Kasla Android wenno iOS a tablet, ti Venue 8 Pro ket agtultuloy a version ti Windows 8.1 tapno makasakbayka iti amin a software ken aplikasion nga adda kadagiti laptop wenno netbook.

Agpaman ti baetan ti kaso? Ti tablet, ti charger, ti USB cable, ti warranty card ken ti Windows 8 License (a mangiyebat ti seryal a numero, ta saan ka nga agbaba iti daytoy).

Kasapian ti tablet -- makalawlaw a body ti polycarbonate, textured a likudan, bright HD a display, ken 5MP rear camera. Ti power button ket adda iti kanawan a side kasla ti volume controls ken ti micro USB port.

Kinuna ti Dell a makapalabes ti baterya aginggana iti 9.9 oras no agtignay dagiti pelikula. Ngem, babaen ti panagusarmi kadagitoy para iti 24 nga oras, napudno a matmatang ti baterya, ngem adda kami a pannakaduda a saan met laeng a makapalabes aginggana iti inay-ayam a 10 nga oras (dagiti mas naipatpatong ket mairaman iti purnong review).

Adda pay ti optional accessory, ti Stylus Pen, a mangserbi kas pointing device iti lugar ti mouse. Kasapulanmi nga agkita daytoy a pen iti maysa a few weeks idiay ket adda kami iti US para iti CES.

Agpayso a makita no maitedmi ti desktop gaming iti daytoy a bassit a tablet. Para iti agdama, pinakaibabana mi nga adda Bluetooth keyboard a maikuyog kadagiti panagsurat a napigsa wenno dagiti kaaduan. Agpangato para iti kami a bukod a review iti maysa a semana wenno dua.

You are surprised by the performance of bay trail? Wow.. fyi,, its comparable or even faster than the snapdragon800 cpu wise. It is almost equal to the old core2duo.

Im using it, i got it from amazon last november for only 18k for 64gb – includes all tax and shipping here at ph.

It is the best tablet imo, it got everything you want from a tablet. Its internet capability is awesome (dont use chrome its laggy), games are endless! From desktop version of angrybirds, plant vs zombies, fruit ninja (which are all touch friendly) to great games like left4dead, dota, civilization 5, and wolf among us – ofcourse you need a mouse.

This tablet is just perfect. My battery info said it can last up to 8 hours with a heavy use – not bad, considering its better than nexus 7 2013.

Did i mention it has a full office for free?

Dell Venue 8 pro is a decent Windows 8.1 tablet

but i would suggest waiting for the Asus Vivotab 8 early next year before making a decision

Was about to buy this in Amazon as an HTPC alternative, but alas, walang HDMI.

Can you guys have a look how it plays 1080 vids and how it handles connection via chromecast? Thanks.

uh,

“which contains the serial number so don’t loose it”
loose = maluwag, lose = matalo/mawala

I hope this gets released here in the Ph, and close to the price range in the US. I would really get one if it does. I may need this kind of device for simple Office apps, video lessons and note-taking.

Try visiting http://www.villman.com. I think they sell this sub 20k last time i checked… :)

I was looking for an alternative to the Note 8 and this was my first choice because it has support for a stylus and it can run Win 8 software. After reading a lot of negative reviews about the use of the stylus I settled for a Tegra Note 7 instead even if it’s not Windows based. Been using it mainly for note taking and it’s a very good alternative than the Note 8 with its proprietor Snote app. With Notes Anytime and it’s availability in all platforms, it’s a steal at $200. Quite good for gaming also.
