HP Pavilion Tablet PC TX1016AU

Extra than the ordinary is what probably applies to all aspects of this tablet PC- features, performance and of course, even the price. Are you extra ordinary to buy it?

Powerful, Good Config, Good Finish, Good Build, VISTA Home Premium.

Uncomfortable Keypad, Screen, Weight, Expensive.

The TX1016 is an ultra portable laptop. It can also be used as a tablet PC, the convertible kind of tablet PC. Refer to this link for a brief on Tablet PCs. Its small size and neat design make it easy to use, both as a laptop as well as a tablet PC.

The TX1016AU has the same look and feel like the V3228AU we reviewed earlier. It has the very same glossy black finish on the cover with a dissolving design of lines in it.


Nitty-Gritty
On the right corner of the cover there are audio playback controls: 4 buttons Stop, Next track, Play/Pause, and Previous track. The front panel has the Power On/Off/Standby slider to the left side.


Pushing the slider right and holding it there for a couple of seconds powers On/Off the laptop. Just pushing it right and releasing it puts the system in Standby mode. Beside the slider is an LED which denotes the laptop being On/Off or in standby mode. In the center of the front panel are the audio jacks and the IR, a stereo audio headphone jack with SPDIF, an additional stereo headphone jack, and a Line-In/Microphone jack. On the right side of the front panel is the Wireless On/Off switch.


The left of the laptop is mainly occupied with the placement of the Lightscribe Dual Layer DVD RW. You can slide the drive out by unlocking a switch under the laptop. This way you can add an extra HDD or switch to a better burner. It is also very convenient to replace a faulty DVD-RW. Beside the DVD-RW is a 5-in-1 card reader. Below the card reader there is a 34-pin ExpressCard slot. The AC Adaptor or power point is placed at the far end on the left.

On the right side of the laptop are the external connectors. A USB port is placed closest to accessibility and next to it is the Ethernet LAN port. In the center on the right side is the HP proprietary Expansion Port 3. Further, there is the VGA port and lastly the S-Video TV-Out port.

The rear of the laptop is where the few remaining ports are placed. All these ports are easily accessible by the left hand. There are 2 USB ports placed one over the other and beside it is the Modem port. The 2 USB ports make for comfortable accessibility when the laptop is being used as a tablet PC.

by Hardik, ahmedabad, on Oct 24, 2007 01:26 PM, Report abuse   Reply

TX1301AU is good but its battery SUCKS. It comes with 4-cell battery which lasts only 1 hr 30 min on full charge and on low power consumption setting. So, consider 6-cell battery while buying this. Also there is no support provided by HP on its accessories as of yet.

its battery is a nuisance. it get too much hot totally unbearable to put it on your lap. you have to use it more or less like a desktop.

I recently purchased this Convertablet (which I like to call it) fully customized off the HP Website. Suffice to say it offers a hell of a bang for the buck. But it really shouldn't be viewed as a TABLET PC but more like an Ultraportable with Tablet capabilities. Best of both worlds. I'm very satisfied. Comparable to a Thinkpad T60 Widescreen Tablet but for 800-900$ less.
