Customer Ratings & Reviews

Almost identical in size to the latest 11” iPad Pro, the HP 11” Tablet PC is a good choice for the student or person who likes to work on the Microsoft Windows Operating System and have accessibility to documents on the go in a smaller device. Equipped with Windows 11 Home in S Mode, a Quad-core Intel Pentium N6000 processor, and Wi-Fi 6 (2 x 2) and Bluetooth wireless connection, one can easily use their Microsoft 365 account across hardware from desktop to laptop to tablet. The silver tablet and its touchscreen of durable Corning Gorilla Glass can display a resolution up to 2160 x 1440, and the colors are vivid and bright. It is an attractive, solid, dependable mobile device equipped with Intel UHD Graphics that can easily stream 4K content that is both clear and crisp. The tablet is packaged with a magnetic rear board and kickstand which sets it at a perfect angle in either portrait or landscape mode for viewing its screen or collaborating with colleagues, friends, or family through use of the internet. The HP True Vision 13 MP Rotatable Camera and built-in microphone makes it perfect for ZOOM meetings, Skype, etc., and the HPGlamCam widget allows for various camera configurations and automatic positioning of the front and rear camera. The power button also serves as a fingerprint reader which doubles as security for the device The tablet has 4 GB of internal RAM memory and a 128 GB SSD internal storage. It charges quickly and comes with a USB Type-C 5Gbps SuperSpeed Charging cable. The microphone is designed with a noise filter that reduces background noise which is very helpful when communicating by internet in a video conference or call. The Tablet PC works well, and users will find the progression of its use in line with all products that operate on the Microsoft Windows OS. The setup is identical to a desktop or laptop. One of the first things that I did was update the operating system with Windows Update, and then set it to do so automatically just like my desktop. The tablet is not only an Energy Star Product, but it also was designed to meet the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool’s rating of “Silver” status which means it easily meets 23 of the required 28 categories that measure electronic equipment and how each device individually affect our environment. It does not come with a stylus but has a magnetic edge to keep one on board or to keep the HP Rechargeable MPP 2.0 Tilt Pen attached (an optional purchase). It will not charge the Tilt Pen, but it will keep it with the device. There is also an optional keyboard that works with the Tablet PC in both landscape and portrait mode. With the use of “Duet” software from HP, this device can be used to connect to a secondary larger display, or it can be used to send files across any devices using Windows OS or HP QuickDrop. Set up your printer to work directly with the tablet and print directly from the tablet to your printer. For all of the HP Tablet PC’s many positive features, it does have a few questionable features which makes me give it a 4-star rating instead of 5-stars. The tablet doesn’t appear to have cellular included on board, and I cannot find anything in the system that indicates it can be connected to cellular; however, it does have a place for a sim card which is confusing. The battery charges rapidly with the type-C charging cord, but the battery life is not as good as I would have hoped for. I have searched around in the system to find ways to preserve the battery longer, but I haven’t found anything that I have done to noticeably help to increase the longevity of the battery’s life. The tablet is also noticeably slower than what I am used to using. Still, despite these negatives, it is a very good tablet for the money and is a perfect choice for many segments of society whether one’s needs involve education, business, work, or simply entertainment pleasure. In any of these scenarios, I think that most people would find this to be a good and viable choice.

