The editors didn't like
Thick and bulky design
Questionable build quality
Keyboard is cramped
The Slider is bulky and heavy for a tablet and can't be detached from the keyboard plate. Also
The typing environment feels cramped and the curved design on the keyboard plate blocks the spacebar. No LED flash on the camera means no nighttime picture tak
Physical keyboard adds weight to the tablet
Still no SIM slot

Abstract: Many people who would like a tablet shy away from the whole concept due to the lack of a physical keyboard and the main argument against tablets is that you need a keyboard for any serious work. Don't get me started that tablet with a keyboard...

High weight, Unusual keyboard

No—definitely not at this price. Its convenient to have the tablet and keyboard in one piece, but the Eee Pad Transformer just has a much better keyboard than the Slider, and roughly twice the battery life (when the keyboard is connected). Plus, the Eee...
The Eee Pad Slider is pretty much on the money for what it is – a 32GB Transformer (with keyboard attachment) costs around £430, so £450 for a sleeker, more complex alternative is reasonable. Remember that the Transformer's base unit has a huge battery in...
Abstract: ASUS hit a bit of a home run earlier this year with the Eee Pad Transformer, a relatively typical Android Honeycomb tablet with an excellent detachable keyboard dock. But what if you take the keyboard and it to the Transformer? That's basically what y...
On paper, the ASUS Eee Pad Slider makes sense. All the instant-on flexibility of a tablet, with the convenience of a keyboard. Problem is, the biggest competition comes from under ASUS’ own roof, in the shape of the Eee Pad Transformer. That has a bet...
Is the ASUS Eee Pad Slider the best tablet on the market? Probably not - "best" is an arbitrary term, and besides, the iPad 2's app catalogue is far more expansive (come at me, fanboys). However, it may well be my favorite Honeycomb tablet (to be fair,...
For the users who are happy living in the consumption-only world of today's tablets, the Eee Pad Slider is not for you. It's bulkier than the Galaxy Tab and has significantly worse battery life than the iPad 2. If what you're looking for is another tablet...
