Teclast Tbook 11 User Review

[Lucas]

I recently purchased a Teclast Tbook Tablet. I’m not a gamer so my angle is more in the line of using it as a windows computer and the Android side as a research tool.

One of the first things I noticed when I took it out of the box was how thin it felt, and I liked it’s solid feel.

The screen is very clear and easy to read. Being an older guy this is very important as my vision is not what it used to be. I liked how it is readable from many angles. It is so smooth to scroll. It really is a pleasure to use.

One of the things I really like is having a duel boot. It’s like having two tablets but taking up only the room of one. I look at it as having a lap top (with the keyboard case) and a tablet at the same time.

I purchased it because it had 4 GB Ram and 64 GB of Rom. I have also got a Cube i10 and found that the rom was insufficient. Leaving only 3 GB of rom for Android. It also didn’t allow me to move apps to the SD card so I soon run out of space.

There are a few changes I would like to see in this Teclast tablet. 1) The SD card in the Teclast is visible only in Android. This means that media and document files that can be used by both Windows and Android can only be seen by Android.

This tablet also does not allow moving apps to the SD card. One research App I use has over 1GB of data The app allows the data to be downloaded to the SD card, but this option is greyed out as the tablet does not allow for this.

2) I would love to see another USB port.

3) Also a DC Jack

On the whole I would recommend the tablet It is well built looks and feels good and is a pleasure to use

Heu Lucas! Thanks for the review. Interesting. I have a tbook 10, and what’s  really an handicap is that even if it has micro usb and DC, when dc is plugged and you connecet for instance a usb mouse, it simply stops charging. And if I use a otg+charge hub, it won’t do both neither. So with your tbook 11, can you use a charge+otg hub? I am thinking actually of buying a cube i10, since it has USB and DC. Does your cube i10 were able to do both at the same time? It’s ultra cheap on gearbest, like 130e keyboard and tab

Hi Frederic.

The Tbook 11 does not charge and have another use of the USB. The Cube i10 does charge and continue to charge while using the USB The i10 has a full size USB as well as a micro. The only thing about my Cube is that the ROM is too small. Mine has 32 GB with 2.9 GB allotted to Android and the rest to windows. The unit does not allow you to move apps to the SD card or store their data on it. If you can get one with 64GB internal ROM it should be OK

Hey Lucas, the TBooK 10 and 11 are very bad tablets, good specs but  way too much defaults and issues. Finally i bought yesterday a cube i10 with keyboard included for the very good price of 129$ on gearbest. For me the ROM is not an issue since i will only install a fresh windows 10 on it, and use the tablet mode of windows and the apps of the windows store and i need it to be more “portable”, so i’ll get the full 32go for Windows, wich is very sufficient if i install the programs on the SD card.  Plus, i have the feeling that my chuwi vi10 were faster and smoother that the tbook 10 (an 11 too) even if there is only 2gb of ram and a older processor, and i think it is because the screen resolution is lower wich suit better the intel atom modest performance, and because the 2gb of ram are at 1333mhz when the 4gb of the tbook 10 and 11 are at 1024mhz… And the full HD display doesn’t help the performance even if it looks quite good. I feel like i waste money on the tbook 10 lol

The story were that i really like my vi10, but the hdmi port stopped working (hardware issue) and i really enjoy this feature, so i bought the tbook 10 thinking it would be a good upgrade, but the perf are so so, the keyboard never release and no otg while charging… So i finally ordered a cube i10 with specs similar to my vi10, but i’ms sure it will perform better than the tbook 10, plus the mini hdmi port is more solid that the micro hdmi port.

Sorry to continue with T 10 in this thread, but mine is charging with USB mouse or using OTG with a stick. The problem: it works under Windows only, and with FAT32 sticks. It can not recognise NTFS. As I do not own a hub, no idea about its function. The above test was made with the “new” Teclast keyboard connected as well; same results (only the keyboard’s touch panel became too sensible, hardly usable). Under Android the quoted problems appear.

Hey Jozsef, so your tbook 10 can charge trough DC while using the micro usb ports for OTG?  It must be a different batch…Windows should recognize all formats,Android is doesn’t recognize ntfs i think. And yes the “new” keyboard’s micro USB port is useless….. This tablet is a total waist of money. Very very disapointed.