A well built tablet with a superb screen that runs Windows 11 but, don’t expect high performance. This basic tablet is generally fine if your needs are web browsing, watching videos, viewing photos, word processing, playing simple games or other light duty jobs. However, it has some limitations. I’ll be covering the usual things like setting it up and such but not quoting specs as the product description covers that. I took mine out of Windows S mode so I could calibrate the display and run Crystal Disk Mark on it to check the SSD speed. Including photos of all my results. I also compared it to my 9th Generation iPad in certain areas. Setup is typical Windows but a little simpler. Once you have connected to the internet it will update itself. The tablet is in Windows S (Safe) Mode which limits you to the “safe” apps from the Microsoft Store. Anything not there that you might want to run such as Chrome, then you will need to switch out of Windows S Mode to Windows Home. Once you do this you can’t go back to S Mode. Pros: Build quality, stylish looks, superb 2.1K IPS screen, motorized camera, 128 GB storage, micro SD slot, WiFI 6, magnetic 2 position stand, auto dimming & auto color tone display, speaker placement, USB-C, robust charger included. Average: Sound quality, battery, performance for basic tasks. Cons: CPU can be sluggish for certain tasks and web pages, only 4GB of RAM, “stunningly” poor image quality from the coolest camera on any tablet, and fingerprint reader is inconsistent. Where the HP tablet shines is its build and screen. The HP tablet feels as good as my iPad. It’s the same size but slightly thicker and heavier. The stand’s build feels good too. The display is its best attribute. It’s on par with my iPad with color, contrast & resolution. PPI is a bit denser on the iPad since the screen is smaller, 10.2” vs 11”. HP claims 100% sRGB. My datacolor Spyder X Pro calibrated it to 98% sRGB. See photos. After calibration I think it slightly edges out the iPad’s color. You can set the display to automatically vary brightness & color temperature to suit the ambient lighting conditions. It looks like the HP has a laminated screen too. That means no gap between the glass and the LCD panel. Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5™ and a smaller bezel than the basic iPad. The motorized 13 MP camera is a cool innovation. Sadly, the iPad’s basic rear 8MP camera blew it away in every respect. See photos. Can firmware or drivers fix it or just a cheap camera module? Bringing up the camera app brings up HP GlamCam Widget which controls the camera’s tilt and zoom among other things. But it can get in the way. The camera app offers quite a bit of manual control. When you touch the shutter button it does take the photo that instant, I tested to see, but the feedback “Click” it makes, comes over 2 seconds later. This is unacceptable in 2022! If the camera’s images were as good as the iPad’s it would be very impressive. Sound quality is ok. Not much in the bass department compared to the iPad but clean highs. I do like the speaker placement around the display. Especially when watching videos full screen in landscape position. Beats iPad here. Fingerprint reader worked about 20% of the time for me. Even after rereading fingers 3 times in case I didn’t do it correctly the first 2 times. WiFi works perfectly with my Asus gaming router. Bluetooth worked with anything I tried with it. Earbuds, sound bars, headphones and Logitech BT keyboard. Speaking of keyboards, HP makes one that mates up with this tablet. You can buy them bundled too. As for the Windows Ink - stylus, I looked everywhere to see exactly which stylus worked on this tablet. No luck. I did find out that not all HP styluses work on all HP stylus enabled devices. So I didn’t buy one to compare it to the Apple Pencil and Samsung S-Pen. Battery life is quoted by HP: “Battery life mixed usage: Up to 6 hours and 45 minutes. Video Playback Battery life: Up to 9 hours and 30 minutes”. I would tend to agree with the mixed usage figures. Including a micro SD slot is never a bad thing. Performance is mediocre at best. 4GB of RAM is barely enough. It’s sluggish to rotate the screen when you rotate the tablet. Everything is a bit slow on it. Even my old Samsung Galaxy Note 10.2, 2014 edition tablet is as fast and takes better photos. Even has a flash. As for the 9th gen iPad, it’s snappy, has much better battery life and is $170 cheaper. However, it only has 64GB of storage and No micro SD slot. I wanted to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022 on it but 4GB of RAM isn’t enough and it probably would perform poorly. If you’re pretty familiar with using Windows, then using this tablet will be pretty much the same except for getting used to how Windows works with a touch screen. There are a few things that annoy me such as the size of the areas where you touch are very small and sometimes I have to touch them several times for it to acknowledge it. I did go through the personalization settings and display settings among others, to try to make those elements larger but, with little success. Trying to touch those tiny little boxes to select multiple files with a finger is about useless. Maybe there's a setting I haven’t found yet. Anyways, that’s a Windows issue and not an HP issue. I think Android and iOS have the edge with touch screen interfaces. Concerning the photos I posted. You can only post 6, so I do composites when I need to post more. You can right click to open them in a new tab or window and view them full size. My conclusion is that this HP tablet should sell for no more than $350 considering what it does or doesn’t do / lacks depending on how you look at it. I hate that I can’t recommend it considering how well it’s made and how good the screen looks. If they had put in a stronger CPU, 8GB of RAM and a better camera module in that very cool motorized mount, I would highly recommend it at $500.

I am disappointed that after a year the tablet began to deform on the sides. It is a very good product in its software but it heats up terribly and the battery does not last long. And now who is going to give me a guarantee?

