The HP 7 VoiceTab is a fairly decent performer in daily usage. We didn't notice any freezes or stutters when using the device, though heavy games didn't work well.
The HP 7 VoiceTab scored 7fps in GFXBench and 3036 in the 3DMark Ice Storm test. We ran AnTuTu and Quadrant as well, in which the device scored 17, 768 and 6, 578 points respectively.
True to its name, the HP 7 VoiceTab handled voice calling well. Sound quality was really good and you don't need to worry about dropped connections either. It couldn't handle 1080p videos but the sound emanating from the dual speakers was really loud and didn't distort at maximum volume either. The bundled earphones are up to most tasks and there is no need to replace them. In our video loop battery test, the HP 7 VoiceTab lasted only 5 hours and 38 minutes, which is below par for a tablet, price notwithstanding.
HP seems to be focusing on the voice-calling tablet market with its VoiceTab line of products. We saw the launch of HP's previous range in this category early last year, and the hp 7 didn't receive a favourable opinion from us.
Moving forward, HP's newest voice-calling Android tablet, the hp 7 is a 7-inch tablet as its name suggests. You won't need to break a bank to purchase one since it costs less than Rs. 10, 000. Here's hoping that HP has learnt a thing or two from its previous mistakes.
