New tablet, 8.9" 4:3 preffered

[Evan]

There’s the Pipo W6S, which is 8.9″ but 16:10 (1920×1200). It does have 64GB flash, which seems to be almost essential for a dual-boot tablet (it’s possible on 32GB, but neither OS has a whole lot of spare space). Hard to find reviews of it, unfortunately.

Pipo W6s and Onda w891w seems pretty similar in specs, and in price.

Is there any general rule of thumb as two whom of Pipo and Onda that is the smartest manufacturer to chose?

 

I might get a 4:3 8″ inch tablet instead of the 8.9″ 16:10, as the aspect ratio matters quite a bit for me, after a lot of 16:9 and 16:10 devices I want a 4:3 device 🙂

Input about which 4:3 8″-8.9″ is greatly appreciated too 🙂

@mathiasdk You only have the 4:3 Teclast X89 then and it has an very sharp retina 300+ ppi screen.

As I am mostly going to use Android, would you recommend me getting the Asus Zenpad S. 8.0 instead?

• I can see some people advising against getting a 32GB dual boot machine, as there is hardly any room available to each partition?

Yes I advise not to get dual boot 32GB ones and you don’t really have enough room, 64GB models are much better and the price difference isn’t much.

Also look at the Samsung Tab S2 8.0 inch, very thin and a nice SAMOLED 4:3 screen, not as bloated as the Asus. Might be jsut what you’re after, it’s chipset is fast too.