This HP tablet with windows is new for me. I have/had windows laptops and desktops. Never a windows tablet?! So I wanted to try it out since I love windows devices and because you have full functionality with apps and software(almost all). I also wanted something so my wife and kids can use when they want the portability. This 11 inch tablet fits perfectly in the hand and the weight is just right for me and my wife. My 8 year thinks it’s a bit heavy. But it’s the nice HP build quality. And not some cheap plastic. Nice and very clean design. This acomes with a soft touch but sturdy backside foldable kickstand. A very Beautiful QHD screen that has great colors and great viewing angles as well the PPI count is super high. Netflix and YouTube videos look great, so do games as well. The camera is very cool with the automatic button to pop up and down. Is it absolutely needed? No but is it cool? Yes yes it is lol. Video quality is good but not perfect. Better than most I think. But not a huge deal unless less you work from home and zoom all day. Still pictures look solid as well. My daughter likes that feature. That’s probably the main selling Points with this windows tablet. I say that because while I will recommend this for its price point(or sale price),build quality and screen. The limited Ram of only 4gb and processor(not bad actually) maybe it’s the Ram that does slow this tablet down and kinda stops it from being even better. I do understand that the low-ish price would go up significantly if they add more Ram and maybe an i3. So it makes sense. I wish you could upgrade. Aside from minor hiccups, it does serve a purpose for regular everyday task like YouTube web surfing social media and light gaming. As far as gaming I will say the graphics processor can run most games smoothly. albeit only from the windows store. That’s another issue. This tablet runs in “s mode” which only allows for apps downloaded through windows store. You can change that i believe but I don’t need the hassle. So it’s fine. The windows store has almost everything. Though my wife was hoping to play sims 4 on the couch. She has it on her desktop so she will live obviously. Fingerprint scanner works great. That’s an important feature for me because I am sometimes lazy and don’t want to have to type in a very long password every time. Kickstand is cool as well but we all said we like this in our hands since it is a perfect size imo! Not too small not too big. So if you aren’t looking for a power house of a tablet or your kids want to step up from their old chromebook, then this is a solid option for sure. If you are a power user I would find something with at least an i3 and 8gb of ram and you should be set.

It performs at least as well as I expected, based on the hardware. For the $199.00 sales price, it is stellar, an actor cast for the right part. Not the leading Lady, but the winner for Best Supporting Actress. I have a nice desktop in my home office to do the heavy lifting. I will use this one mostly as a tablet, so I passed on the one with the keyboard and saved $100.00. I already have a Logitech K480 which I purchased to use with Fire Tablet I got in 2019, and it turns out the Logitech keyboard is perfect for this HP Tablet. It easily pairs to the tablet using Bluetooth and mouse pairs simultaneously. The slot on the keyboard is a perfect fit for the tablet and works well with or without the kickstand. (Using the kickstand provides additional viewing angles.) .... After trading in that 3-year-old Fire Tablet for $30.00, my final price for this sweet HP Tablet is $169.99. I love BestBuy!

Good for school or college. Battery life is 3 hr to 5hr.

