As svelte as it gets
RealSense is niche
But great
Top class 2560 x 1600 resolution

And that slimness is almost beyond belief. It's not just the body the 2560 x 1600 OLED screen is fantastic too

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

The rear Intel RealSense Depth camera seems like a waste of resources
The Dell Venue 8 7000 series is hands down the sexiest tablet Dell's ever made. It has top-notch specs, a chic metal build and a simply remarkable display that pops with clarity and vibrancy. At $399 like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and iPad mini with Re...
