:
That wasn't what he was saying. If it doesn't charge fully overnight that would be a HUGE problem and people would give it 2/10 instead of 8 or 9 out 10. He is talking about it not charging while he is playing video games which is a different ball game entirely.
[Nexus 10 General] e.mote:
From pogo charger's specs (2A,5V), its output is same as a USB charger. If it's "twice as fast" as USB charging, then it's either a placebo effect or some issue with USB charging.

You can partially resolve the USB charging issue by first checking if it's standard micro-USB charging, then getting your own heavy-duty micro-USB cable and 15W USB charger. These cost only a few bucks. If slow USB charging remains, then it's a firmware or internal hardware problem.

N10's slow USB charging isn't an isolated case, as other reviewers have reported the same thing. Realistically, you shouldn't need to buy additional hardware to make up for its shortfall, but it is what it is. It's up to each person to determine whether it's worth it to him.
[Nexus 10 General] Techie2012:
I must say I would hate to spend an extra $55 (assumed price) for a pogo charger for a tablet I've already spent $550 (tax+ship)

The charging isn't an issue for me I left it to charge overnight and it was fine but I can see it being very annoying for people who can't charge over night
[Nexus 10 General] enlan:
Charging overnight ist fine if you are able to get over the day.

The bigger problem is, that the battery of the N10 sucks so bad, that you won't do it thrue the day
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
Well, the thing is I am hearing it's not charging all the way in 6 or so hours. Maybe that's a special case though. Of course our "night" hours are completely different. My night hours are generally something like 3-6 hours so I'm hoping that's enough to charge the device. Regardless, not really a deal breaker for me though.
[Nexus 10 General] Mars104:
bleeding..gutted

Received mine today, feels great seems fast, smooth. First thing I tested was light bleed, and its quite noticeable especially when playing videos with black bars (mine bleeds from the bottom two corners). Its always going to bug me knowing its not perfect, and I will be using it mainly for watching vids, so its going back.

I'll try one more, if its no better ill take a refund and If they do fix this in later batches ill be the first to buy.
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
I never charge anything while using it. It will make the battery worse.

[Nexus 10 General] Mars104:
ill try to post a pic of mine later, see what you think (I think mine is worse than the pic posted above).

I have never noticed bleed in normal use on my ipad 3 (which I want to upgrade to the nexus) or my wife's nexus 7, but can notice on the 10.

I compared in a dark room with the 2 other tabs (all on full brightness with a screen bleed test). Could notice very minor bleed on the 7 and virtually nothing on the ipad. The nexus 10 was worst by a mile.
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
I guess it's a matter of luck. Ive heard that the nexus 7 is notorious for its light bleed (so are other Asus tables). I would like to see the picture of your nexus 10. Like I said, I used to do reselling the ipad 2 and 3 (part time job in summer haha). So I know the picture above is not that bad. I will receive my nexus today and test it.
[Nexus 10 General] Mars104:
here is a photo next to my ipad 3
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
If I were you, I would return it ASAP. that's very bad. It's noticeably much worse than the picture above.

Your ipad is good, though it still has slight light bleed. Notice the right side is brighter than the left side. But it's hard to get an even screen

[Nexus 10 General] sunoryjim:
Currently digging mine. Love the way it feels in hand when reading e-zines. The grippy backing feels like it was lifted off the lid of a Lenovo Thinkpad (lawsuit time again?). The stereo sound is a refreshing change from the N7 and iPad incarnations. The styling is not as bad as I've been led to believe...the shape is reminiscent of my Galaxy S3.

Mine has light bleed, but it doesn't bother me (I'm not one of those Android users who spend all day running benchmarks and pixel-peeping my devices, nor do I expect absolute Rolex watch-like perfection). Text is super-sharp, auto-brightness announces its presence a little too often for my taste.

USB keyboard and mouse work fine via micro-USB dongle. Still haven't been able to get USB flash drives to be recognized as mass storage.

Overall, very happy with it.
[Nexus 10 General] Lumsdoni:
Personally I love it. It doors everything I expected it to, with all of the limitations I knew about before I bought it. I went 32gb because of lack of SD card but sting as otg is bound to be implemented one way out another its not a big deal.

Took a video of sons sports day today on phone, got home, dropbox, and its on the nexus.

Light bleed isn't a problem for me. I gave up staring at a black screen under a blanket in the closet up for lent.