I've been using tablets for years. And I have to compare this new HP 11" Tablet to other contemporary tablets with a similar price point. Like the Microsoft Surface Go, Apple iPad, and Samsung 7/8 Tablets. I have all 4. This HP Tablet has better screen resolution than the Surface Go and is very close to the same as a iPad and Samsungs. This Tablet ships with Windows 11 S. The S version means that you can only install applications from the Microsoft store, it also means that some OS functions will not be available (Microsoft claims S stans for Safety). For example I use Google Drive and Chrome on most of my computers/tablets. I can't run either of these without defeating the "S" mode (which is easy to do). But for review purposes I avoided doing this. Microsoft Surface Go also ships in "S" mode. But the Surface Go ships with a minimum of 8GB memory, and HP ships this tablet with 4GB. All 4 tablets are a similar in physical size. This weighs the most at: 21.1oz (without folding back); the Go weighs: 19.2 oz, the Samsung weighs: 17.6oz and the iPad weighs: 17.1oz. Using the HP I got between 7-8hrs of real use on the battery, which is not bad for a Windows Tablet, but far the +10hrs I get on my iPad and Samsung Tablets. Getting everything setup with Windows "S" took much longer than usual as I could not use Chrome to bring in various setting and MS brought over a bunch of broken icons (apps that could not be installed) when I signed in with my MS account. Which seems to be a requirement with Win 11 "S", you must have a Microsoft account (be connected to the internet) to do the initial set up. My initial reaction was that this tablet had a really nice screen, the colors were excellent, viewing angles excellent. It works very nicely as a tablet, nice typical size, without the magnetic stand the weight is reasonable, the magnetic folding back adds an additional 6oz, and it then feels much more like a Microsoft Surface tablet, but the back is removable, and it a can be easily used in either landscape or portrait mode. It also has a fingerprint reader, that works very well.(implemented like a Apple Air tablet). I used the base version, which does not come with a keyboard, with my own backlit BT keyboard and a BT mouse, both worked well, and I'm accustomed to using both with all of my tablets. So my initial experience was pretty positive, next I brought up edge and gmail in the browser; not exactly snappy; 20sec to load vs 4sec on my iPad vs 6sec on my windows notebook. As I loaded messages, the time that it took to display images was lagging, compare to my iPad and notebook with the same WiFi connection (5G AX). As I opened additional tabs, things got slower, a sign I believe, is caused by the limited 4GB memory. The HP 11 Table has only 2 ports a USB C charging port that can also be used as a Display Port to connect a second monitor (USB-C), this worked very nicely when duplicating the display, but when extending the desktop, it got even more sluggish. It worked, I had 2 full HD displays, but there was some jerky behavior, I don't think 4GB is sufficient for Windows with dual monitors. It also has a Micro SD card slot (that requires a tool or a pin to to access), I tried a 256Mb, 400Mb, 512Mb and 1Tb Micro SD cards, all worked without issues, they worked best (the fastest) when formatted with NTFS. I'm happy to see this, as it's my biggest complaint with Apple, lack of extendibility. Next I tried a Microsoft teams session, one of the best selling points of the HP 11 is that it features a 13MP camera, much better than all of it's competitors (only a iPad Pro [twice the price] comes close with a 12MP camera). But the HP camera not only looks at you, it can be pointed down to view documents or drawings. Pretty cool. With sufficient lighting it's most excellent, but does not work as well under low light conditions. But the resolution is excellent. I tried to being up a drawing program while running teams, it took over a minute to load with live video on the screen and my browser opened. Again I attribute this to too little memory. I rebooted, and just accessed Facebook, this worked pretty well, doing the simple stuff. But I then tried to run a game that does not run at all on my Samsung, well after 3 attempts I did get it loaded, once I switched to full screen it actually ran very well, a few screen repaint glitches (that I attribute to the app). going back to a windowed display with facebook active it struggled to keep up as I used Facebook at the same time. The long and short is HP almost made a decent Windows tablet. At the time this was released it was only available with 4MB memory. If it had 8MP it might be acceptable, but with only 4MB I'd have a tough time using it as I normally would. The flexibility of the camera is very nice, but using it with other apps at the same time is painfully slow. I wish it had 2 USB C ports so I could charge it and drive a separate USB-C display at the same time. I guess a powered USB-C hub might allow this but I did not have one on hand to try. My experience with Windows and 128GB of memory has been that system updates can quickly consume available disk space. Requiring you to run Disk Cleanup and select "Clean up system file" frequently to free disk space. I'd much prefer 256GB of SSD as the base (unless Windows 11 improves this - too early to tell).

Price is good and it also looks very beautiful but only it gets heated after some time.

For the most part I have been very happy with this HP 11" tablet. I work out of my truck a lot and use office to do most of my paper work. One thing I like about windows is after setting everything up I have all of my documents and spreadsheets at my finger tips. And this tablet has been great for running office and all of it's apps. The build quality of the unit it self feels good and high end. Has a kick stand that is very useful, can sign in with a fingerprint scan so no need for typing a pen or passcode. The screen is bright. Didn't have any issues using this out side in the sun light. Some of my tablets can get hard to see in direct sunlight. Has 128gb of storage. Which I feel will be more than enough for my use. I was able to find and print to my printer very easily. Worked great for Netflix's. Has a great picture, good battery life and sound quality. The only down side is I feel it's a little slow and lags some when opening apps. But all in all I'm happy with this unit and will continue to put it to good use.

