  • Bright and colorful display, Wide viewing angles, Good performance, Long battery life
  • Low screen resolution, Lackluster cameras, Lots of preinstalled software, Keyboard not included
  • Acer replaces the disappointing Iconia W3 with an 8-inch Windows slate with solid performance, a gorgeous if not full HD screen, and long battery life. It's a big improvement, though we could wish for better cameras and a standard keyboard. Read More…...

  • InPlane Switching (IPS) screen. MicroHDMI port. Includes Microsoft Office Home and Student. Almost 10 hours of battery life.
  • A bit pricier than rivals. No GPS. No 3G/4G/LTE. Lots of bloatware
  • The Acer Iconia W4-820-2466 is a bright, compact 8-inch Windows 8 slate tablet. With a full copy of Microsoft Office Home and Student and almost 10 hours of battery life, it's a viable alternative to carrying an ultraportable laptop to class or meetings....

  • Micro HDMI port, Good benchmark performance
  • Mediocre display, Thick and heavy compared to much of the competition, Comparatively low battery life
  • Acer's Iconia W4 is a big step up from its predecessor, but it doesn't stand out among the current crowd of 8-inch Windows tablets....

  • Acer's Iconia W4 has excellent battery life for an 8-inch Windows tablet; plenty of ports for a slate, including HDMI, SD card, and USB, as well as a decently large 64GB SSD
  • 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
  • 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, ...

  • Decent performance, Microsoft Office (Home & Student) included, Good battery life, Goodquality IPS screen, Supports USB storage
  • Ergonomics for business productivity could be better, Short on internal storage, Not suitable for demanding workloads
  • Good battery life should keep the Iconia W4 going through the working day, so long as you're not taxing it with over-strenuous workloads. With an external Bluetooth keyboard and mouse it could probably cope with more serious work than web browsing, email ...

  • The Acer Iconia W4 is flexible and comes with good battery life but if you're just looking for a basic tablet it's difficult to recommend the W4 over something like the Dell Venue 8 Pro. Where the W4 comes into its own though is where users are looking fo...

  • Much-improved display, Above-average battery life, Good performance for the money
  • Slightly bulky compared to other 8-inch Windows tablets, Subpar speakers
  • The Iconia W4 may not stand out in any one area, but it's a textbook example of how to do a small Windows tablet with a solid design, a pleasant display and long battery life....
