AWESOME machine ! Finally can put aside my iPad for leisure use and replace my notebook computer with a tablet with full Microsoft office capability. With Windows 8 Pro and hardware like the Samsung ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T to run it, it's time to move forward.
I've had it for a week and I'm pleased with the ease of use. I loaded a Novell network client and it works fine. Outlook is interfacing with our Novell Groupwise as well . I loaded iTunes and works well.
The wacom pen included is great ! Handwriting recognition is near perfect.
I did have a problem trying to load an older Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0. Also, it won't work with Cisco VPN client without a registry edit.
A sweet machine that I am looking forward to replacing my XP machine with. In the next few weeks I'll be loading Turbotax, Quicken, PaintShopPro, and some video editing programs... we'll see how that works out.
I also bought the keyboard dock, a wireless mouse, an ethernet to USB dongle, a USB DVD R/W, a terabyte external drive for data storage, a 32GB microSD card to have more data storage on the tablet, and a mini dvi to VGA cable.
Maker sure you total all the $$$ you'll want to spend, this is a pricy item.... but it's the first "new" pc I've bought in 10 years!
Good detail review is at [...]

I bought this machine for business purpose and have just started the return process. Context of use: need a tablet to carry on client sites that will run a proprietary application without glitches and allow for note taking/photo uploads as I go. Ultimately, three stars because it performs well but just comes up short on the price versus quality comparison. Read other reviews to balance what you see here if the context doesn't meet your needs because some have really loved this item. Here's a quick summary of the good and bad:
Pros:
1. Win 8 Pro - hard to find on these tablets without this kind of price tag and I really like the Win 8 experience and design. I disagree with other reviewers and believe it's fairly intuitive for those used to touch screens. There are lots of features to adjust too (swiping back to previous apps, closing from the top down, settings on each app when swiped from the right) but they are easy to learn.
2. Overall Specs - solid machine, ran smoothly with limited exception for load times. It's got the hardware to do the job (but so does the Surface pro at $400 LESS).
3. 5mp rear camera - one of the better cameras on the market if you need this, but still no flash and the image stabilization feature didn't seem to do much.
4. Writing: I really do prefer the writing experience and having an on-board storage option to the Surface Pro experience, but that's not a reason to spend $400 more when everything else feels flimsy.
Cons:
1. There are 4 versions of this tablet, so you've got to be careful to know which one you're buying. The A04 is the only one with Win 8 Pro and is actually slightly larger than the others.
2. Brightness adjustment: It changes regularly even if I'm just changing sitting position with this in my lap. I had the same problem with the 500t (which came out of the box with tons of issues -my review is up there, too). Not sure if it's sensor placement or technology related, but it really got annoying to have the screen adjusting all the time. Far as I can tell, this was a defect in both the Ativ 500t and 700t models.
3. Runs hot: This thing got really hot in my opinion. Fans blow out of the top and are easily audible from the moment I turned it on. Maybe this is normal, but when the screen got hot to the touch after just an hour or so of use I got concerned. Not sure how it will do when I spend 3 hours at a client site with this in my hands.
4. Build Quality: the casing is plastic and if you hold it level with one hand on the side you can literally see the casing give way on the back. Now... plastic is malleable and prone to give... but again, at $1400 I just expected a little more.
5. Size: This one is very much a personal issue so please consider that when rating feedback. Some people may like the overall size, but I think coming from an iPad I'm just more comfortable with the 10' screen range than this. It feels much longer and holding/using just isn't that comfortable. Since this is for business, I have to be considerate of how it will work in the field and not just on my desk.
6. Battery Life: In fairness, I might be spoiled here, but when I left it sitting on my desk at home for a day unplugged (without any use during the day and at least a half charge), I came home to find it almost out of juice. It just sat there. All day. When I got back, the fans were running. I know these units won't have the same life of a true tablet, but really? Without use? What happens when I USE the thing for 3-4 hours on site? Do I have to use my clients electricity to get the job done?
General Concerns - not product specific, but related:
1. Lack of accessories
2. Not available in any retail physical location for testing (I couldn't find a place that even had it in store, here or anywhere else).
3. One of four models with confusion about the specs on those models even from the manufacturer site. Seems like Samsung is pumping them out to be on this bandwagon, less concerned about the actual quality that getting a piece of the tablet PC pie.
4. Longevity. Having purchased the Ativ 500t and being really disappointed, I was a little concerned about this and felt backed into a corner by the lack of features and specs on other tablets. I'm still concerned about what happens two months down the road with this thing - will it be working? Will it be supported? Will I just be out $1400?
I'm going BACK to the Surface Pro for quality and design preferences. Hopefully, the next year will bring a lot of innovation and improvement to this market and, thus, cheaper and better options.

This is the second pad I have had. The first one is iPad 4. This one's operating system is Windows 8, and all its input and output hardwares are of the common. It can be used as a regular laptop PC with all Windows-compatible softwares.
Connecting it to its Keyboard Dock, it become an Laptop. You may do all the works you need as with a laptop.
I think it is much better and much more convenient than iPad.
