I bought 2 Chuwi devices for Xmas 2017. Both were not used very much, but still one only worked until about Easter time, the other one until the end of summer or early fall 2018. If you buy cheap, it could be costly in the end.

I got this two in one last week from Amazon and so far so good. Everything is as inspected. Great screen, the stylist works wonderfully, the keyboard works perfect, and the table itself doesn't over heat. For $309 without the keyboard and stylist, you can't go wrong.

Hi Lon, Thank you very much for the review, I live in Yemen and I bought this tablet along with the keyboard and pen for $400, however, I got it from the local Xiaomi agent who is also an agent for CHUWI, the extra benefit I got is a 2-year-waranty from the agent let's hope I won't need the warranty any time soon.

However, the speaker is not loud enough, I think my Samsung S8+ smartphone is louder than this tablet.

I had a Chuwi Hi10 for two years. It worked great until my wife dropped it. One thing I did not like about it was you HAD to use the battery. You could not keep it plugged in and use it like a regular laptop. Can you use this plugged in or do you have to use the battery? - I don't think this battery is replaceable so if it dies, you just have to throw it away, or 1) Can you change the battery or if not, 2) Can you keep using it plugged in after the battery dies?

It's very true, I tried their Lapbook Pro it lasts less than a month December 26, 2019, till January 23, 2020. I sent it back costing me $50 until now no action has been taken. They already received the item but they can do nothing due to pandemic. I think I will charge it to experience and not trust this brand again. I'm still hoping I will receive the laptop fixed and ready to use but considering the quality, they have it may not last again for a month. A waste of money. I won't recommend it to anybody else.

I use a MS Surface Pro which is much more expensive than the Chuwi. If I needed a low cost windows tablet I think the Surface Go is a safer bet.

I still use a Surface Pro 2 (4GB, 128GB), but that was not much more expensive- I got it 5 years ago for 450 euros, including the keyboard, new. It is time to upgrade it, as battery is getting weak, and RAM/storage space is low and non-upgradable, but I guess this time I will be forced to pay much more for something ultraportable. AMD have such good chips with gaming capable graphics- but nobody is making a cheap (500-600 euro) and powerful ultraportable with them, because every device now is trying to be ultrathin, at the expense of $ and power.

Not sure why anyone would want to game on this, the processor isn't really powerful enough for that. It looks like it's fine for browsing, watching media and doing regular office documents, probably it's main purpose. If you want to game and do video editing you will need more power an i5 or i7 and if that's the case a laptop wins.
