Windows 10 tablet
From August 24th - this looks good with Windows 10. Unlike earlier Linx 10, this has 2 full size usb ports, and charges at same time.

I was looking at the Dell Outlet site today and you can get the Venue Pro 11 for about the same price.

Interesting benchmarks on that Atom versus a latest Rockchip ARM SOC.
http://www.cnx-software.com/2015/01/...l-atom-z3735f/ The A17 is much a 'less power sapping' Cortex A15. Seems whilst the CPU improves from old Atoms, for games new Atoms and Celerons are for basic stuff only. |

What is the maximum screen size for a free Office Mobile? I could not find an authoritative answer from MS. It's free on my Dell Venue 8 Pro, but this one may need an Office 365 subscription.

My Cube i7 stylus didn't cost much more than that Linx 10. Core m, better graphics, better screen (1080p and with wacom digitizer), 4GB ram, 64GB SSD. Ok, no uk warranty and a direct import from China, but still. Build quality is excellent, could easily pass for a western mainstream brand.

It was not so much the device I was intending to highlight, but the fact it is shipping with Windows 10 and will have all the right drivers, and will have its own install codes etc (not sure if that install code is hard-wired like the 8.1 oem machines). One of the problems people are experiencing with upgrades from 8.1+Bing to 10 is that 10 does not always have all the available drivers, and the recommendation is to upgrade with files kept in place (including drivers), as this seems to work better (same is somewhat true with any PC). Another problem with the 8.1+Bing tablets was that if you did not take proper backup precautions (far to many people do not), and you had to reinstall the OS, you would struggle as the 8.1+Bing OS was a special version, and not available to the public at large. Now the tablets use the standard public release of Windows 10 so it is much easier to get hold of, so even if you had not made proper backups, you now have a more viable option to fall back on. Note: people should still take proper backup precautions eg full system images etc, as that is usually a better way of recovering on tablets because it minimises/eliminates missing driver issues). |