HP has successfully redefined the use of Windows PC in this HP tablet 11". However, given the device specs, it's important to note that HP has made this tablet to target individuals who mainly focus on web surfing and productivity since the hardware specs are entry-level. Windows 11 Home in "S" mode Processor: Intel Pentium Silver N6000, Four cores RAM: 4GB LPDDR4x-2133MHz Graphics: Intel UHD Storage: 128GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Design: The table is well-made and has a very sleek design with an 11 inch gorgeous 2K display (2160x1440) Gorilla Glass 5 that is enough to protect the screen from unexpected damage and scratches. This tablet stands out for being placed vertically or horizontally with a back cover included in the base model or HP-designed compatible keyboard that can be purchased as a bundle. I found the unique 13MP rotatable camera that flips from the back to the front by a designated shutter button is practical and functional. Ports are minimal as only one USB-type C provides data transfer, charging, and power delivery with one slot for a micro SD card. Functionality and productivity: I found this tablet very helpful. It allows me to do my school work without a need to have a full PC, and MS office is smooth on this tablet and virtual conferences using Zoom and any other video calls software, in addition to quick sharing through HP QuickDrop file-sharing software. I could transfer photos and files between my iPad and this HP tablet in a blink of an eye with no hassle; I simply paired the two devices by scanning the QR code to authenticate the pairing request between her two devices, that is all. Pre-installed OS is Windows 10 S mode that is a Microsoft step to secure devices and restrict users to download apps/ software from the MS app store only. However, I have switched out of S to Home through the app store to download other needed software. I understand that S mode is secure and provides better performance, but I needed to use Zoom, so I was forced to switch out of S mode in order to download the app. My reservations about this tablet are: First, when being charged, the tablet becomes hot even though its in sleep mode Second, when I was using MS office and doing my Zoom meeting, the tablet tended to slow and lag, and commands took a couple of seconds to execute. This tablet is designed for a light load, and multitasking can be annoying. Other than that, this tablet is fantastic and works really well for essential use and productivity. The camera is super clear, and I did not experience any issues so far. The screen is fluid, and the battery seems enough for the whole day.

This tablet is a poor excuse for a touch screen. Always freezing up.

TLDR: (that’s Too Long, Didn’t Read) All of the capability of Windows 11 in a device nearly identical in size to an iPad Pro 11. Works well for everything that you might want a tablet for, but feels underpowered for anything more. Windows still isn’t a great experience for finger use but is getting better. Pros: * Bright, clear, high-resolution screen. * Designed for use in both Portrait and Landscape orientations. * Motorized rotating camera works for both back- and front-facing use. * Fingerprint reader works well. * Optional stylus docks magnetically to edge (top or side depending on device orientation). * Optional keyboard docks magnetically to edge (top or side depending on device orientation). Cons: * Windows 11 still has rough edges for finger-only use. * Device is slow for anything more than basic use. * Camera image quality is not great and is also not suitable for Windows Hello facial recognition. * Fingerprint reader’s position requires both left- and right-hand use depending on device’s orientation. * SIM tray is present but no cellular radio built-in. Details - Setup: Setting up the hardware was about as simple as can be. The provided USB-C power adapter is reasonably small with a long flexible cable which cannot be disconnected from the adapter portion. The power prongs fold in so the adapter is travel-friendly. The connection on the tablet is on the left (landscape) or top (portrait) edge. The left edge works well while in landscape but is a tad awkward having the cable come out of the top of the tablet when in Portrait orientation. The provided back cover doubles as a stand and attaches magnetically to the tablet. It bends in the middle and works really well to prop the tablet up in both orientations and can even be folded mostly back on itself to create an easel for the tablet. The cover is a tad heavy so it contributes to more heft but is attractive and useful. This model didn’t come with the detachable keyboard but there are pogo pin connections on the bottom of the tablet when in either orientation. The rest of the setup is standard Windows 11 which is fun and easy. The on-screen keyboard was usable for basic entry of passwords and email addresses but I wouldn’t want to type a long emails on it. Details - Typical Usage: This is where the value proposition comes in… This device is nearly identical in size to traditional tablets such as the iPad Pro 11”, so that is likely what you’d compare it to. For basic media consumption, web browsing and the like, this device works well enough while giving you the flexibility of Windows 11 to do more. It is priced far less than an iPad Pro 11, too. If you’re shopping for a portable Windows 11 device to do productivity tasks like editing large spreadsheets, working in Adobe Photoshop or switching between a lot of apps while working on a project, this tablet will work, but you’ll probably be disappointed in its speed. Traditional tablets now have “mobile” versions of most productivity apps that work well with fingers and mobile environments, too. Windows 11 still isn’t completely comfortable to use with a finger as your primary navigation device. A stylus or mouse is really needed to do anything other than basic stuff, and this device comes with neither but works well with both. Due to the basic processor and small amount of RAM, when stressed with a lot of “heavy” apps, this tablet grinds to a halt. Sure, Netflix and web browsing work well, but if that’s all you need, a basic iPad (Air or non-Pro) or Android tablet will be a lot cheaper and work just as well. Presuming full Windows 11 compatibility is what you want and the processing power isn’t a turn-off, this tablet has some really nice design features. The thin rectangular power button has a fingerprint reader built in on its surface. I doubt it’s as a secure as a fingerprint sensor on a larger square button, but it’s probably enough security while providing convenience. My one complaint, though, is that you’ll most likely want to enroll a finger from each hand because it’s awkward to reach your right hand to the power button when the device is in Landscape orientation, or reach your left hand across to the power button when the device is in Portrait orientation. The camera is rather unique in that there is a single camera module that is on a motorized arm. Normally, the camera is back-facing but a tap on the dedicated button on the left edge of the tablet rotates it to be front-facing for selfies or video calls. You can even rotate it to be angled more toward the center of the screen for video calls or to view something placed on the table in front of the tablet when in Portrait mode. HP provides a nice Camera Utility that lets you assign camera rotation positions based on the app running; so you can have the camera automatically rotate for video call apps like Zoom or Teams. You just need to be careful to not block the camera’s rotation if set to automatic. The back cover/stand even has a cutout for the camera. Even though the camera is rated at 13MP, the video quality was merely adequate; especially in lower light situations like one might find on video calls. If you choose to buy a stylus, there’s a magnetic docking area on the top (Landscape)/ right (Portrait) edge. My Microsoft Slim 2 stylus docked there quite nicely. It doesn’t charge the stylus when docked like the iPad Pro, though. My model doesn’t have the optional keyboard, but there appears to be spots to attach it when in either orientation. This optional keyboard would also really help for more hardcore use as it has a trackpad to supplement finger navigation. Battery life is OK but not awesome .. as would be expected from a full Windows 11 device. It’s not as good as a traditional tablet, but is good enough for most needs. Speaker volume is OK, too… not awesome but not bad. Again, I think that a traditional tablet (iPad or Android) would be better for media consumption for the speakers, too. A note about Windows 11 on this tablet… this tablet has Windows 11 in “S” mode whereby you are restricted to installing apps from the Windows App Store “for security and efficiency” reasons. You can remove that restriction and have full Windows 11 “Home” mode, but doing so is irreversible. I tried to install the free Microsoft utility that automatically rotates Bing “image of the day” as my desktop wallpaper, but that was not authorized in “S” mode. Just something to be aware of. Conclusion: This tablet is a direct competitor to the Microsoft Surface line of tablets and likely will be cross-shopped with traditional tablets like an iPad or Android tablet. For basic media consumption, web browsing, email and light productivity tasks, it works well but a traditional tablet will be cheaper and faster. For moderate productivity tasks where having full Windows 11 might be advantageous, it works well but Windows still isn’t as comfortable to use with a finger as the traditional tablets. A more powerful tablet like an iPad Pro might be a better choice. For laptop-replacement tasks, this tablet will work but will really will let you down.

