HP Slate 7 Plus Pro Reviews

Does the performance of the HP Slate 7 Plus suffice for one of the top ranks in our list? Sadly, despite many positive aspects, not quite. On the plus side is the bright, viewing angle stable 7-inch IPS display whose resolution is at 1280x800 pixels sufficiently high. In addition to that, it comes with an image representation that is sharp and rich in contrast. Furthermore, the still powerful Tegra 3 SoC offers an appealing level of performance in all situations. Moreover, the tablet has, with Android 4.2.2, a relatively modern operating system on-board. The ill-conceived position of the buttons and of the speakers is less appealing. The mediocre workmanship and the high total weight are also negative points. Furthermore, the HP Slate 7 Plus offers really lousy camera modules for a multimedia tablet. Due to its inaccurate GPS tracking, the test sample is also ruled out as a satnav replacement - at least in the open country. Nevertheless, the HP Slate 7 Plus has quite a lot to offer for 149 Euros (~$205, RRP) and represents a solid choice in the entry-level range. Currently you even receive an additional protective case for this price in the HP store. Those who are willing to invest 70 Euros (~$96) more for the Google Nexus 7, however, receive the far better tablet.
