Verdict

The HP TouchPad is a 9.7-inch tablet featuring a 1024 x 768 IPS LED-backlit display and running the intuitive webOS 3.0 operating system. Powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8060 processor and 1GB of RAM, this 32GB model provides a unique card-based multitasking interface and integrated Beats Audio for enhanced sound. Main pros include its smooth multitasking, high-quality stereo speakers, and a full-featured web browser with Flash support. However, it suffers from a significant lack of third-party apps, a relatively heavy and bulky plastic build (1.6 lbs), and occasional software sluggishness.