I have 2 PCs, 2 laptops and 2 smartphones, but this is my first tablet. I thought it would be a nice addition for those times when the laptop was too big and the phone too small. This was also my first experience with Windows 11, so to evaluate the tablet, I first had to learn Windows 11. I have Chrome as the default browser on all my other devices. The passwords, favorites, etc. are synced which makes it very easy to switch between devices. When I tried to download Chrome on the HP laptop I got a message that I would have to switch out of S mode to do so. I didn’t know what “S mode” was but soon found out. S mode is promoted as an enhanced security and performance feature of Windows 11. It uses Windows Defender antivirus, will only allow downloads from the Microsoft Store and requires that Edge be used as the browser. I tried installing Chrome anyway, but got a message that if I did, the apps and other features may not work. Once switched out of S mode, there is no going back. Until I decide if I want to do that, I’m having to look up and re-enter all my passwords and favorites. There are several annoying things about Edge, some of which I was able to change. The two things I should’ve been able to change but couldn’t were the Quick Links and the Favorites. Both were synced in from some device I had years ago and were wrong. Touching a Quick Link did nothing. Pressing the 3 dots on the Quick Link would not open up the option to remove the link. Favorites can be arranged alphabetically or deleted, but I haven’t been able to reorganize them by dragging and dropping. These could be Edge issues and not specific to the tablet. The tablet default type size is very small, but it can be adjusted in the settings. The keyboard default size is very large, but it can also be adjusted. I started out using my finger to touch, but soon switched to a stylus pen. The screen either wouldn’t recognize my touch or my finger was too big and I’d touch something I didn’t mean to. Using a pen worked much better, but sometimes required a firm poke. There were several times when a Widget would come up that I couldn't get rid of by touching, poking or swiping. Sometimes a really firm swipe would work. Taking pictures is a challenge. It’s almost impossible to hold the tablet to take a picture without touching an app or a widget - no matter how I rotated it. In landscape orientation the camera is right where I need to put my fingers to hold the tablet. In portrait mode the tablet is top heavy and hard to hold steady. Often I would touch something, causing the screen to go black just as I was about to take the picture and I would have to open the app again and start over. Focusing takes a few seconds. Pictures were sharp indoors and out but had an artificial look to them. The camera can be rotated into the selfie mode by pressing a button on the side of the tablet. The camera can also be rotated using the HP Glam Cam Widget. There is a slider bar in the Widget that pops out the camera by degrees until it is fully rotated. I watched movies from several different sources. I watched them simultaneously on my HP PC with a 4K monitor as a comparison. The sound was similar on both. Colors were bright and semi-stationary objects were sharp on the tablet. However, fast moving objects were distorted and there was frequent buffering on the tablet but not on the PC. Downloads seemed slow and multi-tasking seemed to be an issue. When downloading an app and going into settings at the same time, the download aborted. The battery life is average. A day of watching movies and videos drained the battery twice. When just taking pictures, customizing, browsing, etc. I was able to get through 2 days without recharging. Battery life can be extended by shutting down when not in use. As on a phone, a push of the on/off button only turns off the display - not the device. Shut down is accomplished by holding the button in or finding the power button in one of several places in the software. On the positive side, it connected within seconds to my wireless network and has maintained the connection. It rotates smoothly and quickly from portrait to landscape - most of the time. It comes with a magnetic kickstand with fabric on one side. When not in use, the kickstand can be attached flat to the back of the tablet and the fabric helps with the slipperiness. The glass is Gorilla glass - which should be durable. It has an 11 inch screen, 4GB of memory and a 128GB SSD. It weighs close to 2 pounds with the kickstand attached and can be heavy to hold for long periods of time. I’m not sure what I’ll use it for. Definitely not for taking pictures or watching movies as I have better options. I can use it to check my email, messages and on-line sales alerts while at home - but I can do that just as easily on my phone. Multi-tasking and business functions are quicker on my PC. Walking around with the tablet is easier than walking with a laptop and it’s easier to type something lengthy on the tablet keyboard vs. a phone. And it’s sometimes easier to browse a website than the corresponding app. It does have a SIM card tray. I can see it being most useful in a situation where mobility is needed and a phone is too small. Or when traveling - with an active SIM card or available Wi-Fi.

