CHUWI Windows Tablet Hi10 X Computer Tablet PC with Intel N4120, Quad Core 6GB RAM 128GB ROM,1920X1200 IPS Screen,Type-C,BT5.1，WiFi,2 in 1 Tablet (10.1inch)

First, this is for the actual Hi10X tablet. Which is a windows tablet, which by itself is both a big plus when it comes to functionality/openness/backwards compatibility and a big negative when it comes to resource utilization.Mostly I purchased this device to replace a 7" dell Venue 8 pro 5855 (4G ram/128G storage/1080p) I use mostly for media consumption, and once in a while some light application use (ssh, email, etc). In that regard is a definite upgrade. Its got a nice screen, plenty of ram, and the storage is more than adequate. I wanted a smaller lighter x86/windows tablet, and this is probably the best device in that class, now that it is impossible to buy a 7" x86 tablet that isn't using ~5 year old processor design. I find the surfaces and most of the competitive machines too bulky to hold up in bed or while on an airplane. Which is why you always see them on the tray tables instead of peoples laps like you see with phones, kindles, etc.That said, this device isn't going to win any speed awards. Once you turn off windows idiotic virus scanning and telemetry/spying, install a firewall to block it from downloading updates without permission/etc its completely usable for most non-gaming tasks. Given, its probably more compute power than most people had in their win7 machines 10 years ago, one can only blame MS for the lag that is sometimes seen. OTOH, its just a couple watts full bore, so about a 20-30x reduction in power utilization from that 10 year old machine.The battery life situation is frustrating. This tablet is super low power, but that doesn't mean it should come with a phone battery (which is basically what it has). As it stands, the battery life ranges from 12 hours to about an hour depending on what your doing. Reading a book, 12+ hours, watching netflix 10 hours, light web surfing 6-7 hours, watching a video in firefox that doesn't have hardware decoding, 4 hours. Compiling code, about an hour (not many laptops survive for long when compiling code two hours is a lot). If this were running android it would be a 12+ hour device, but windows is all to happy to let random background tasks eat battery, or run software that doesn't let the core sleep between user interactions/etc. Doubling the battery capacity would have made this tablet a no-compromises device. As it is, it battery life is similar to most < $900 laptops. Although on the battery charging, I wish it were possible to charge from a random 5V USB port. The brick it comes with says 12V output, which AFAIK isn't one of the standard USB PD voltages, which explains why none of my other chargers works with the device.Yes, its got enough ports for most uses without having to have a pile of dongles. I did pick up the keyboard for it after owning it for a few days. That is a fine purchase as well, although given how large/heavy it is, they should have put a massive battery in the keyboard. It adds a couple full size USB-A ports which are very useful.In the end 5+ stars, the only shortcoming is really the battery life, and that is fine as long as one doesn't try to run heavy applications. The weight form factor, and price more than make up for the battery life gripe. Most of the rest of the gripes are windows related (minimum back light setting, etc). That is the price of avoiding the apple walled garden that makes it painful to just copy a movie file to the device, or the garbage ware of android that won't get updates in a few months and a long list of functional shortcomings.BTW: Extra star for not dumbing down the BIOS options, its crazy complete.

The tablet its great, best value for the price, battery life is great, gaming is great, Skyrim in 60 fps, love it. Only two bad things:1- HEAVY screen bleeding in my unit. Not really that bad when you are watching a movie, using chrome or playing, except when there is too much black in the screen2- The bios come with a heavy, i dont know how its called, block? slow down? in the processor to protect the tablet from heating and battery life. Already unlocked it and now its work like a charm. A little hot when im gaming, but it has great performance like that. And you can still slow down the processor a little with the power options in windows, settled it at 75% max in the processor and still can play Skyrim in 60 FPS

I've used a predecessor to this tablet for years without problem but it was too slow. I had high hopes for the Chuwi High10 X, but within a short time I began to experience video streaming problems. Even after deleting the graphics driver and updating it with a newer version from Intel the problem continued. At random unexpected moments the video would distort into diagonal lines (see image), then the device would freeze, and if it recovered, the screen graphics including fonts and icons would be pixelated. sometimes the unit just completely crashed and had to be rebooted.I returned the first one and had Amazon send a replacement. The identical problem came up with the replacement unit, so I packed it up and sent it back. I'm not tempted to order another Chuwi product as I suspect it's a hardware problem, not software.

I have tried several 2-in-1 tablets with Linux -- this one works out of the box. The touch screen and camera drivers are in the kernel 5.3.0The keyboard is solid. The magnetic latching of tablet and keyboard works well.The USB-C charging port only works with the charger provided and doesn't work with general purpose adaptive USB-C chargers nor does it work with a pass-though port expansion device for charging.Later: I have determined that the USB-C charging port needs 12V so a standard 5V/9V/15V/20V charger won't work. You have to find a charger with 5V/9V/12V/15V/20V adaptable options but even these don't seem to work.As one should expect the N4100 CPU is OK as is the UHD 600 GPU but neither is at all powerful.If you place this Bash script in your startup applications it will orientate the touchscreen correctly.#!/bin/bash# This Bash Script sets the touch screen orientation############################################################################### first find the touchscreen xinput idtouchscreen=$(xinput list | grep "Goodix" | grep "pointer")touch_id=${touchscreen:50:2}## set the rotated transform matrix for the touchscreenxinput set-prop ${touch_id} 'Coordinate Transformation Matrix' 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1#echo "touchscreen = " ${touchscreen}echo "xinput set-prop " ${touch_id} "Coordinate Transformation Matrix 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1 "echo "press key to exit"read anythingexit############################################################################

I didn't get the keyboard. The KB blue tooth drivers are too buggy in my experience and detachable KB track pads have poor response. I don't need intensive word processing anyway, but I use Libre Office freeware which is not possible with Win10 S, Android, Apple operating systems, etc. This tablet is fast and has a very responsive touch screen. it looks great visually too. It's light enough to use in a 7.5 in wide smart phone goose neck desk clamp holder. It's a fine light portable backup PC WIN 10. - I avoid the S version of Win 10 pushed by other sellers.
