Recently i got a chance to review a friend’s HP TX2Z tablet PC and i must say, i was impressed. In this short post, i will describe some key features of HP TX2Z tablet PC.
Basic features of HP TX2Z
- TouchScreen: HP TX2Z is a mutitouch, fully convertible tablet PC with a 12 inch screen display. With Multitouch, i mean that you can use more than one finger (e.g., index and thumb) at the same time. Something which most of the tablet PC’s lack.
- Memory: HP TX2z comes with 3GB of RAM by default, however, you have the option of upgrading upto 8GB.
- Hard Disk: HP TX2z comes with a 250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive.
- DVD Burner: As expected, HP TX2Z does come with a DVD Burner.
- Operating System: HP TX2z comes with a pre-configured Windows Vista operating system.
- Processor: Interestingly, HP TX2z runs on a AMD Turion Dual Core processor.
- Does it have a Stylus? Yes. HP Tx2z also comes with a very fine stylus
Are there any other interesting points worth knowing other than the one’s listed above?
Yes. These are the points i found most interesting while working on and reviewing the HPTX2Z.
- Embedded Altec Lansing Speakers for stereo sound.
- Design Element of HP TX2Z is amazing. As you see and work on it, you just fall in love with this machine.
- Strong Hardware. HP is known to produce good hardware and it seems to have delivered that into the TX2Z as well.
Are there any points you were disappointed with?
- Windows Vista: I wish they had chosen a custom unix/linux installation instead of Windows Vista as the pre-configured operating system.
- Battery Life: I wish this could have been better.
- Price: HP TX2Z comes at a entry price of close to 1150$ ( approximately, 50000 Indian Rupee). This sounds like too much for an entry level tablet PC.
