Searching the internet today, I found BetaNews has a hands-on article on the Chuwi Hi12, what’s interesting is they have the keyboard. Something that seems only some websites are lucky enough to get sent to them. Note that the touchpad is now grey in color and not white! But still the keys are still white, grey or black would be so much nicer looking. But still no word on when exactly this k...[Read More]
Those following my Cube i9 posts and YouTube videos would have seen that I bricked the tablet. But now I ‘m back up and running, more about that here and the Cube i9 bios recovery flash method write up is here. Just before I bricked it, I did a cheap and relatively easy heat sink mod. It’s very basic, but has a huge impact on overall thermals. Why Cube or any of the Chinese manufacture...[Read More]
Banggood is now shipping the dual boot version of the Chuwi Hi12, mine just shipped and I received an email confirmation today with tracking details. So I’ll have it in hopefully 2 weeks to review the Android Rom and performance of the Hi12. You can read my Windows Chuwi Hi12 Review here. No idea if this model will have stylus support, but I’m crossing my fingers it does. Unless there ...[Read More]
The wait is finally over after an Aliexpress seller blunder that resulted in a 30+ day transit wait for my Cube i9. It’s the new Cube flagship, replacing the popular Cube i7 Stylus with a new Intel Core M3-6Y30 SoC and larger kickstand design. Here’s the unboxing video and hands-on. This tablet will be in the spotlight for a while and get some extra attention from me as it interests me...[Read More]
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 fa...[Read More]
Edit: The sale ends today, so last chance to save with Intel and PayPal’s discounts. Intel is really pushing the 2 in 1 tablet, not only do they have Jim parsons fronting a series of new adverts. But now even sponsoring the coupon discounts in this GearBest 2 in 1 sale. On from tonight until the 25th. They have some really good deals, the Chuwi Hi12 for $209, the lowest price I’ve seen...[Read More]
Today Chuwi released a teaser video on their YouTube channel which shows off what a lot of you have been waiting for. Dual Boot support and pressure-sensitive stylus support. Chuwi went all quite on us about a stylus version, but finally, we get to see it in action in this cheezy promo video so it’s very real. The stylus looks to be using an active stylus tech, similar to the active stylus u...[Read More]
Online retailer Banggood has a 20% off clearance sale now on, with some of the best deals on tablets. Not every model is listed, but some of the best ones are the Core M-powered Cube i7 Stylus, which ends up to be only $285 if you use the coupon tabcle in the checkout area. This must be Cube lowering prices and clearing stock of this model for the new Cube i9. And the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 Retina tablet...[Read More]
Onda today has announced the oBook10 Pro, a 10.1 inch two in one similar to the Chuwi HiBook or Cube iwork10 Ultimate. But unlike the oBook10, this new oBook10 Pro comes with an Atom X7 Z8700, 4GB of DDR3 dual chanel RAM and an upgraded screen of 1920 x 1200. It’s only the second tablet from China to be powered by the X7 , the first was the Teclast X16 Power. Hopefully it’s priced unde...[Read More]
As well as the EZPad 3 Mini, this is the other new tablet from Jumper. And this one looks interesting. It has the look of a larger Surface 3, kickstand and all. But instead of an Atom X7 Z8700, this as the X5 Z8300 and 4GB of RAM. The body is made out of aluminium and it even has a clip in magnetic type style keyboard like the Surface 3 type cover. You get an 11.6 inch 1080p screen, Three full siz...[Read More]
Searching new arrivals on GearBest, I came across this. The Jumper Ezpad Mini 3. Jumper is brand I haven’t covered here on TechTablets, but they are a well known brand in China apparently. And this new up and coming 8-inch tablet does look interesting. Not because it’s another Atom X5 Z8300, No. But unlike all the other 8 inch tablets reviewed here this one has a full sized USB 3.0 por...[Read More]
Update: Banggood has slashed the price again to just $229 with coupon 01d22c Thanks to Mahadi for pointing this out. Banggood has a coupon just added for the Chuwi Hi12, bringing the price down to $229 from $279. For some reason prices went up on this one just after it released. But good to see they have now dropped again. If you’re new to the Chuwi Hi12, it’s a large 12″ tablet ...[Read More]
