That is very true (iOS being locked down). I do not like iOS and its one of the largest reasons I really wanted to like the Nexus 10. But the package you get with an iPad really is pretty good when you think about it. At the end of the day, the iPad is stable and just works. You do not have all the customization you get with Android for sure, but that stability made it more useful than the Nexus 10 to me personally. There really is no need to wipe and install whatever you want on it because it already has fantastic performance, fantastic battery life, and stability.

I did have a ton of reboots (Upwards of 5 times a day) before 4.2.2. So for three months I had a basically useless paper weight because I could not use it for any serious work because I was afraid it would reboot. My girlfriend used it to study once and said she would never use a Nexus tablet again afterwards. It rebooted on her every 20 minutes while she did her online problem sets. If you have never had a reboot I would guess that you recently got your Nexus 10 after 4.2.2 was released? Because most of the reboots are gone with 4.2.2. I still get them when installing applications but I've haven't got near as many as I did before.

And please believe that I'm not biased against Android. I have not owned an iPhone since 2009. I jumped ship from the iPhone 3G to the HTC Incredible as soon as it came out (And now have a Galaxy Note 2). I guess I was expecting a comparable experience on the Nexus 10 that I had with my Android phone and it just wasn't there for me.

I'll be happy to admit that if not for the generation gap, and the fast-outpacing of Tegra 2, I consider my old Acer Iconia a500 to be a superior tablet overall than the Nexus 10. But I need the performance gains and new instruction sets.

Ok maybe I'm missing something. Other than the reboots, what's so bad about this tablet?

I don't know about you, but random reboots is a pretty large problem. Other than that, in my personal use, battery life, washed out display and not smooth performance.

No I agree reboots is huge, a deal breaker really.

But 6-7 hours of screen on time is great. I only have to charge once overnight and it lasts me all day. Very acceptable to me.

Didn't have problems with my display, and performance has been smooth on my end..

Honestly, replacing the OS for performance isn't my reasoning. My fiance says I have an incessant need to tweak everything, break it, fix it, then break it again 2 weeks later.

It sounds like the Nexus 10 is for you then. I want stability and performance before customization and tweaking. My Note 2 has both fine, I was just expecting the Nexus 10 to as well.

Precisely. I always used to tell customers, "Pick the one that does what you want, not that has features nobody else has". Buy for what you'll use.

Yeah. This tablet has some annoying bugs. I think there's no perfect android tablet.

I stay with it because android is the only mobile OS that allows me to do the stuff I need: file browser, easy internet downloads, torrents, emulators, Bluetooth transfers, etc.

Ipad is a better tablet, but it can't do any of that. I need functionality.
