HP ElitePad 1000 Review

After realizing the fact that people these days are more prone towards highly portable devices, all the leading brands have started concentrating on tablets. It is predicted that after few years tablets will take over laptop PCs. Tablets these days are coming with almost all the functionalities as of the laptop but it they are cheaper and easier to carry. Like all other leading brands HP has also shifted its attention from laptops to tablets. Recently HP has launched its new tablet Elitepad 1000, let’s review it to know more about its features.

DESIGN

The ElitePad 1000 G2 is a tablet giving a complete Windows 8 experience in a size which can be easily taken on the move. This slim tablet with 9.2mm thickness and 1.5 pound weight packs in all the ground breaking features and advanced technologies to give you an optimized experience. Its high quality aluminum chassis does not only offer durability but also adds in the elegance and style. It is one of the best looking business tablets we can find.

DISPLAY

The 10.1-inch IPS display features native pixel-resolution of 1920 x 1200, which is much better than 1280 x 800 resolution which we got in the previous version of Elitepad. Relating its size and resolution we can say that both are perfectly matched and offer you an amazing work experience. The display offers you enough space to easily work on various applications smoothly. The touchscreen panel is so bright that it can easily be viewed even under bright sunlight when using with full brightness plus having a smudge resistant coating it is easier to clean.

PERFORMANCE

Driven by Intel Atom Z3795 processor it offers you a performance which Elitepad 900 failed to give. It gives you an overall improved speed and graphical performance without effecting the energy efficiency. Where previous version had 2GB RAM the newer Elitepad has 4GB RAM, in addition it is also capable of cranking through the full Photoshop CS6 test in 13 minutes 20 seconds. Even though the performance is much improved but still it cannot compete with a bit more expensive devices like Surface Po 3 and Dell Venue 11 Pro.

CONNECTIVITY

The tablet itself does not come with a wide variety of connectivity ports. It comes featuring an SD card slot, headphone jack and a single docking station. But if you want more connectivity options you can get them through SmartJacket accessories. The Elitepad 1000 also offers you various wireless connectivity options including WI-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC.

BATTERY

In a Peacekeeper browser-based battery test Elitepad 1000 was capable of running for five hours and 55 minutes which is just a couple of more minutes than Elitepad 900. But considering the fact that the latest model has increased screen resolution and improved graphical performance, the current battery timing is quite satisfactory. Anyhow you can keep the screen’s brightness on 50 percent as it still looks bright and gives you a full day of work. But if you are still not satisfied you can also get a jacket with an extra battery which will give you up to 20 hours according to HP.

CONCLUSION

Offering beefier specs and stunning design the ElitePad 1000 is no doubt a big upgrade from its predecessors. Well, if you are looking for a business tablet that can give you a smooth Windows 8 experience and want to work on Microsoft Office, then HP Elitepad 1000 can be a good choice.

Where is Technology Taking Us?

When internet was introduced in late 80s it totally shook the world, even though it was not as developed as it is today. It evolved from a small group of scientist and academics and was gradually hitting the common market. People were making predictions about where it will be headed and what changes will it bring in our life. From that time till now, scientists and developers have been bringing changes and developing more advanced devices to give us a better lifestyle and to offer us ease in every filed of our life. Some of the far-fetched ideas and wide guess have even been materialized and we don’t know to which extent the development further will go.

If we closely review last decade we see that our dependency on technology has increased to an alarming degree. Devices like smartphones, tablets and laptops are become an integral part of our lives. With the sheer volume of the technology at our fingertips it becomes hard not to use technology at all. From our working habits to personal relationships, everything has been transformed by technology. Though transformation is not a bad thing but the balance has tipped too far and we are near the stage of becoming slaves of the screen.

In most of the surveys conducted to know whether technology is leaving an adverse effect or positive effect on our lives, most of the people claimed technology has changed their lives for better. But here we are forgetting something. There are some people who spend more than 12 hours of their day on social media and then there are those who are addicted to online gaming and prefer games over food! In such situations how can we not notice the negative effect technology is leaving on our lives?

