Google and Samsung to Launch High-End Nexus Tablet [REPORT]

Google has teamed up with Samsung for a new 10.1-inch Nexus tablet.

Cnet, citing NPD DisplaySearch analyst Richard Shim, reveals some details about the upcoming tablet. It will have, Shim claims, a 2,560x1,600 resolution with 299 PPI, which is higher than iPad's 264 PPI resolution.

The tablet will be a "high-end device," which likely means it will cost more than the Nexus 7, which goes for $199.

If Google has indeed teamed up with Samsung for a new tablet, it's a bit of a surprise. Google has had Samsung make its smartphones before, but the Nexus 7 tablet was manufactured by Asus.
