The Chuwi store won't deliver it to the UK but looks like Amazon will

Arrived this morning by UPS from China...

Very impressed so far, they sent me the faster i5 processor model but forgot the stylus ::)

Anyway, all set up with no issues, 8Gb seems perfectly adequate for some reason, display is lovely, keyboard works well, touch screen sensitive and accurate... Had to order a PD USB charger as none of the chargers I have (i.e. squillions) worked with it - it comes with a 12V charger but I wanted to limit the number of power bricks I travel with...

I'll update when I've used it for a bit...

I could have bought a squillionteen different Android tablets but having the same OS as my desktop is lovely...  cloud9:

Thinking about it, I realise that except when I switch it off at the wall when I go away it has either been on or on standby for 13 years  redface:

We don't even switch ours off then, in fact it's on a UPS so stays on through power cuts  redface:
