Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101

 

Slide on over as we take a look at the only Android Honeycomb tablet with a slide-out Qwerty keyboard.

Good keyboard ; Great screen ; Smooth operation

Heavy ; Chunky ; Slightly late to market

The Asus Eee Pad Slider's keyboard sets it apart from the handful of Android Honeycomb tablets that can only clearly be separated by a few minor aesthetic differences and connectivity tweaks. It's one of the most interesting Android tablets of the year...

Asus Eee Pad Slider

 

It's not much of an exaggeration to say that the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is one of our favourite Android tablets of all time. In fact, it's pretty reasonable to argue that the Transformer is the best Android tablet on the market. There's almost...

Lovely screen, a decent PC replacement, USB port, good battery life

Almost the same cost as a laptop, weight and size, lack of Honeycomb apps

There’s almost nothing wrong with the Asus Eee Pad Slider.

There is much debate over whether you want a tablet, a netbook, a laptop, or maybe even a tablet with a keyboard, and we can assume that Asus have been

Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101 review

 

The Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101 tablet stands out in a crowded field, thanks to its innovative slide-out keyboard UPDATED 16 JAN 2012

The Asus Slider SL101 is a very likable Android Honeycomb tablet that deftly manages to be both tablet and proper laptop without compromising excessively in the process. The 17mm bulk is easily forgivable given the advantages a hardware keyboard...

Asus has produced a clever little tablet here. The specifications and software extras impress, and the idea of incorporating a keyboard does too, but we’re not totally sold on the overall implementation. The keyboard itself leaves a little to be...

Review: Asus Eee Pad Slider

 

The Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101 is the second of Asus' ground-breaking netbook/tablet hybrid to hit the UK, the first being the superb Transformer. The Slider , above, initially launched with version 3.1 of Android in mid-August, but was updated with a...

Asus Eee Pad Slider review -

 

Inputting and editing text is simply brilliant, screen is sharp and colourful, seemless transition between work and play

Expensive at £450, touch-screen can be temperamental, heavier and thicker than other 10-inch tablets

Asus Eee Pad Slider SL101

 

Review I first laid hands on the Asus Eee Pad Slider back in March and now, after eight long months, it has finally made it onto the shelves of Blighty's gadget wallahs. Has it been worth the wait though?

Though thicker and heavier than the fondleslab-norm the Slider makes a lot of sense if you intend to do any serious typing or are always looking for a way to prop your tablet up while watching a video, making a Skype video call or reading a book. It’s...

Asus Eee Pad Slider Review by 3G.co.uk

 

The Asus EEE Slider is a super tablet that combines netbook functionality and a fantastic keyboard with the fun of a touch display

Sharp, colour-rich display; inputting and editing text works wonderfully; great combination of work and play

Pricey; touch display can be unreliable; heavier and thicker than its rivals

At the moment, while touchscreens seem to be the way of the future, many users just aren’t ready to give up their keyboards as yet, which is why this ‘best of both worlds’ option from Asus seems like such a winner.
