HP has officially pulled the curtain off a brand-new Android-only laptop. The 14-inch, Tegra-driven Android laptop, dubbed the HP SlateBook 14, will be available on August 6 for a mere $399.
Approximately 16 millimeters thick and weighing just around 3.75 pounds. It ships with 64 gigabytes of onboard storage and comes with a microSIM card slot for those looking to add a little more. Two gigabytes of memory will join an Nvidia Tegra 4 processor — the highlight of the laptop's guts — to allow it to display 4K video should one desire (though the screen itself is a mere 1928-by-1080-pixel resolution). Total battery life is estimated to be around 9.25 hours or so.
Connection-wise, the laptop will come with two USB ports (we're not quite sure yet if that's USB 2.0 or USB 3.0) in addition to a single HDMI port.
Android laptops have been talked about for some time but this is the first I've seen actually announced with a firm price.
