Teclast X98 Plus Benchmarks, Speed, Game Test and Thermals
Today I uploaded the below video. Just covering the speed a little of the X98 Plus, with some benchmarks, battery life and a look at Asphalt 8 Airbourne. And the thermals. So far the good: Battery life, screen, and thermals. The performance is unimpressive, it almost feels as if Teclast’s engineers have limited the turbo duration to keep the temps down. I never expected much out of the lowes...[Read More]
Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 Teased. Official Announcement 24th
Xiaomi has finally teased an image (above) of a tablet with a rear facing camera that looks similar to the Mi Pad but in metal. They have a big announcement on the 24th with a new mobile with a fingerprint sensor as well as “other announcements” which is where the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 fits in.

DHL finally came through today, their customs dept stopped messing about with my X98 Plus and delivered it. Heres the unboxing and hands-on video.

Teclast X98 Pro Mod: Add A Full Sized USB Port
Ever wanted a full sized USB 2.0 port on your X98 Pro? I know I have, well forum member Idris has done just that. There is a spare USB header on the motherboard, which with a bit of soldering skill means you can wire up a USB pen drive internally or like what Idris has done add a female USB 2.0 connector. It also powers an external hard drive, so not bad. Handy for those that really must have a fu...[Read More]
Surface Pro 4 Hands On and Teclast X98 Plus DHL Delay
I would have had my Teclast X98 Air Plus today to start my review process. But DHL Spain is at it again, my shipment is on hold. Happens so often, takes 2 days to go from China, Germany and onto Spain. To then sit with DHL Spain for a week. I hope to at least have the X98 Plus this week now, but they still haven’t even called me back to at least find out what the issue is. I also have a Cube...[Read More]
Teclast X98 Air III Review (Video)
I’ve just finished up reviewing my Teclast X98 Air III, it Teclast’s budget Retina quad-core tablet. This model is the single OS Android 5.0 32GB version. It’s a mere $125 from Banggood.com with their coupon c930c6, so dirt cheap. Since it’s a Bay Trail Z3735F, its a step down from the Z3736F in the X98 Air 3G & Air II in terms of performance. Here’s is my full vi...[Read More]

Teclast Korea seems to have their own improved X98 Pro+ version. Now I don’t read Korean, but user YouJoon Park does and has pointed out it looks to have some unique features over the X98 Pro.

So Teclast is addressi...[Read More]
