HP Pro Slate 8

The latest tablet from HP joins a growing band of business devices aiming to find a home in the office while taking a bite out of the all-conquering iPad's market share.

Smart, premium design ; Excellent quality screen ; Good overall performance

Camera quality is disappointing ; Battery life could be better ; A touch pricier than its main rival

HP Pro Slate 8 comes packing beautiful metal body and design (hands-on)

Not to be confused with the earlier HP Slate Pro 8, this Android-powered enterprise tablet comes packing a high-resolution display, metal body and ultrasound stylus.

HP Pro Slate 8 Tablet Review

Professional Slate. HP launches its Pro Slate 8 tablet for business customers. It has a high-resolution screen and security features alongside a stylus. But is it worth the demanded 600 Euros (~$668)?

Stylish casing, Decent stereo speakers, Micro-SD slot, Good Wi-Fi reception, Camera with good color reproduction, Innovative Duet-Pen, Decent IPS screen, Good system performance, Useful battery life, Security features

Casing's stiffness, Relatively quiet speakers, Note on paper feature error-prone, High price

The Pro Slate 8 is a business tablet with an innovative digitizer and security features, for which, however, HP demands a steep price.

HP not supporting Slate 8 Pro with latest Android

Still no current Android version (Kitkat) for existing Slate 8 Pro. Don't purchase if you expect updates, look elsewhere.
