But the situation with Google is not known, but the analyst Benedict Evans was able to estimate the number of Nexus-tablet.

However, experts do not hasten to call Nexus 10 device failure. According to the analyst Forbes Ewan Spence, tablets from Google are not intended for general sale, and to get them is problematic, since neither Google, nor Samsung has not invested in any marketing campaign, either in retail distribution. According to Samsung USA, the tablet is officially available only in the online store Google Play. Major retailers such as BestBuy or B & H, do not have in stock Nexus 10. Believe in Forbes, Google hoped that the tablets will buy only the software developers for Android, as well as the category of “geek”, so the tablet did not even go into the general retail.
