Dell has updated the Venue 8 Pro tablet bringing its specs more than a notch up. Along with that, the new Venue 8 Pro 5000 Series comes with a price to match, at $449 it's twice as expensive as some versions of the predecessor.
On the hardware end, the new tablet features an 8-inch FullHD display, or rather WUXGA, as the 16:10 ratio results in 1,920 x 1,200 pixels.
The processor on board is the new Intel Atom x5-Z8500 at this point, but we may be seeing the Z8300 at a later stage. There's 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of built-in eMMC storage, no other options so far. There is a microSD slot for expansion, though, so storage shouldn't be an issue. Windows 10 Pro is standard equipment, but you could opt for Home, for $50 less.
There is a 5MP rear camera as well as a 2MP front facing unit. More importantly, however, there's Wi-Fi 802.11ac with 2x2 antennas, and USB 3.0 with Type-C connector. It's ready for cellular connectivity too, thanks to its microSIM slot, but we gather that will be optional as well. The Dell Active Pen is supported, but not part of the package - it typically goes for an additional $50, but Dell will take $5 off its price if you buy it with the tablet.
