Android 4.2 update for Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 adds lock screen widgets and multi-user support (benchmarks)

Google just pushed an OTA update to Android 4.2 for our Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 review units. As expected, the update adds lock screen widgets to both devices and multi-user support to the Nexus 10. We've reached out to Google and the company's confirmed that this is the build that will be shipping on its flagship phone and tablet tomorrow. We'll soon be putting this latest build of Jelly Bean through its paces, but in the meantime, take a look at our gallery of screenshots below.

Update 1: Speaking of Android 4.2, check out this amazing collection of Photo Spheres.

Update 2: You'll find benchmark results after the break -- we'll update with battery rundown numbers as time permits.
