I’ve just bought a second hand Teclast F5 from eBay for £200. This was the second attempt at buying an F5 after an earlier order with Gearbest went wrong and it never arrived and I only got part of my money back.
I wanted an F5 out of curiosity as I don’t strictly need it, but fancied having one to play with and upgrade or experiment with. Computing for computing sake…
The F5 arrived, fully boxed and complete, good condition. Worked perfectly, but the charger was not a UK one and would barely stay in the flimsy adapter.
Battery life is terrible, as expected, but I already expected that. Performance is fine for my use. I love the size, its tiny.
My plan was to spend (….waste) some money on some accessories to improve usage
- Good quality UK USB-C PD power supply / charger
- Good quality USB-C PD cable
- High capacity USB-C PD powerbank
- Bluetooth mouse
- Fast USB flash drive
- USB-C port hub (USB 3, Card Readers, HDMI, LAN, USB C PD thru
- Teclast Stylus
- Transcend 240GB M.2 2242 SSD
- Cheap Windows 10 licence key
The stuff has started to arrive. Tested items are working great so far.
Its all a bit uneccessary, but I like it
SSD upgrade and Windows 10 clean install next. I have extracted the drivers and also downloaded a full driver package from a link found on here
