HP Slate 7, and as the name suggests, it will have a 7-inch display, with a resolution of 1024x600 pixels. The tablet will come preloaded with Android 4.1, in line with HP’s recent cozying up to Google, which included the Chromebook. It will be powered by a dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor clocking at 1.6GHz, but the amount of RAM has not been mentioned.
This is HP’s third stab at the tablet market, with a critically acclaimed enterprise-based Windows 7 tablet long back, and then the doomed flirtation and adoption of webOS.
The Slate 7 will have 8GB built-in storage, while there is the memory card slot for expansion, in case you so require. The tablet includes Beats Audio speakers, a microUSB port, a soft-touch rubber back, a 3MP rear camera and a VGA front-facing for video chatting. High-aperture-ratio Field Fringe Switching (HFFS) display panel claims to offer wide viewing angles, even in outdoor lighting conditions.
