The flaws of the Nexus 10

If you intend to use Skype DO NOT buy a Nexus 10, otherwise it is great.

Skype works perfectly for me too. No problems at all.

What people say they're hearing on the other end of a Skype call is not a reliable measure of the quality of your microphone. Simply record something and see what you think. I have and the mic works great. In fact I was surprised with how good it was.

From my tests, I'm confident the mic is omnidirectional. Since it's not cardiod, which would be optimal if the person speaking is close to the mic, you may need to be conscientious about background noise.

From what I understand, there are two mics, and one is used for noise canceling. So maybe there's a problem with that second mic. In any event, you can always get a cheap USB mic for Skype.

Yes there are two. Now are both being used by apps like Skype? I believe at some point I read they didn't but it was long enough ago that I don't even remember if it was this device.
