Hi, 1. The Chuwi as you now has glass on both sides. So the Pipo W3F might be a better choice. The keyboards on both tend to scratch up the screen protectors, so might pay to place a cloth between the keyboard and screen when moving about. 2. On my Chuwi when I restored Windows, it had an English option on reboot. The image did have English in my case. Android you can run the factory reset and it has English. I think you’ll be safe, if not you can install English on these ones. The Onda’s and some other ones had issues. Not this Chuwi in my experience. 3. Got mine from Gear Best, its activated with Windows 8.1 Bing and I now run Windows 10 on it. (Insider Win 10 – > Now to full Windows 10 and activated.) 4. People have tried in our root thread for the Chuwi Vi10, none have had any luck. The DPI isn’t the best for the screen. I removed Android on mine so I can’t test, sorry! Hope this helps.

 

If only i knew the screen is easy to scratched by the keyboard. My screen protector is heavily scratched and looks very ugly. I usually put my Vi10 in a messenger bag. The worst part is near the keyboard spring connector, middle of screen. Now i but some foam tape in the elevated part of keyboard such as top lid near the spring pin and beside the touchpad. Luckily i have spare protector included from seller.

 

Slightly off topic, have you tried Vi10 64GB version, Chris? I wonder if the eMMC performance is better or at least, same with 32GB version.

I am running out of space even with Android uninstalled.