My slight disappointment is that when I played spiderman HD video out through HDMI, my TV only picked up a 720i signal and was a little stuttery. Probably need to investigate a few settings more.

Battery life is good for me, not a big gamer so had 8 hours already, 46% left, 4 hours screen on so far.

Mainly browsing and installing apps.

My impressions of the 16GB N10

Got my 16GB N10 via UPS today. A birthday present from my wife. :)

First impressions are that the build is good, the screen is beautiful, and the Android tablet apps ecosystem sucks. So many apps with so much wasted screen real estate. I'm sure it will improve with time. At least, I hope it will...

One oddity is there is no reboot function on the power-button menu. Holding it down allows you to power down or put it in airplane mode, but not reboot. Very strange.

One thing I've noticed is that there are some screen "placement" problems. Chrome seems to want to default to zoomed in a little bit. For instance, in landscape mode, viewing the XDA site, I only see over to my username by default. If I double-tap the screen, it shows the full width just fine, but why isn't this the default. Even things like 404 and 500 HTTP responses are slightly zoomed in.

Another example is the Words with Friends app (one of the view that is actually tablet-optimized). The left and right panels are fine, but the middle panel (the game board) is slightly off. 10-15% of the bottom row of the board is covered by the letters in my rack, and the score bubbles for words played doesn't line up over the word itself (it's slightly below and to the right of the last letter in the word played).

Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone have a fix?
[Nexus 10 General] Croak:
That's pretty standard for Android, it's actually rare to see a reboot option in the power button menu outside of custom ROMS.
[Nexus 10 General] cwoodard73:
I adore mine :) It's wonderful to hold, not slippery like the iPad3 my hubby has, it's thin, light, and really looks MUCH better than it does in pictures in various reviews. Reading text and watching video is just beautiful. Little bit of light bleed in bottom right corner, but I'm not bothered by it. My Infinity was way worse. Took me 7 hours to intentionally burn down my battery (which arrived at about 70%) to 0% with a combination of installing a ton of apps, downloading music, web browsing, facebooking, emailing, general goofing around trying stuff out, and watching about an hour of video. That is good enough battery life for me!
[Nexus 10 General] guster1212:
I am very impressed with my nexus 10 but one thing I have noticed while browsing the internet is that sometimes my screen while on full brightness will flicker and dim. it happens every so often.

One app that is not compatible on the nexus 10 but is on the iPad is HBOgo. I am disappointed that it is not compatible but I'm sure that will be fixed soon.
[Nexus 10 General] Tomatoes8:
Yeah that is pretty bad, but your ipad 3 is also worse than the one csibay was complaining about so I think most people will be okay. Hopefully.
[Nexus 10 General] johnyguy:
Hey I'm glad you enjoy yours. I have the light bleed at the same spot as yours ' any how I think I'm gonna keep it. If I exchange it may end up with worst!

[Nexus 10 General] Jayrod1980:
This is by far the best tab I've ever used. Dorked around a little with ipads too and used to own the n7. This thing puts the n7 to shame in quality from the screen to general build to battery. It is so light and thin! Feels kinda like a bigger one x.The n7 is still a great buy but it's amazing how awful the colors are on the n7 vs the n10. This thing isn't flawless... Have a tiny bit of bleed in one corner but its not usually visible. I got 6 n7s trying to get a semi flaw free example but could never get one without screen lift or dead pixels. I won't be doing that again with this device. As long as the hardware holds up, I'll be keeping it.
[Nexus 10 General] mgp41896:
Does anyone else hear a high pitched sound coming from theirs? It changes frequency with the screen brightness setting. I think I will RMA this one.
[Nexus 10 General] MrGrimace:
Got it today. 16GB version

No Light Bleed. No dead pixels (that I can see anyway (they are sooo tiny))

Wifi works like a champ

Haven't had a chance to test GPS yet while driving.

Bluetooth file transfer 300mb movie between my ATT SGS2 to Nexus 10 was taking too long so i ended it at 2% at about 2 minute mark. (Could be on either device)

No chance to test bluetooth headphones

1440P video posted in other thread played without lag.

1080P 10-20Mbit mp4s play fine but mkvs have some issues.

Battery worried me a little but found out about NFC being turned on by default. Turned it off and now the power seems stable.

LOVE the feel of the back and the grip-ability. My old TF201 slipped out of my hands more often than I like to remember.

Coming from the Transformer Prime I am a very happy camper so far.
