Performance and Software
Powering the TouchPad was the Qualcomm APQ8060 Snapdragon S3 chipset, featuring a dual-core 1.2 GHz Scorpion processor and an Adreno 220 GPU. At the time, this hardware provided a reasonable level of performance for multitasking and basic applications. However, more intensive tasks would slow down the tablet, a common issue for many devices in this era. What truly set the TouchPad apart was its operating system, HP webOS 3.0. Known for its card-based multitasking and intuitive gesture controls, webOS offered a user-friendly interface but suffered from a limited app ecosystem, which hampered its overall appeal.
