The 12 incher really is big, so the question is this, do you want to be able to transport it ? The OTA on the 10 incher will lay across the seat in a medium to large sedan whilst the 12 needs a wagon or a van.
The difference in view between the two sizes is subtle rather than striking.
I love my 10 incher as it packs nicely into the car, and if I was to go any bigger, id go a 14-16 inch in truss dob form.
If you live in a place with dark skies and dont ever see a need to transport the scope, go for the 12.
