The Dell Venue 8 7000 is remarkably thin and lightweight with a comfortable feel. The Intel RealSense depth-sensing camera is an innovative feature and the preloaded Dell Gallery efficiently works as a central hub for photos. Its storage capacity expands
There's a learning curve to using the depth-sensing camera and the photo-editing software. The tablet can get hot during long periods of use
With its powerful 3D camera and strong image editing features the Dell Venue 8 7000 makes the strongest case yet for tablet photography....

Abstract: Dell's incredibly thin Venue 8 is comfortable to hold. Source: Drew Evans/The Wall Street JournalThere was a time, not too long ago, when taking photos with a tablet was as uncool as wearing a fanny pack. “Enjoying the view?” I'd joke when I saw tourists ...
As svelte as it gets, RealSense is niche, but great, Top class 2560 x 1600 resolution
Refocus effect is dramatic, Software isn't perfect, Camera isn't wellplaced
My early impression of the Dell Venue 8 7000 series is a positive one. Trading the bloated Windows OS for a responsive Android 4.4 seems like a great choice that will keep the tablet moving fast long after it leaves the box. The refocus-after-the-fact ca...

Camera itself is poor, Less than stellar viewing angles.
On the whole, then, it is safe to say we were amazed by the Dell Venue 8 7840.The tablet's design is phenomenal, proving incredibly thin yet strong and sturdy. The aluminium construction looks and feels premium. Yes, the front camera is at the bottom of t...

Unbelievably thin and light, Gorgeous screen, Inpicture measurement tools
Uneven bezels make landscape typing awkward, No Office support
The Venue 8 7840 is a killer tablet, with a great screen and stunning build quality. It's let down a little by awkward bezels and a lack of Microsoft Office, but other than that, it's a knockout....
