While there is a slightly a big gap amidst the screen finishes and the edge of the tablet, the total design of the Slate is pretty decent. It features a nice stainless steel frame, has a metallic grey looking finish to the back (it’s also available in red), that results in an aesthetically impressive tablet.

PROS
- A great price point.
- Works great for streaming movies/tv, etc. – with sound quality that is incredible with the built-in Beats Audio™.
- The display is bright, the sound is amazing for such a small package, and the touch screen works great.
- Quick and easy in setting it up.
- The expandability with the memory card made it possible to hold more music as well as books.
- It’s light weight, easy to grip so it never feels like it may slip out of your hand.

CONS
- Not all applications function as expected, but hoping this gets better with additional updates.
- It has no GPS.
Overall, the HP Slate 2800 7-Inch 8 GB Tablet does just adequate to differentiate itself from the competition because of the cameras and Beats Audio support. It has a pretty decent price for its features, but in comparison to most tablets out there, it isn’t a hugely impressive tablet. While it’s good enough for very basic things that you needed to do – like using email and browsing the web, it’s not the tablet you want if you want to watch video (get a better screen).
