The editors didn't like

  • Not a lot of software optimized for quad-core CPU
  • Occasional hiccups and stuttersKeyboard on dock is less than perfect
  • GPS and WiFi woes
  • Weak
  • Quiet audio
  • Tiny power button
  • Not readable in direct sunlight
  • Some bugs
  • Honeycomb lacks both apps and a good app store
  • Keyboard’s trackpad is over sensitive
  • Not much quad-core optimised software yetLook and Feel...
  • No dedicated USB port
  • Only one speaker
  • No Android 4.0 face-recognition feature
  • Sponsored
  • The big ding is that it's still running Honeycomb. While the Tegra 3 over-powers Honeycomb's speed problems with obscene processing power
  • It's still not a very intuitive UI
  • The most glaring design flaw is the speaker. Yes
  • Speaker. Singular
  • Only one speaker port
  • Slightly warm color balance for the display
  • GPS signal issues
  • Keys on dock are shallow
  • Camera captures washed out images
  • Weighting when docked takes getting used to
  • Not every game takes advantage of the quad-core CPU
  • And frame rates can suffer as a result. When connected to the dock keyboard
  • The tablet is top-heavy and can easily slide off a lap or table if you're not careful
  • WiFi only. 40pin connector for charging instead of USB. Keyboard dock is pricey. Dock is lighter than tablet
  • Making the assembly topheavy and causing stability problems. Keyboard's trackpad has issues
  • Poor app selection and quality
  • Software isn't completely optimized for the faster processor
  • Browser performance can be sluggish
  • Weak GPS signal strength
  • Soso video recording & photo quality
  • Still not quite a laptop replacement
  • Keyboard could be better
  • Not all ICS features are available
  • GPS only works sporadically
  • No 3G/UMTS
