The SlidePad's internal storage is (on paper) 64GB, but in practice, it delivers just over half of that ( 34,6 GB), which is somewhat disappointing, but not unexpected given the size taken up by Windows 8. SlidePad only includes one camera front 2 MP, good for video chats and selfies. The problem is that due to the tilt of the screen – which is not adjustable – I always had to bring the device closer to capture something beyond my forehead. The decision not to build a rear camera, in my opinion, was the right one.

If it's already embarrassing to see someone try to take pictures with tablets in general, imagine with a 1 KG device. One of the advantages of this hybrid is the number of ports available: 1 input USB 2.0, 1 micro-USB (of debatable utility), 1 port HDMI, card reader MicroSD and headset.

Unlike iPads and some Android tablets, the SlidePad does not charge via USB, only from a wall outlet. The speakers are best used in notebook mode, as the sound is muffled in tablet mode. The SlidePad's keyboard is compact, which means using a lot of keys like Fn and ALT to type certain characters, but it's comfortable to write and I noticed that in the period in which I used it, I wrote much more than when I use a tablet only with a virtual keyboard.

Now for the reading, it disappoints, especially in portrait mode, where the SlidePad borders on unusable due to the tablet's weight distribution and huge screen. The new Windows interface, introduced in version 8, with its large, animated icons and gestures for switching or closing applications, activating settings or searching, is much more pleasant to use on a device like the SlidePad, equipped with a Touch.
