Here are some new tablet deals I spotted on the web while searching price drops. The popular Chuwi Hi8 is back on sale again at the price of $92 at Gear Best, it’s been reduced from $112. This little Atom Z3736F powered 8-inch tablet has a nice high res 1920 x 1200 16:10 IPS Panel. And a decent design, you can see my Chuwi Hi8 review here. The PiPo X8 is a hybrid tablet meets mini PC, I vide...[Read More]
Chuwi have done well in the 8 inch dual boot segment, this is their 3rd dual boot eight incher and the Hi8 looks exactly like the Chuwi Vi8 Ultimate edition released about the same time.
The Chuwi Hi8 is basiclly an upgrade of the Vi8 Ultimate. Sharing the exact same build and Atom Z3736F chipset, the Hi8 has a sharper, brighter 1920 x 1200 display with 299 PPI. Dual boot Android 4.4.4 and Windows 8.1 come stock at the time of release.
So I have the 4th Chuwi Vi8 model you could say, the Hi8 with it’s Vi8 Ultimate design, chipset and lack of HDMI. It has a very sharp (iPad Retina sharp) 1920 x 1200 screen that is brighter than the Chuwi Vi8 Ultimate. Both have the exactly same design and specs, they have the horrible 0.3 MP VGA front facing cameras which are almost useless even in video chat. They both have lost the micro ...[Read More]
It’s been a battle getting hold of a PiPo W8, but 3rd time lucky my unit is finally in the EU. Hopefully arriving tomorrow if not Monday. If you’re new to the PiPo W8 model, it’s a promising Core M 10.1″ tablet with a super sharp, 2560 x 1600 pixel screen. This could be my last Core M I review or maybe the Cube i7 Stylus will be, but these higher end tablets are just to ris...[Read More]
Our review is now online of the Hi8, http://techtablets.com/chuwi-hi8/review/ Update 15th June: It’s now official on Chuwi’s website and has been announced on their Weibo. I will be reviewing this one, and should have one in a week or two. And hope to compare it to the Vi8 Ultra/Ultimate edition. Gearbest have lowered their price even further, it’s now just $92.87 without special...[Read More]
I’ve found which I think is the cheapest deal yet on the 64GB dual boot Teclast X98Air 3G, only $206 with free delivery. Hopefully soon we will see this tablet below $200 everywhere. And the Chuwi Vi10 Dual boot for $153.69 only about $4 dollars more than the limited $149 sale that was on Ali Express a few weeks ago. And then there is the Chuwi Hi8 which is up for pre order at $96 with coupo...[Read More]
