The editors didn't like
No ports on tablet chassis
Requires Expansion Jacket for USB
HDMI
Etc. No alternate charging. MicroSD and SIM slot requires paper clip. Limited multimedia creation. Doesn't work with Wacom digitizer stylus
Very slow performance with application software
Maximum of 64MB of storage (32MB standard)
No USB ports on the tablet itself (only on the dock or optional cases)
Productivity Jacket bulky
Sharp edges
Slow hard drive
Tablet lacks connectivity without Smart Jackets
Which cost extra
Productivity Jacket (keyboard) is expensive and disappointing
Lower-resolution screen than competing devices
The base tablet starts out expensive
And those docks and jacket accessories add even more to the cost. Intel's Atom performance continues to underwhelm
Keys often stick
Poor weight distribution
No cover to protect the bulb Share & EnjoyTweet Author

Thin and light, Feels good to hold, Heaps of options
Lacks built-in USB and video out, Low screen resolution, Optional extras can add significantly to the overall cost
If you require a Windows tablet that's thin and light, then the ElitePad 900 is for you. It runs an Intel Atom CPU, so it's not quick, but it can run for many hours on end and it won't get warm. It doesn't have much built in (not even USB), but there are...

Lacks built-in USB and video out, Low screen resolution, Optional extras can add significantly to the overall cost
The slim and light nature of the ElitePad 900 makes it a comfortable mobile device to use for long periods of time and we think it's a great device to choose if these are your main criteria. Furthermore, because it's an Atom-based unit, it doesn't get war...

HP has a number of very useful accessories for its ElitePad. We covered many of them, but left out things like an adapter for connecting the tablet to a VGA or HDMI display, and the Expansion jacket is available without battery as well (H4J85AA). When y...
A wellbuilt machine that will withstand a few knocks; IT management and security tools; Lots of accessories
Modest performance from Atom chip and 32bit software; Lack of ports without accessories; High price
For the price, other tablets may offer more value and productivity. If your IT department insists on having a Windows 8 tablet, the Dell Latitude looks a better bet....

Solid construction; good battery life; Computrace and HP Client Security tools
Modest performance; few I/O ports; integrated battery
HP's ElitePad 900 is a semi-rugged Windows tablet optimised for the corporate environment, with includes security and management tools. Its lack of I/O ports may make this tablet less attractive than some comparable devices unless buyers also invest in a ...
Abstract: A square slate, all black Gorilla Glass on the front and silver aluminum on the back, the HP ElitePad 900 is a stylish Windows 8 tablet . The bezel is wide and the corners rounded. Edges taper to a point that is almost sharp to the touch. See our full HP ...

Enterprise ready accessories, Simple design, Full size HDMI on Expansion Jacket
No ports on tablet chassis itself, MicroSD and SIM slot access is fiddly, Limited multimedia capabilities
And that last point pretty much sums things up here. If your business is committed to HP services and products through contracts, then the HP ElitePad 900 is a very good Windows 8 tablet for the SMB though enterprise organisation. However, if you're wi...
Overall, HP seems to have developed a sturdy offering both in terms of the ElitePad's physical form and its security software bundle, but appearances can be deceptive. The Sim and micro SD card slots proved troublesome and, as I type, I'm still waiting f...
The HP ElitePad 900 is a well-built and nicely designed Windows 8 tablet aimed at business users. It's no great performer, although battery life is decent. If you need an extremely portable Windows PC for around £600, you could do a lot worse. But you may...
