I’m in a similar boat. I’ve got an i5 13″ laptop for demanding stuff, but want a 10 incher for casual use, mostly browsing the web and trying Android (I’ve got a Windows Phone). Initially I was looking at the Surface 3, but it’s getting on a bit & and is a lot more money. So I’m looking as well at the Chuwi Hi10 & Teclast Plus, they’re much the same price and spec. Chuwi has USB3 & slightly more performant whereas the Teclast is a bit more “premium” build and design. Performance doesn’t seem to be that different & as I say I’ve got my laptop for more demanding stuff, so the premium build of the Teclast is edging me towards it right now.
I wonder if there’s anything new on the horizon (MWC this week) or if there’s anything else to consider that would give one of these the edge over the other? Teclast looks to be opening up in Europe (I’m in the UK) so I’m tempted to wait and see what happens, though I’d rather get something sooner than later.
Chris, do you think the compromises these Chinese tabs make in comparison to the S3 are worth the savings? Part of me still thinks I should go for the Surface 3 for build quality, reliability, support, better sound, etc & I can always scour eBay hoping to pay £160 vs the £160 of the Teclast/Chuwi.
Thanks (and thanks for this great site).