Barely used and less than 3 mos since it was bought, i can’t use it. It turns on but not responding. Touch screen is not working so i can’t log in. Waste of money on this tablet.

Summary: A pretty cool little device with outstanding build quality but… the small amount of RAM and relatively slow processor hold it back from being amazing. Good for media consumption, not great for heavy work or gaming. Unboxing: The unit is sold in a box that looks very much like something Apple would make. It is a small box with the picture in the front and lots of white with little description. Upon opening, there is a long USB-C cable with adaptor, documentation, the rear cover/stand (magnetic) and the device. First impression: The device feels extremely high quality in the hands. It has a good weight and is made mainly of metal. It feels durable and comfortable to hold over long periods in both landscape and portrait mode. It looks cool! The initial boot and setup do not take long and the first time you click the camera button and see it rotate up, there is definitely a WOW factor. The magnetic cover/stand is great and very well built! It holds well at pretty much any angle and is textured with fabric. Setup: Very easy with Windows 11 preloaded. Everything connects easily and setup is a fast process. This is where things went south. If you start to update your computer, I recommend you do it overnight in Windows Update and the Windows Store. The 4GB of RAM and Pentium (4 core, 4 thread) processor chug along. Doing one task at a time it is ok but multitasking with updates, it takes forever. Use: After updating everything, the device works well for one task at a time. Doing any multitasking whatsoever causes issues. I tried playing Spotify in the browser while doing some web browsing and the music would often stutter or stop playing. If you run multiple programs at once, you will likely take a performance hit. One task at a time such as browsing, typing, or viewing photos and videos works fine though. The smallish screen works fine enough for finger input but would be greatly improved with a pen. HP really should have included a pen. The on-screen keyboard works well enough, and I had no issues. I did not feel a physical keyboard was necessary but there is one available for sale that connects, or you can just use a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse if you wish. Camera: As stated earlier, it is cool! Otherwise the 13MP camera makes above average photos in comparison to most tablets and laptops. Great for zoom calls. Sound: The audio sounds great! Very good range with loud speakers. Start a playlist and let it sit for some decent audio that is better than most laptops! Screen quality: Again, very nice overall. I wouldn’t do photo editing on it, but the screen quality is high enough resolution for the size and plenty vibrant. Overall it is a great buy if you want something just for watching movies, zoom calls (great camera). If you plan on doing any real work on this, move on to something else.

