Verdict

The Samsung ATIV Tab (GT-P8510) is a 10.1-inch tablet featuring a 1366 x 768 resolution display and running on the ARM-based Windows RT operating system. It is powered by a 1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus processor and, in this specific configuration, offers 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, expandable via a microSD slot. Key characteristics include its remarkably slim 8.9mm profile, a lightweight 570g plastic build, and a large 8,200 mAh battery providing approximately 10 to 12 hours of usage. Main pros include its highly portable design, the inclusion of a full-size USB 2.0 port and micro-HDMI for excellent connectivity, and pre-installed Microsoft Office Home & Student 2013. However, significant cons include the limited selection of apps available in the Windows Store and the inability to run legacy desktop Windows software due to the RT architecture.
