[HEXUS]

Yet another Android tablet choice with this combined Samsung and Google 11-incher.

WOW - Release this and you have your first customer Google

hmm, peaked my interest, whole reason I avoided the nexus line so far was the sd slot, my note 10.1 is awesome totally love it, though I wish it was 1080p amoled, well here's hoping its next version does, though I definitely wouldn't kick the nexus 11 out of bed based on what I've read here...

This looks like a promising tablet spec from Samsung, something to match the Nexus 10, though would be nice to see something of this spec in 7-8inch form factor. I also suspect Google will unfortunately omit the SD slot if it gets Nexus approval :S

[jnutt]

If they add a Micro SD to the Nexus 4 successor as well I'm in.

I've yet to take the plunge on any tablet, but this is shaping up to tick pretty much all the boxes as far as I'm concerned. Looking nice. Will keep an eye out in the next few months

Why would the Nexus 11 have a lower resolution than the Nexus 10? It doesn't make any sense.

[billybear]

OK, in all seriousness, I would like this with Chrome OS with support for Android apps. Add a officially supported keyboard dock. Keep the price down to Google levels and you have a winning combination.

Stick WinRT on there!

What's wrong with just getting a cheap netbook and slapping a copy of ChromeOS on there? And personally speaking I can't see the point of replacing a reasonable OS with one's that got less features - but each to their own I guess.
By the way, someone did do some work on porting ChromeOS to an old Asus Transformer (the kind that my local PC world were selling for around £150 new recently), see Look, ChromeOS running on the Transformer - although you'll see from that thread that the project seems to have stumbled and died.

Stick WinRT on there!

No, that's just wrong on so many levels. Far better surely to lobby Microsoft to move the RT gear down from it's current "premium" price point (which I really don't think it deserves).

Question on this latest Nexus - are Google now saying that uSD expandability isn't an idea of Satan and (cautiously?) smiling on it? Or are they being more discriminating - uSD-on-tablets=good; uSD-on-phones=evil. If the latter then I really can't see their motives. Personally I really like uSD capability - for it's flexibility. And from the manufacturer's point of view surely it's good because you only have one model to deal with, rather than 8/16/32/64GB models like Apple/HTC/et al?

Note 10.1 in the meantime.

Damn it why has my Nexus 10 got no expandable memory but this one does? I still love it though and if this 11" screen has a smaller bezel and fits in the same size as the 10 I might be interested. Also billybear I'm still waiting for a keyboard dock for the 10, the 7 only recently finally got one...

[Brewster0101]

Nexus 10 was missing the SD slot and HDMI out put to make it the perfect tablet.

[mark22]

Nexus 10 has hdmi out but no sdcard.

[Brewster0101]

Nexus 10 has hdmi out but no sdcard.

My Note 10 has no HDMI out but SD , thats why I chose it over the nexus 10

[iamlorro]

hopefully there will be news on the motorola phone that google have dropped hints about....
