HP Pro Slate 12 Overall Review
Announced in January 2015, the HP Pro Slate 12 set out to redefine the productivity capabilities of a tablet. Featuring a substantial 12.3-inch display, this device was aimed squarely at professionals and creatives looking for a portable yet powerful workspace. The Snapdragon 800 chipset at its core, coupled with 2 GB of RAM, provided the muscle to handle multitasking and demanding apps with relative ease.
One of the standout features of the Pro Slate 12 was its Corning Concore Glass, offering enhanced durability without compromising on touch sensitivity. With 32 GB of internal storage, users had ample space for documents, apps, and media, although the lack of a microSD card slot meant that storage expansion was not an option.
Photography was not the main focus of this device, yet it came equipped with an 8 MP primary camera and a 2 MP front-facing camera, adequate for video conferencing and occasional snapshots.