There were days when families use to sit together and have discussions but today we hardly sit and have those family discussions because most of the time we are busy without smartphones and tablets. Though teenagers and young generation is accused of ruining the good family time with their tech devices but in reality parents are doing the same.

And how can we not talk of the adverse effect it is leaving on our health. Our eyes are locked to the screens for most of the days and the damage these emitting rays do to our eyes is beyond imagination. Plus our whole routine is disturbed due to these tech devices. No more healthy morning walks, being glued to our smartphone till late at night how can we wake up early to do some recreating activities. Children these days are more prone toward technology than adults. Parents give their children iPads or smartphones to play without once thinking the damage it can do to their eyes and brain.

Here I want to clear one point, I am not an anti tech and neither am I one of those who are totally against technology and latest gadgets. All I am trying to say here is that we are using tech devices more than they are meant to be used. Our too much dependency on technology is gradually ruining our lives and most of the time we don’t know what harm technology is dong to us. Excessive usage of technology can do us more harm than good so it is better to maintain a balance for taking out the best from these technical gadgets.

Dell Venue Pro 10 5055 Review

Current era is the era of convertible and detachable devices. The devices which can offer the functionality of more than one device in a single unit. Technology developers have understood that people like to spend their hard earned money on electrical products which give them revolutionary technology andadvanced features.

Like other leading brands Dell also wants to satisfy its customers by giving most innovative devices. Venue Pro 10 5055 is the spec’d out version of previous Venue tablet and chiefly focuses on students. It comes with improved display, larger hard drive and other enhanced features so you get on optimized overall performance. Let’s review it in detail so you can have a better idea if this is the device you were looking for or not.

DESIGN

Talking of the design lets first focus on its weight and dimensions. Venue Pro 10 5055 measures 10.34 x 0.39 6.92-inches and weighs just 656.9g. Venue Pro 5055 is a hybrid having rubberized edges which makes it slip proof and easy to grip. Though rubberized design makes it easier for us to hold it but we still need to take care of it because it is not ruggedized and shockproof. But at this affordable price we do not expect much from its design and built. It features two main buttons one Windows and the other power button. Both the buttons are of same size and fixed on the adjacent corners of the tablet.

One major problem in the design of this tablet is that it is hard to perfectly attach the tablet to Dell’s Venue Keyboard. Sometimes you might feel the keyboard is securely attached but it is not attached properly which lead to accidental detachments. So it is important to properly check every time whether the two are perfectly attached or not.

KEYBOARD AND TRACKPAD

The keyboard works fine but there are some issues with the performance of trackpad. Its complete surface do not allow you to click, you can only click on the bottom sides of the trackpad and sometimes it feels as if it requires more than average force to register a click. The keyboard is good enough for fast typing and gives you a comfortable typing experience.

DISPLAY

Dell has equipped Venue 5055 with a Full HD display having 1920 x 1200 resolution. The display delivers sharp text and clear and bright images which mean you get to enjoy your media at its peak. The stylus works efficiently on the tablet screen. It recognizes every touch accurately and let you have a smooth working experience. But there’ one drawback with the stylus as well. Though it performs well but it works with AAAA battery which is often hard to find.

PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY

If you’re planning to buy this tablet for playing games then don’t even consider buying it. On Venue 5055 3DMark's Cloud Gate had an average score of 1130 with a crawling 4 frames per second whereas the Sky Diver test had an average score of 441. As it is not capable of running games properly it can be considered as the best hybrid tablet you can buy for your kid’s studies. In everyday use which is a mixture of video streaming, web browsing and document writing it gives up to six hours of productive life on a single charge.

FINAL VERDICT

Venue 5055 is a good option for price conscious buyers and students. At this price it gives you a decent user experience as compared to many other cheap devices. But you have to keep a firm hand on docking it with the keyboard and the battery is also at average level. It may not have some fancy features as of iPad air and other tablets but it is still quite suitable tablet for students.
