Nexus 10 by ss--ss (Jan, 2013)If the quality of the display isn't a big factor for you...go for the Galaxy Note 10.1, you'll be happier.
iPad 4 by Mac-Freak--Paul (Jan, 2013)The spectacular 9.7 inch Retina Display in Apple's full-size iPad is now matched with a custom System-on-Chip (SoC) that has the graphic muscle to take full advantage of its capabilities.
screen resolution
Nexus 10 by regularJason (Jan, 2013)Display: The Nexus 10 packs an awesome display (in fact so far as PPI Resolution is concerned, it's the best on the market *mind the date).
iPad 4 by Vitaly-Chuban (Jan, 2013)Now just few days ago I`ve bought iPad 4 (the maximum configuration), it is much faster, good screen resolution, my first impression is very good!
memory

camera resolution

Nexus 10 by Well--the-weather-outside-it-weather (Feb, 2013)If I had to beat it up on any aspect, sure it would be nice to have a higher megapixel camera (although I would still prefer other methods of photography over holding a tablet, so it doesn't really matter to me and it's so easy to transfer high quality photos to the tablet).
processor
Nexus 10 by TrustedReviews (Nov, 2012)The Exynos 5250 is faster than any other dual-core tablet chip we've seen, and isn't too far off quad-core chips like Tegra 3.
iPad 4 by Jason-Gladstone (Apr, 2013)The faster processor is fantastic and the graphics are beautiful.
Performance Real world tests of Google Nexus 10 vs Apple iPad 4
cpu speed
Nexus 10 by CConn (Feb, 2013)I also found that this issue of over-taxing the processor extends beyond the crashing issue as the overall smoothness and speed of my tablet rapidly deteriorated after the first few weeks of you.
iPad 4 by The Verge (Oct, 2012)At its launch event, Apple SVP Phil Schiller said the A6X offers double the CPU and graphics performance of the A5X, which powers the third-gen iPad.
sunspider 0.9.1 benchmark
Nexus 10 by Dan-Learned (Mar, 2013)Starts up really fast, web pages load as fast as my PC and I haven't seen any issues at all with chrome, the default browser.
iPad 4 by The Verge (Oct, 2012)Apple has touted improved Wi-Fi performance on the new iPad, which could also be contributing — either way, the browser performance is better than ever, though it's not an earth-shattering improvement.
battery life
9 hour
10 hour
Nexus 10 by S.-Bates (Apr, 2013)battery life is good but it takes 12 hours to get 6-7 hours of battery life into it.
