HP Slatebook x2 launched on HP web site with availability in August

HP has officially launched the HP Slatebook x2 on their web site for U.S. customers. The convertible tablet device is listed as being available in August 2013 with a starting price of $480. The Slatebook x2 is an Android tablet that comes with a detachable keyboard similar to the ASUS Transformer line of devices. The Slatebook x2 is also one of the first devices to hit the market with NVIDIA’s new Tegra 4 processor.

The keyboard will benefit buyers beyond making it easier to create content on a tablet device. It also adds an extra battery pack for extended life, a couple USB ports for peripherals to be added, and a standard SD card reader. The tablet portion itself has its own microSD card slot to go with the 10.1-inch full HD 1080p screen and Android 4.2.2 operating system.
