Reply To: X98 plus for 159$ !!!

Yes Gal, my X98 Plus arrived Friday 5th Feb and was ordered on the 25th Jan (i think), not bad. Well packaged using the same sort tough air tube filled packaging that laser ink cartridges come in, so the box was in mint condition. Android is fine once unnecessary chinese apps are removed. The Teclast OTA app downloaded and installed an update. Play store works and all my main apps are now installed but sometimes it crashes when doing a search. The Teclast android skin is not to my taste but does the job for the moment. As for Windows 10 it’s a bit of a nightmare. Grinds away for hours trying to update. The main Win 10 update (1511) eventually infomed me that it could not install because there wasn’t 16GB of spare disk space! Removed all the stuff i’d spent ages installing earlier and tried again with my system showing 17.3GB free. After several hours more grinding away i left it overnight and this morning it had abandoned the update and reinstalled the ‘old’ version. The 1511 update is now no longer showing as available so i guess i’m going to have google for a solution.

Very good build quality (for the money) and the screeen looks great but the dual boot operating systems are in an unfinished state and lack polish. A combination of lack of QC from Teclast and Win 10 being unsuited to tablets IMO. Speed wise i have not had a chance to properly test it yet but it feels reasonably responsive with further improvements to come. With some tweaking it’ll settle down to become the tablet i wanted but it is definitely not like that straight out of the box. Two days in and i still haven’t used it for entertainment or meaningful work yet.

I’ll try the Teclast chinese forum.  Tried the Chuwi forums previously but even when translated i couldn’t understand what on earth people were babbling on about.
