Weight

The Nexus 10 is slighter lighter than the iPad 4, but it also feels as solid as the iPad.

Connectivty

They both have Wifi with Dual-band & bluetooth, excpt that bluetooth in the iPad is useless. Apple iPad 3 support 3G/4G LTE connection with a microSIM slot, where the Nexus 10 versions on the market currently is WiFi Only.

Don't forget the dual-side NFC in the Nexus 10, this function doesn't exist on the iPad 4.

The Nexus 10 has a bigger display with higher resolution and more pixel density than the iPad 4 Retina display, The Nexus screen pack 4 Million pixels, where the iPad screen packs 3.1 Million pixels.

Also, Nexus 10 utilizes Super PLS TFT HD technology against the iPad's IPS. However, Super PLS offers deeper colors and sharper images with more brightness and less power consumtion.

Camera

Both devices have a 5MP camera with the same image resoltuion, also both devices capture HD videos too. THe Nexus 10 has a 1.9MP front camera where the iPad packs a 1.2MP front camera for facetime.

Samsung Nexus 10 packs a Samsung's Exynos 5 dual-core chip clocked at 1.7GHZ and a Quad-core PowerSVX T-604 GPU. The Apple iPad 4 packs the Samsung-made A6X dual core 1.4Ghz CPU and Quad-core Graphics.

As you can see more clock rate, means more performance but the RAM is the point here.

RAM

Nexus with a 2GB vs the iPad 4 with 1GB... no need to think here, the Nexus 10 will have far more performance than the iPad 4.

Battery

The iPad 4 pack a 11,666 mAh battery inside it, where the Nexus 10 packs 9,000 mAh. Yes, Its a huge diffrence but since the Nexus 10 doesn't pack a 3G/4G antenna it won't need that much power.

Nexus 10 Full Specifications

iPad 4 Full Specifications

Jelly Bean 4.2 vs. iOS 6

The Nexus 10 ships with the updated version of Jellybean, Android 4.2. It's a relatively minor update, but it adds some new features like Photo Sphere (a 360 degree panorama), updated Google Now, and multiple user accounts. It also adds a Swype-like trace keyboard, all these features and more built right into stock Android.

The biggest weakness of Android tablets, though, is still their native tablet app selection. This is where the iOS App Store excels, with its 275,000+ library of tablet-specific applications. However, too many Android tablet apps are still stretched-out layouts smartphone apps.

After Google released the Nexus 7 tablet with 7-inch displays, Supply chain "Wintek" is reportedly shipping 500,000 One-glass (OGS) panels for the Google Nexus 7 Now, with the rest of the shipments coming from TPK Holding.

Also, Sources casually mentioning that Wintek will also be supplying 10" panels for another Nexus tablet rumored to be the "Nexus 10", making it the largest Google supplier of slate displays. The rest of the 10-inchers are said to come from AU Optronics. Wintek apparently has a 3 Million capacity for those medium size 10" OGS panels, so we are wondering if Google is just playing around with a Nexus 10 idea

A Happy Holidays video posted by Google reveals an audio dock for the Google Nexus 10. One of the problems about such a leak is that it doesn't come with any information outside of the sight of someone sliding the tablet into the dock. While ASUS made the audio dock for the 7 inch ASUS built Google Nexus 7 tablet, it would seem natural if Samsung is behind the audio dock for the 10-inch Google Nexus 10, which is manufactured by the Korean tech giant.

The Google Nexus 10 audio dock makes a couple of appearances at 0:57 and at 1:16 on the video. It is not a large accessory, but does have a raised back to hold up the HD 10.1 inch screen.

Already out of stock for some time at the Google Play Store, the Google Nexus 10 showed up yesterday on Staples online site, where the tablet was once again sold out.

The Samsung built, Android flavored tablet is Google's main competition for the Apple iPad with a 10-inch screen and 2560 x 1600 resolution that produces a pixel density of 300 ppi. The display on the third and fourth generation of the Apple iPad has a pixel density of 264ppi.
