Hands on: 20-inch 4K Windows Tablet review

Hands on: 20-inch 4K Windows Tablet review

Panasonic introduced a uniquely massive tablet in its CES keynote on Tuesday, and TechRadar later got a chance to check out the prototype device in person on the convention floor.

It's a thing of beauty, though it's certainly not for everyone.

The tablet's display is 20 inches across with an Ultra HD 4K resolution of 3840 x 2560 and 230 ppi, which makes even the most minute details come out crisp and clear. To top it off, it runs a full version of Windows 8 Pro, though the Windows desktop (and several other functions) were not accessible on the prototype models at CES.

But even the most tech-obsessed consumer is going to struggle to come up with justifications for owning one, a fact that Panasonic seems well aware of.
