Noticeable lag when rotating display
Expensive
Below-average battery life
Fan can be noisy
Too big and awkward to hold for long periods
Poor sound-recording capabilities

The tablet loses some of its functional appeal
Not cheap
But you do get what you pay for
Fan runs almost all the time
Heat exhaust vent impedes use in portrait mode
Windows remains a struggle with a penandfinger interface. Samsung's Tabletesque addon is only threequarters baked. Dock and wireless keyboard cost extra. Tepid battery life of about 4.5 hours
Onscreen typing is finicky and headache-inducing. The sold-separately dock and keyboard are practically required
Abstract: Tablet PCs are a dying breed, and Windows 8 is still at least a year away. Until we see what Microsoft's next operating system has to offer, one tablet PC shows us why this form factor is still a winner. Samsung's Series 7 11.6" Slate breaks the mold. ...
PLS screen (wide viewing angles), good contrast (790:1), Decent battery life (4 hrs 20 mins), Windows OS (loads of compatible software), Can switch between standard and tabletstyle Windows interfaces
Processing power capped, No mouse included, Gaming performances very limited, No stylusholder
The Samsung Slate PC is a versatile product that can be used as a tablet or a static workstation. As a tablet, the Slate PC XE700 is a good solution for fans of Windows 7, as it's the best implementation of Microsoft's OS we've seen yet in a touchscree...
The Samsung Series 7 Slate 700T is an 11.6-inch tablet, offering full PC versatility and power in a package that's not much larger than a regular Apple iPad. It's not as desirable as the iPad 2, but it could be just the ticket if you need to run Windows or any Windows-based programs. The Samsung Series 7 Slate 700T is surprisingly small for a Windows-based machine, measuring in at just 12.5mm in
However good the Samsung Series 7 Slate 700T may be as an all-round package, it's still not as finger-friendly to use as a tablet as its rivals. There's a custom interface to hide the Windows OS, and you'll be able to use lots of different widgets, but carry out a few tasks and you'll find yourself heading back into the world of Windows. It's passable, but it's simply not as good as iOS on a tabl
The Samsung Series 7 Slate 700T is the tablet to have if you need to run Windows. It's powerful, incredibly portable, looks great and is packed with features – we especially like the Bluetooth keyboard and dock. It still can't match Apple or Android in...
Most powerful Windows 7 tablet, Beautiful PLS screen, Thin and light, Wacom pen, Media dock, Wireless Bluetooth keyboard
Build quality issues, No carrying case/pen storage, Awkward aspect ratio, Windows 7 not designed for touch, No USB 3, 128GB SSD or 3G option
With its sleek lines and alluring finish, the Samsung Series 7 Slate 700T is the most attractive Windows 7 tablet going. It's also the most powerful, and the one with the best accessories thanks to its included Wacom stylus, media dock and wireless keyboa...
The device no doubt is big and heavy and a substantial chunk of the weight of this tablet is due to its bigger battery pack that powered this device for up to 5 hours of hardcore computing, or at least 1.5 days worth of productivity and multimedia. Playing videos...
Diseño premium, Materiales de gran calidad, Estación de docking incluida, Teclado bluetooth, Touch launcher, Display brillante con buenos ángulos de visión, Rendimiento satisfactorio, Veloz SSD, Gran duración de batería
Carcasa frontal muy reflectante, Borde superior muy cálido, Errores con el stylus
Con el slate PC, Samsung está en terreno infrecuente y ofrece un concepto interesante. Para ello el fabricante pide un enorme fajo de billetes. A cambio al usuario se le promete lo mejor del mundo de portátiles y tablets. Y, de hecho, el XE700T1A conve...
Bonnes performances (Core i5), Poids et tailles corrects pour une slate, La logithèque Windows, Station d'accueil et clavier inclus
Vivement Windows 8, Reste trop lourd pour un usage tablette, Capteurs vidéo très décevants, Trop cher
Le Slate PC Series 7 est un appareil mobile délicat à évaluer. Mi tablette, mi PC portable, il a déjà au moins l'avantage de bénéficier d'une conception assez réussie compte tenu de son cahier des charges. Contrairement à l'Acer Iconia Tab W500, la tablet...
Dalle PLS (angles de vision ouverts) contrastée (790:1), Autonomie correcte (4h20), OS Windows = grande suite logicielle disponible, Bascule vers un mode tablette pertinent
Processeur bridé, Pas de souris fournie, Capacités très limitées dans les jeux, Pas d'emplacement pour le stylet
Tablette ou station de travail polyvalente ? À vous de juger l'usage que vous en ferez. Pour une tablette, le Slate PC XE700 pourra séduire les fans de Windows 7 puisqu'il s'agit de la meilleure expérience de l'OS sur écran tactile mobile. Pour un PC t...
