The editors didn't like
Heftier than 8-inch competition
Lackluster camera
Speakers a bit soft
A bit pricier than rivals. No GPS. No 3G/4G/LTE. Lots of bloatware
Mediocre display
Thick and heavy compared to much of the competition
Comparatively low battery life
Low screen resolution
Lackluster cameras
Lots of preinstalled software
Keyboard not included
The clunky plastic design does the W4 no favors
And it's thicker and heavier than many other Windows tablets. The screen resolution feels dated compared to a growing number of HD-or-better tablets
Ergonomics for business productivity could be better
Short on internal storage
Not suitable for demanding workloads
Lousy camera and speakers. Disappointing display resolution. Bloatware. Uninspiring design.
Not for power users
Few interfaces
Short Wi-Fi range
Slightly bulky compared to other 8-inch Windows tablets
