Description
Finally we're seeing some more tablets in the market. This one features Windows 7, Intel Atom, and a multi-touch screen!
The Linus Tech Tips team opens a CTL 2go PAD SL10 10 inch tablet PC and begins with a straightforward unboxing. The host highlights key hardware specs including an Intel Atom N450 processor, 1.66 GHz, a 10 inch LED backlit multitouch display, Windows 7, 2 GB of RAM, and a 250 GB hard drive. He notes the presence of a USB to VGA adapter, a built in e-reader capability, and the lack of a traditional app store due to Windows 7 offering access to the full catalog of Windows applications. The unboxing sequence also covers the included accessories such as driver discs, registration information, a power adapter, and the battery already installed. Throughout, he assesses the build quality, the case materials, and the overall design, comparing the device’s form to other gadgets and commenting on potential improvements like upgrading to an SSD. The first boot demonstrates basic usability, including the multitouch capability and demo of the operating system setup, with observations on screen brightness, viewing angles, and the device’s glossy display characteristics under indoor lighting. As the video progresses, the host performs a quick hardware exploration, noting ports on the sides, including LAN, USB, audio jacks, and the VGA adapter, and comments on upgrade possibilities such as replacing the internal hard drive with an SSD. He tests the multitouch by navigating photos and text, and demonstrates a few basic interactions like zooming and panning within Windows 7 sample images. A practical size comparison against an iPhone 4 is shown to provide scale, and remarks are made about the tablet’s portability, weight, and thickness. The host wraps by reflecting on the device as a compact Windows 7 tablet with potential for enthusiast upgrades, and he encourages viewers to subscribe for more Linus Tech Tips insights while promising to showcase more on multitouch capabilities in future coverage.