This is a good device for light media consumption. It has a nice, vivid screen that really pops. It comes with Windows 11 in S-mode. Sadly, the windows store really prevents S-mode from being a viable option. It lacks too many mainstream apps to work. I noticed a fair amount of performance drop after switching out of S-mode. I'm typing this review on this tablet in Chrome, and the lag is just awful. I'm hoping that an update can fix this. The build quality is excellent. The housing feels very premium. I'm not loving the magnetic stand though. It feels unpleasantly stiff, and trying to force it into position tends to pop it off. The camera quality is excellent, but I struggle to think of a use case for having it on the short edge like this. I tend to split my screen with chat to my right and a document or webpage to my left. Portrait mode isn't conducive to this. Being able to flip the camera around could be useful for both video calls and document scanning. I do like this feature. I really hope they sell the keyboard cover for this separately. If nothing else, it would help to protect the screen.

HP - 11" Tablet - Intel Pentium - 4GB Memory - 128GB SSD I am reviewing the HP Tablet for BestBuy and the product is offered with or without a keyboard. I requested and was sent a tablet without a keyboard because the tablets with a keyboard were already taken. So, for a few days I was evaluating it without the keyboard though I do have a third-party keyboard on order. If the tablet use is intended to be like a Windows PC, a keyboard would be of great benefit. Hardware wise, the screen is a very nice 11 inch display. The processor is an Intel Pentium, with 4gb RAM and the 128GB SSD. There is one external port - a USB-C, which is primarily, if not exclusively for electric power. The battery seemed to last an adequate, but not outstanding amount of time. The camera is capable of use for selfies or for outward use. The operating system for the tablet is Windows 11 S Edition. This means it can only run apps available on the Windows App Store. The tablet can be upgraded to a full Windows 11 system. The tablet seems to fit between a iPAD or Android tablet and a MS Surface Pro Tablet/Computer. As a tablet with Windows, the tablet performs very well with tablet applications such as email, web surfing, note-taking, etc. MS Office is installed on the SSD but the app would need to be activated through Microsoft. Overall, I really like this tablet and I could see a lot of uses for it with or without a keyboard. I use an iPAD but when I want to do real work my Windows 11 PC is my preferred computer. This tablet gives one a low end Windows 11 PC and a standalone tablet in one unit. It supports a pen and comes with a stand to position the tablet how you might want. I rated this HP tablet for its versatility and functionality. With a companion keyboard I may have give this product five stars. But, as it is, if I was in the market for a Windows 11 tablet and would not need high-end processing power, I would have not problem buying or recommending this tablet.

This is a very good affordable pc tableat, i couldn't get in time.

Just received it yesterday afternoon and returning it this morning. It was an open box item but description never mentioned it. It never turn on even the first thing I did was charging it . The only three seconds that looked it was turning on showed someone else’s profile picture and name. It also looks like charging port was damaged because the light that shows is charging only turns on if cable is in certain position.

Overall I think this tablet has its pros and cons. To start with the pros, the product itself it well built and does not seems flimsy like other tablets. Its rounded corners make for a smooth grasp too unlike some of its competitors that have a hard, ridged edge. The display is bright and vivid too, and and has a nice display that is sure to light up a room. One thing that I was not used to was that it really is like a mini computer, no tiles, or predetermined apps to click so there is a bit of a learning curve when it came to opening and closing programs, saving, double clicking etc. It was easy to get used to but at first was a little odd to navigate. One area that I was not too happy with was the processing speed, it was a little disappointing. I did a comparison with a laptop, my smartphone and a competitor's tablet and this tabled seemed to be noticeably behind in terms of processing speeds and timing to jump from web page to web page (all devices were on same network). I think that if you are looking for a tablet that i durable and well built, but speed it not a top prior then this would be a good fit for you. My son uses this and is very happy cruising streaming services. Me, on the other hand needs something a bit more speedy in processing and completing tasks online.
