HP Slate 7 VoiceTab Ultra Release In More Markets

The HP Slate 7 VoiceTab Ultra is one of HP’s more interesting tablets, and these days it’s rolling out in markets worldwide.

What makes the HP Slate 7 VoiceTab Ultra interesting is the combination of the voice calling abilities and the very decent hardware specs. You know, like a 13MP camera and Full HD resolutions display.

OK, so in short the main specs for the HP Slate 7 VoiceTab Ultra 3900-series are Android 4.2 (at shipping anyway), a 7-inch display with Full HD 1920 x 1200 resolution, a 1.6 GHz quad-core HiSilicon Balong V9R1 processor, 2GB DDR3 RAM, a 5MP front camera, a 13MP rear camera from Sony, and a weight of 239 gram, but for some obscure reason a short 6 hour battery life. To put that into perspective, that’s just half the battery life of the new Fire HDX 8.9.

If this tablet had been available in the US right now, it would have cost something like $399. In Europe it is now taking orders for €399. But currently it’s not available in the US.

If the high specs sounds familiar but you just can’t put your finger on it, then you would be right, since this tablet is essentially the same tablet as the Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0, a tablet that is available in the US, and for a little less than $399 too.

HP got into an agreement with Huawei earlier this year which enabled HP to put their HP brand on Huawei tablets, and this tablet is just one of many HP tablets that are all Huawei underneath.
