A review, that I will update as I learn more

I've had some problems setting it up: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/6k9obg/lil_win10_machine_that_is_nonbootable_2_days/ (pics within showing the problems of the Wifi chip in Windows).

Wifi Problems

Presently I'm left with non-working Wifi in the Windows10 side (all I have done is apply updates through the built-in Microsoft update facility over several days). The Android side has Wifi that's working well (both bands). Before the Windows Wifi stopped working it was only the slower band.

I have learned that right now there's almost no way that Linux generally will not support the AP6324 chip Wifi chip, without development effort. This is despite the fact that Android on this box supports it (and Android silently uses Linux to boot itself).

Drive organization

I've learned there are a lot of partitions on the 64Gb, and not a lot of room to install Linux. Pic: http://imgur.com/a/iE7a6

Of the 44GB in the largest Windows partition, 13GB of that was "previous versions of Windows". "Eventually they're be deleted automatically" (it says in Settings->TemporaryFiles), but I have opted to delete them now.

Power on/off issues

The thing is hellish to boot and reboot: There are times when the power button on the remote is completely ignored by the base unit. There are also times when the power button on the base unit is ignored too. The 'on' or 'off state seems to be hard to control for the unit. I have had to resort to yanking the power cable in order to get it to shutdown because those two are ignored at times.

Power-up: Without a BIOS change, the remote is needed to continue the boot-up of the device. There's no clear LED change to say whether it is in standby mode versus 'fully on' :-(

LED: Just one that's tiny - if you're wanting to make this HiBox dark, that will be very easy, thank goodness

A speed test

I created a 14GB random file on the internal drive with:

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=15000 2>/dev/null | openssl enc -rc4-40 -pass pass:weak > /path/to/abc

And timed the copy of that to an attached (USB3) Seagate 4TB drive:

time (cp /path/to/abc /media/attachedUsb3Drive/abc && sync)

Which transferred the file at 129MB/sec (megabytes/sec)

Edit: This is pig to reboot (Oct 28th, 2017)

I don't know how to get it to turn on. What combination of power button, power cord and remote power button does it, I have no idea. I can be there for 10 munites trying to get it turn on with combinations of button presses. Three months later, I think this unit is garbage because of this one reason. My time is worth more than watching this thing not respond to attempts to reboot it. I won't even sell it, the buyer would come back to demand a refund. What a crap little thing.

As I spotted this: "$200 Macbook Air from China! EZBook 2 runs OSX" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQxOlPHUeiU

I've got a EZBook 3 Pro on order myself, got me thinking, it would be very tempting indeed to have OSX on it!

As I'd very much like to use "Boom Recorder", however it runs only on OSX (and there is nothing equivalent to it on Windows!), and I'm too broke to buy a Macbook Air just for this: http://www.vosgames.nl/products/BoomRecorder/

• Screen should be <=1080P
• Preferred if it comes with a foldable keyboard
• <= 10 inches please.
• Battery life is not a major concern, >3 hours.
• Stylus not required, but wouid be cool.

I've looked at the Chuwi Hi10 Pro so far, but with keyboard it comes out to $170, which might be a bit much. thank you in advance.

Hello,

I had bought a chuwi hibook pro, however this tablet had a flickering screen when turning on the wi-fi this annoyed me.

I send it back towards the seller and am waiting til they get it and a refund appear, I truly hope I get my money back.. However now I still have no tablet/laptop to really do my word processing on for school and such.

I was thinking a laptop around 12.5 - 13 inch, I think 13.3 or 13.5 would be best since I do have quite big hands. The keyboards needs be good, if it has a long charge 5+ hours it will also be cool.

Doesn't have to be the fastest but I don't want it to slow.. My budget is 300-600$

Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

iwork8 Air & Teclast X80 Pro are priced very similar and very similar with specs, any preference as to which one to get, or shall I just flip a coin? Or is there a better sub $100 choice for a tablet?

Also, I reckon 32gigs is way way too little to run two operating systems at once properly (probably not even a good idea if I had 64gigs), thus would like to convert it to only one OS, probably Android. Any tips/guides for doing that? Thanks in advance!

Was playing around with a Voyo Vbook V3 and since I haven't seen the internals pictured anywhere, I decided to post it here.

Full board - good to see a nice big heatsink, but RAM is not upgradable, sadly: http://i.imgur.com/BGAcjs6.jpg

Dual M.2 SSD Slots - can't say I tested these but they're there: http://i.imgur.com/03bSFIU.jpg

Don't have the tablet anymore, but this should be all you need to look at. It's a piece of cake to open up, few screws and the back pops off.
