HP has announced the SlateBook x2 the company’s new tablet with support for a keyboard dock similar to the Asus Transformer series. The SlateBook X2 has a 10.1-inch (1920 by 1200 pixels) IPS display, powered by a quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 4 processor and runs on Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean). It has a full-sized detachable keyboard dock with a touch pad. The Keyboard has a full HDMI port, USB 2.0, an SD slot, and an audio port. It also has a battery that would let you charge the battery inside the tablet.qua
It has DTS Sound + Solution for immersive audio experience and HP’s exclusive native printing capability that would let you print directly from most applications. It comes pre-loaded with Kingsoft Office for editing office files.
There is a HD front-facing camera and a 2-megapixel rear camera. It comes with a micro SD card slot that would let you expand the memory up to 64GB. No word on RAM, internal memory and the battery capacity yet. This would compete with the Asus Transformer tablets and the Google Nexus 10.
The HP Slate Book x2 would be available in the U.S. this August starting at $479.99 (~Rs. 26,350). It is not clear whether HP would launch the tablet outside U.S. This is definitely a decent price for an Android tablet with a keyboard dock.
