Teclast X98 Plus Dual Boot Released
According to a recent Weibo from Teclast, the X98 Plus Dual OS version is now out. I reviewed the Windows 10 only version and it’s not a bad 9.7″ Retina tablet if a tad underpowered at gaming Vs other Z8300’s (It felt underclocked the GPU). But it was able to get over 8 hours of battery life due to this. Banggood has it for $197 with the X98 Plus Windows 10 version coupon ee75d0,...[Read More]

Chuwi Hi10 and Onda oBook Reviews Online
My review of the Hi10 is finally done, in between order issues, getting it late from sellers and flying back to New Zealand it took me a while longer to review this one. I did wait for the second batch that had Windows 10 64bit too. So this was another reason for the delay. But my time with the Hi10 has been good, and I’m glad to say it’s a worthy upgrade over the popular Vi10 despite ...[Read More]

Chuwi Hi12 Stylus, Black (Basic) Version and Release Date
Chuwi’s new 2160 x 1440 Surface Pro 3 screen tablet the Hi12 is also coming in dark grey I found looking online today (Nice move Chuwi) I was a bit disappointed in the earlier press images of the Hi12 in white & gold.
