Dell’s 4G Streak 7 Tablet

We recently took Dell’s Streak 7 tablet, a 4G tablet that made its debut at CES, for a bit of a test drive.

The Streak 7 is Dell’s successor to the Streak, an early Android tablet that — at 5 inches — was barely larger than a smartphone. It shipped with Android 1.6 and was slowly upgraded to a later version of the OS.

The Streak 7 is an upgraded experience with a 7-inch screen and Android 2.2 (Froyo) — still a far cry from the Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) tablets we saw elsewhere at CES, but a definite improvement over the last model.

The Streak 7 has a front-facing camera for video chats, a rear 5 MP camera with a flash for taking photos, built-in Wi-Fi and GPS capabilities and up to 32 GB of storage.

Like its predecessor, the Streak 7 will be available on T-Mobile; it will be T-Mobile’s first 4G tablet.

In the two demo videos below, we see the Streak 7 as a great device for connecting to all the other devices and media in your home — as a sort of remote control for your digital life, as well as a stand-alone device.

Take a look, and let us know what you think in the comments.
