The editors didn't like
Though the keys were plenty comfortable
Touch typists may lament at the ever so slightly smaller key size and spacing. Users will
However
Adapt quickly to the spacing so it's not a major drawback to talk about. That said
The two biggest downsides ar
Low memory
Low memory bandwidth hurts performance
Unreliable stylus
Tablet is a bit heavy
No included stylus
No stylus garage
Performance trails closest competitors
MicroSD card access requires paperclip
Heavy with keyboard dock
That sold-separately keyboard dock suffers from occasional lag and a tiny touch pad
And even low-end configurations are more expensive than other tablets or hybrids
Noticeable fan noise
Mobile keyboard dock angle is non-adjustable
Mediocre battery life
Just one USB port
It's not going to win any thin contests
Pricy
Relatively dim screen
MicroSD Card slot requires paperclip
A bit bulky
Stylus costs extra
Keyboard docks cost extra. Stylus not included. Aggressive default screen dimming. Only one USB 3.0 port
Somewhat thick
Touchpad on the optional keyboard is a bit finnicky

Dell's Venue 11 Pro (7139) is the company's top-of-the-line tablet with enterprise level security features. It's built to meet all the needs of an enterprise business, and it's our top choice for high-end business tablets...
Single battery performance mediocre, Surface Pro has a better CPU, cheaper keyboard is poor, heavy, bulky design, poor speakers
The Dell only falls down in a couple of areas. Its 2MP front camera is only suitable for Skype calls, and the 8mp rear shooter produces shots that are a little too dark for our liking. And, when it comes to audio, there's little to shout about: the Venue...

That sold-separately keyboard dock suffers from occasional lag and a tiny touch pad, and even low-end configurations are more expensive than other tablets or hybrids
Betting on a full 1080p display partly justifies the Dell Venue 11 Pro's higher price compared to other Atom-powered tablets. But the keyboard dock add-on, which should turn this into a functional laptop alternative, is too expensive and occasionally fru...

The Venue Pro 11 is a solid enough tablet, but it's ultimately not a terribly competitive one. If you're keen on a pure touch Windows 8 experience, the Surface Pro 2 is just a touch more expensive (or identical if you can survive on the base model's 64GB...

When I first unpacked the Dell's Venue Pro I wasn't impressed. It was heavy and not particularly good looking. After adjusting my expectations and realising that what I had wasn't designed as a conventional tablet but rather as a business and productivit...
Cramped screen, Modest battery gains over i5 model, Ergonomics
A computing chameleon, the Venue 11 Pro is a versatile Windows tablet with enterprise features that can readily convert to a laptop or desktop with the right accessory add-ons....
It isn't perfect, then, but the Venue 11 Pro remains a great tablet, especially when you consider the price. If you can make do with a 64GB SSD, the entry-level model throws in a slim, clip-on keyboard for £559 inc VAT, and even if you crave the top-end m...

Abstract: The Dell Venue series isn't new by any measure, but the unveiling of the 11 Pro 7000 hybrid goes to show that Dell still has plenty of tricks up its sleeve. It's beat Microsoft to the punch with Intel Core M technology but, oddly, the Pro 7000 isn't slimm...
