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

Awful front camera, No detachable back panel, No resolution improvements

The Dell Venue 11 Pro has a nice body with excellent manufacturing, an outstanding screen and long battery life. Unfortunately, all this is countered by an extremely lightweight processor and GPU, giving it performance that falls several notches below Mic...
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...
Impressive battery life provides the device with lots of stamina with a significant boost from the keyboard dock when attached, Battery recharging is accomplished using microUSB capability as opposed to a proprietary technology, Battery can be removed for

The Dell Venue 11 Pro makes most sense as a basic laptop that can also do a job as a tablet rather than the other way around, but the keyboard accessories are expensive....
Nice 1080 IPS screen, Solid feel, Very configurable, Good battery life
Much pricier than the 8-inch model, Heavy for a tablet
If you're keen on the idea of picking up a Windows 8 tablet that can be used as a laptop (if you grab the optional keyboard dock) for basic tasks, Dell's Venue 11 Pro is a solid option with a nice 1080p IPS screen and good battery life. Its swappable ba...
