Today we received and promptly disassembled the Google Nexus 10. In usual fashion we?ll release the take apart video next week, but wanted to go ahead and post the preliminary take apart steps and photos. The model we?ve taken apart is the 16GB Wi-FI model. Model # GT-P8110.
One thing that struck us about this disassembly was the complete ease of taking this tablet apart. Whereas Apple seems to be making it more and more difficult to repair devices by combining parts and using as much glue as possible, Google seems to be taking the complete opposite approach. The end result is a device that is extremely repairable. Go Google!
Another interesting note is how many of the components in the device are manufactured by Samsung. It appears that the battery, processor, and flash memory are all made by Samsung. Is this Google?s way of capitalizing on the drift between Apple and Samsung?
