HP is coming into the Android market (tablets, no less) with their offering of the Slate 7. With a pretty nice overall build and design quality, a rear 3MP camera, and Beats Audio, is this very affordable tablet at $169 going to make as big a splash as HP is hoping? We’ll have to wait and see – for now, check out our first look at the HP Slate 7.

Good stuff man.
So the Slate7 has the function, it's just turned off in this interview?
i was going to get the slate 7 but then the galaxy tab 2 went on sale and it out classes this thing in every way. i don't think a .6 in cpu speed is going to show.
and thank u android
i love the slate 7 hp made a hit thank u HP
HP has made a 3nd tier product. Compaq would have built it differently; they were the market leader. I can see HP selling this in deep discount before the school begins. They have no choice… with the cheap battery, this product just does not add up.
i got my slate 7 for 140 great tablet just got it today
i got my slate 7 on sale for 140
I'm watching but distracted by the fact he keeps turning the pad on its side and the display is not rotating from "Page View" to "Landscape". This is a basic function of even the cheapest Tablets. What a shame.
nice
None of ' em is what an Ipad user would say. Lol
Man I have a problem with mine.
I installed Asphalt 7 but it just keeps on kicking me into the home screen.
That's fecking annoying because it also happens with Real Racing 2.
i dont know ehy they called this a slate a shate is a tablit pc this is a crappy tablet,
the back looks nice but the froint is just plain ugly… get your acttogeather HP
i was hoping the slate 7 would be a hp slate with win8,butno…
i have a hp slate 2 and i installed ICS and i added custom drivers to enable everything on it and it works great.i reccomend buying a slate 2 and sending me an email @chrisandroid12@gmail.comto get all your drivers and use that as an HP android TAB.
Y do u always compare everything to the nexus 7?
Doesn't look bad but the nexus 7 does beat it because the PPI on the HP is truly terrible
I like the glossy red colour, that's the only reason i'd buy this over a nexus 7
slate 7 doesnt have giroscope (tilt gaming stuff)
Get a nexus 7. much better.
I've got an iPad, but I want this too
Rubbish.
nexus 7
just consider between nexus and this one. samsung's nice but this one and nexus are mmmhh unique XD
nexus 7 is good choice for gaming !
none of 'em
this is good spec for price worth a punt i have been using the asus nexus 7 since launch and love it but will be getting this as a secondary device.
The first tablet with beats? No it's not. The Touchpad has beats…
Best tablet ever for its low price so far its up their with the nexus 7
It's a tablet..
It's priced right.
The display looks horrible…
Looks awesome. Thanks guys
Cool
Slate 7 is the biggest cheap ass tablet i have ever seen.
So, how is VGA? Is it a standard amount of megapixels?
Smooth bargaining there for a review unit! I would really like to see this tablet in for a review..
I must've missed it, but what kind of SoC are they rocking?
