Hp Pro Slate 10 Ee G1 WiFi (2GB + 64GB) Review | 168 Data compared

The HP Pro Tablet 10 EE is a durable, education-focused Windows device designed for students, featuring an IP52-rated design to withstand rough handling. Its core strengths include a robust build, decent battery life, and useful connectivity options like Micro HDMI and microSD, though it is notably heavy (1.87 lbs) and thick. The tablet's primary drawbacks center on a low-quality screen with poor brightness, sluggish performance due to 1GB of RAM, and very low-resolution cameras. While suitable for classroom environments, TechRadar concludes the device is not suitable for adult productivity or general consumer use.

The HP Pro Tablet series, reviewed by Notebookcheck, offers a range of Windows-based devices tailored for professional and educational use, featuring robust construction and enterprise-focused security, such as TPM 2.0. Key models like the 8-inch Pro Tablet 608 G1 are noted for high-resolution displays (2048x1536) and good accessory options, while the 10 EE G1 targets classrooms with a durable, ruggedized chassis. Performance varies across the line, with some models like the 408 G1 utilizing older, less powerful Intel Atom "Bay Trail" processors that may struggle with modern, intensive tasks. Despite the performance limitations, the series delivers on productivity with active pen support, IPS displays featuring good contrast, and on-the-go connectivity options like 3G modems. The main drawbacks highlighted in the review include superior, more modern performance from consumer competitors, higher price points, and generally bulkier, heavier designs. While the rugged design and security features are positive, the high cost of optional, proprietary accessories reduces the overall value proposition, say Notebookcheck.
