The editors didn't like
Reflections can get annoying

Some reliability issues with Wi-Fi
A bit pricier than rivals
No GPS

Lots of bloatware
The clunky plastic design does the W4 no favors
And it's thicker and heavier than many other Windows tablets. The screen resolution feels dated compared to a growing number of HD-or-better tablets
Abstract: The 8-inch screen delivers the same basic specs as the Toshiba Encore – standard TFT LCD and 1280×800-pixel resolution. Both also use the same quad-core Atom Z3740 processor. But while they deliver the same office-level performance, there was a significan...

The 8-inch Acer Iconia W4 has a few advantages that help it stand out from a crowd of similar devices, including great battery life and enough ports to support basic productivity. It's also much better -- and less expensive -- than last year's W3 model, ...

Much better screen than its predecessor, with great viewing angles; Charges from microUSB; Decent 6-8 hour battery life; Includes a microUSB to USB converter;
Display resolution could be better; Screens needs a better oleophobic coating, as it really picks up on finger oils; Plastic build; Still no keyboard dock in the package, though one is available as an accessory; Missing more modern wireless standards;
Acer didn’t wait for its W3 to get very old before it updated the tablet, but we’re glad it did. Barely six months since the first 8 inch Windows 8 tablet came out, we now have a model we’d be happy to take with us on the go, with Intel’s latest Atom ...
