The editors didn't like

  • 2GB RAM limits multitasking and heavier apps
  • No LTE/Cellular variant
  • MicroUSB to USB adaptor would be a handy inclusion
  • A little larger and bulkier than some Android and iOS tablets
  • Windows app ecosystem is still playing catch up
  • Small screen makes it a middling candidate for a laptop replacement
  • Few ports
  • Lack of thumb rejection can be frustrating
  • Windows Start button poorly placed
  • Windows app store smaller than those for Android or iOS
  • Keyboard an extracost accessory
  • Awkward home button placement
  • Mixed audio quality
  • A misplaced Windows button throws off the usability
  • And the 32GB of SSD storage won't hold much. A promised keyboard accessory isn't available yet
  • Only one USB port for both charging and data transfer
  • Optional stylus doesn't live up to expectations
  • Text and desktop mode items are small. Stylus accuracy needs improvement. Only 11GB free after initial setup. No docking keyboard option. USB Host requires dongle. No HDMI or DisplayPort
  • Lackluster camera
  • Full-size USB adapter not included
  • Wireless keyboard not yet available
  • MicroSD card required
  • Good vision a necessity
  • Broken auto brightness
  • No Micro HDMI to make use of desktop apps
  • Bad Windows key placement
  • Awkwardly placed Start button

  • Simple, light and sleek design, Long battery life, Capable quad-core processor, Good display quality, Affordable price point
  • No micro-HDMI output
  • The Dell Venue 8 Pro has a lot of promise and potential. It can be a netbook or laptop replacement, although you might need an external mouse or keyboard every once and a while. It's a companion device and a capable productivity tool. It's like having a l...

  • Lightweight, Decent Screen, Good Viewing Angles
  • Can get Hot, Cant get Full Brightness, Low Usable Storage
  • The Dell Venue 8 Pro is certainly a capable tablet and coupled with a stand and keyboard it can be a capable budget laptop as well. It comes with a full version of Windows and the inclusion of Microsoft Office is a good bonus. At AED 1299 in some shops ...

  • La Dell Venue 8 Pro es una tableta interesante para el usuario que no quiere prescindir del ecosistema Windows y busca un producto económico, ligero y con el que poder trabajar sin echar mucho de menos su portátil. La mera inclusión del paquete Office al...

  • Compte tenu de ce que nous avons pu voir, il n'est pas question de prédire l'envolée du jeu sur tablettes Windows à court ou moyen terme. Cependant, alors que bon nombre d'entre nous attendent qu'Android s'enrichisse en jeux de qualité, notre passion pour...

  • Prix intéressant, Format 8 pouces très agréable avec Windows 8, Connectique complète, Performances très correctes, Réactivité du tactile, Qualité audio très bonne
  • Autonomie un peu justeTablette un peu lourde (environ 400 grammes)Puce graphique trop juste pour les jeux vidéos gourmands en ressource
  • C'est la belle surprise venant de Dell ! Cette Venue 8 pro est une réussite et plaira autant aux professionnels qu'aux familles. Un écran de 8 pouces parfaitement adapté à Windows 8.1, une connectique complète et une tablette qui réagit parfaitement sans ...

  • Deux conclusions s'imposent à l'issue de ce face à face. La première, c'est qu'aucune n'est parfaite : que ce soit la Dell Venue Pro 8, qui a malgré tout notre préférence, ou la Lenovo Miix 2, chacune a ses petits défauts. La Venue est un peu plus lour...

  • Très bonne finition, Ecran de bonne qualité, Office 2013 fourni, Version 4G disponible
  • Placement absurde du bouton Windows, Poids un tout petit peu trop élevé, Peu d'espace dispo sur 32 Go
  • La Dell Venue Pro 8 est certainement une des meilleures tablettes Windows 8.1, et en tous cas, la meilleure qu'on ait testée au format 8 pouces. Ca ne signifie pas qu'elle est exempte de défauts: on lui reprochera certains choix ergonomiques comme le pla...

  • Un très bon écran, une belle autonomie et Windows 8 dans moins de 400 grammes… Alors bonne affaire cette Dell Venue 8 Pro ? Si l'on met en face de ses nombreux points forts un prix agressif de 269eur pour la 32Go, il est difficile de reprocher grand-cho...
