Hi all,
I’ve been subscribed to TechTablets on Youtube and I’ve been hoping to see my ideal tablet, but no such luck yet. I’ve also asked on reddit but no joy.
Here’s what I’m looking for:Tablet size (10-13″)
Stylus Support
Linux Compatible
Backlit keyboard
prefer 8gb ram
user upgradable SSD
<$400 CAD
Any ideas?
August 8, 2019 at 11:25 am #181487He-lo , i am also looking for an 2X1 360° laptop, i know already about the classic one from 2017/2018 some of them are cheap but there is always something poor, like battery, or ram or other things, is there in 2019 a cheap real good one to suggest?
August 23, 2019 at 11:31 am #181549I have ordered the BMAX Y11, recently announced.
It is similar to the Teclast F5 but with 8 GB DDR4 RAM.

I have the BMAX Y11. It’s configuration is similar to Teclast F5, but not identical. BMAX Y11 has the SSD Foresee on 256Gb(but you can upgrade it easily if you need) and 8Gb RAM. Very nice device. And looks great with the small and accurate logo(in comparison with Teclast F5). Also it works with Linux. But it is without the ‘Backlit keyboard’, the keyboard is nice but without backlit. I never use the backlit keyboard and apologize that it is not so desired feature.

September 23, 2019 at 5:34 pm #181709How did you start a topic?
if keeps saying “error” topic cant be created at this time without as much as an explanation for why, and is it problems at my end, or ??.
Tried the last few days, to start a topic about a 2-1 I purchased, but nahh not doable.
Feel stupid that I port people over to this site. and I’m starting to see where the lack of activity comes from.
September 25, 2019 at 2:08 pm #181740I think, that yes. But I saw only the reviews and promo materials about it.

Happy owner of Chuwi Hi9 Air and BMAX Y11.September 25, 2019 at 9:58 pm #181741How is the BMAX 11? I’m thinking to get the BMAX 13.3 for my self, backlit 🙂 and it still should accept USB-C charging, to me the backlit of the is the key thing, I work a lot at night and really need to see the keys :), any way how is the BMAX 11 form build quality and over all does it look it will be reliable?

also, interested if touchpad and other things working with the Bmax 13 with Linux OS.
January 18, 2020 at 2:09 am #182513Waiting to see if anyone has battery life reports and linux touch/pen support reports but the newer version of the Y11 is supposed to have a better CPU as well. Might be what I end up with.

January 30, 2020 at 6:31 pm #182607I’ve noticed the Chuwi Hi10 X is now on the market and it looks like it hits all my points. I’m watching, eagerly, for someone to test Linux on it, but with the price and features, it looks like everything I was looking for. If I can scrounge the cash, I think I’ll be ordering it.

July 21, 2020 at 11:31 pm #183656on aliexpress https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/4000674618825.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27426c37cInp8M I see this note for the Y11 accelerometer (automatic screen orientation) to work on ubuntu linux :
Après quelques mois d’utilisation je suis très satisfait de ce portable. Sa taille et son poids le rendent vraiment facile à transporter.
J’ai installé Ubuntu et ça fonctionne comme un charme.
Le seul problème que j’ai rencontré était avec l’orientation de l’écran. L’accéléromètre n’est pas installé comme prévu par Linux donc besoin d’ajouter une règle dans/etc/udev/hwdb.d/pour la corriger.
Pour ceux qui sont entrés, vous devez créer le fichier suivant en tant que root /etc/udev/hwdb.d/61-sensor-local.hwdb

La matrice corrige l’axe x et y qui sont échangés. Et maintenant l’écran a la bonne orientation et il suit l’orientation de votre ordinateur. A mon avis le Y11 est vraiment une bonne affaire. -
