The new Cherry Trail 8″ X80 Plus is now out as a dual boot from Teclast. Like most new release Atom’s it came out first with Windows 10 Home only. I’ve had some time on with the Windows model and it’s not a bad tablet considering the low price point.
Its got a plastic build and the screen has a large gap 2-3mm gap between the touch glass and IPS panel which is a little large. But it does use a brand name eMMC with decent speeds and overall one of the better 8 inch Cherry Trail tablets I’ve looked at. The Chuwi Vi8 Plus seems to be the best one, but it does have USB 2.0 type C which requires an adapter and no dual boot yet.
Banggood has the best deal on it, $14 dollars off with coupon 9efc13 here: http://www.banggood.com/Teclast-X80-Plus-32GB-Intel-Z8300-Quad-Core-1_84GHz-8-Inch-Dual-OS-Tablet-p-1016463.html which brings the price to only $87.99 not bad.
Here are some hands-on videos of the Windows version in action:

X80Plus, Cube iwork8 or Chuwi HI8 (the last year version) ?
Another thing, have tried to read manga (japanese comics) in 8″ tablets ?

Brightness is good, and the battery life around 4 hours.

Seems like a typo there, just to warn you.
