Banggood has the Dual OS version of the Chuwi Hi12 now listed, with a process time of 6-9 working days. So it looks as if the Chuwi Hi12 Dual Boot version is only a few weeks away from shipping out. Will the keyboard ship out before? (It still hasn’t even shipped!)
I’ve reviewed the Chuwi Hi12 Windows 10 only model and it’s one of the better tablets I’e seen this year so far.
Thanks to Przemek for pointing this one out.

Chuwi are also listing the Hi10 as Dual OS Coming soon:

Would be a nice one, i wish there would be a z8500/z8700 Model and a Transformer Style Keyboard available

Shame to have lost the 128GB micro SD card capability on the Hi12 dual boot iteration, but I guess we can still use OTG add ons, if needed. Anyway, this discount code provides a decent incentive at banggood.com: 60ac21

Hey @Chris check out this new “Blackbook” tablet
http://www.gearbest.com/tablet-pcs/pp_332587.html
– Fully Laminated display 10.1″
– Dual Band Wifi (n)
– Stylus support
– Atom Z8700
– USB Type-C Port
– USB 3.0
– 64GB & 128GB Storage
– Keyboard dock
It only misses 4G really to be the “complete package”
Looks quite amazing really, not sure about the price though. Would better at 350+ in my opinion, at most.

Are you sure about the stylus support? It’s described as a touchscreen pen which sounds like one of those terms that they use to be deceptive while appearing to be just a bad translation.
vgiozo
If you look at the pictures, it shows it as supporting drawing and writing…
…so it should support some kind of active stylus, even if it is not a wacom one.

You may as well get a surface 3 at that price, QC will be 100x better.
Chris G
Exactly, this Blackbook unknown brand is simply too expensive what it is. Better off getting the original Surface 3.
Piotr
looks nice but hugely overpriced, I would start to consider it for ~250$, for this money you can get dell venue 10 Pro 5000
Tobias Onk
is the old one also supporting dual boot. it is spezified with dual os, what this means?
Chris G
Must mean they will soon be shipping all of them as Dual boot units?

BoORD_L ·, you talk about new Hibook witch is 10,1 inch. Hi12, stylus or not, is 12 inch!
Tobias Onk
What do you think.
Cancel the old order from gearbest for 205 $ and buy this for 235$ ?
I do not need a stylus but android would be nice
BoORD_L
i can’t understand the name, It is just a 10′ tablet.
I hope they will not abandon the former hi12
BoORD_L
although bangood say it’s a 12 ‘ on Chuwi forum it is specified to be a 10 ‘ tablet with a resolution of 1920×1200 ( 16 : 9 ) and 6600 mah battery

You pointed out the hibook. This is the following device from the hi10.
But this thead us about the hi12
Canterbury
i think it supporting Android is a typo/mistake…. It appears to be the same device only with original packaging….??!!??
Andrew
Stylus would be nice i see bangood say it only supports 64gb card 128gb would have been better
foop
can you elaborate on what the stylus support situation is? Do all Chuwi Hi 12’s have stylus support? Or Does this dual-os version? Or will there be a specific “Chuwi Hi12 stylus” model released (that is, a variant with a digitizer that isn’t present in existing versions).
Chris G
I can confirm the current model doesn’t have stylus support, at least, I cannot see it in my device manager. I think the new Dual OS model is the one with stylus support. (The second release model) But Chuwi’s aren’t exactly super forthcoming with info on this.
