The X98 Pro is now out in China, shipping via Tmall.com. But this is the...[Read More]
My Cube i10 review is now up, it could quite possibly be the last Bay Trail tablet I review as the next gen Cherry Trail Atom era begins. Speaking of which, next up for review is the X5 Z8500 powered Teclast X98 Pro and the Core M 5Y10 Onda V919 3G. I hope to have both of them next week to start the video and review process.

Teclast has just officially announced the Teclast X98 Pro, as expect.It’s an Atom X5 Z8500 Cherry Trail powered X98 Air 3G / Air II successor. With 4GB of Ram and an eMMC 5.0 spec flash drive.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNY9V5YCdlM This Onda v919 3G Core M unboxing video popped up on the internet, good spotting Mike Cane X Blog. It ships now with Windows 10 by the look of it.

I have mine on preorder via Ali Express, which I ...[Read More]
