HP SlateBook 14-p010nr

The HP SlateBook 14-p010nr is an Android 4.3 Jelly Bean device with the functionality of a laptop form and Android application. The matte black cover is accented with a yellow HP logo and there is yellow trimming around the black interior as well. This gives a contemporary look not commonly found on other HP laptops with a few exceptions. The SlateBook features a 14 inch Active Marix TFT Colour LCD with FHD resolution. The screen quality is decent. Thanks to its 16:9 aspect ratio, the SlateBook can also serve well as entertainment platform.

Hardware on the HP SlateBook 14-p010nr consists of an NvidiaTegra 4 (T40) quad core processor clocked at 1.8 GHz, 2 GB RAM and 16 GB SSD. Storage can be increased with a microSD and many users will certainly do this because of the very limited internal storage. To combat the lack of storage after OS installation, HP has packed the device with many pre-install applications to enable a more capable platform right out of the box. The  HP SlateBook 14-p010nr weights 3.57 lb (1.62 kg) and comes with a maximum battery life of 9 hours.

The HP Slatebook is a strange device. It's very well built and is one of the most attractive laptops we've seen in a long time. However, Android operating system is unsuitable to many tasks you‘d traditionally expect to be able to do on a laptop, aside from gaming. It‘s easy at this point to recommend a good 10-inch tablet, but the best of these such as the Sony Xperia Z2 cost closer to £400, which is £70 more expensive than the Slatebook.

Thus, the SlateBook 14 is neither a competent laptop nor a serviceable Android device. If you want a laptop experience on an Android-equipped device, go with the Asus Transformer Pad TF103C$245.88 at Amazon, which costs $299 and comes with a detachable keyboard dock. If you want a laptop for Web surfing and document editing for under $430, Chromebooks like the HP Chromebook 11 (Verizon LTE)$299.00 at Best Buy and the Toshiba CB35-A3120 Chromebook are much better choices.

From a construction and style standpoint, the SlateBook 14 is a respectable laptop for the money—as long as you don’t mind all that bright-yellow plastic. It’s thin, relatively light, and easy to hold on to with one hand while you navigate the Internet with the other. If you like Android well enough to use it on your laptop day-in and day-out, you’ll want to do so on a computer equipped for the task, like this one, with Android-specific keyboard shortcuts and a touch screen.

The limitations of Android drag the Slatebook down. That’s a real shame, because it’s otherwise an excellent budget notebook. We have no complaints about its performance, battery life or interface. While the display could be better, it’s already solid given its $429 MSRP. We’re a bit puzzled as to why this notebook does not run Chrome OS. Perhaps it’s not powerful enough. Maybe the touchscreen seemed to be a better fit for Android.

If the SlateBook 14 were a detachable or convertible and you could use it in tablet mode, it would make more sense. What's the point of having Android if you can't take full advantage of it? Instead, you're left with a laptop that's plagued with a dull display with shallow viewing angles, a finicky touchpad and lackluster performance.

Comment

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.


These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

NVIDIA GeForce ULP (Tegra 3): Integrated Ultra Low Power (ULP) graphics card in the Tegra 3 SoC. Similar to the Tegra 2 GPU but with additional pixel shaders and optimizations.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

NVIDIA GeForce Tegra 4: Integrated graphics card in the Tegra 4 SoC with 48 pixel and 24 vertex shaders (no unified shader architecture).

NVIDIA Tegra:

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.
