Chuwi SurBook Hands-on Review: $300 Surface Pro clone

Hi guys!
Some days ago Microsoft announced its new tablet Surface Pro.
If you were expecting something groundbreaking, you probably went home disappointed.
Sure, it has some upgrades and new features, but even Microsoft didn’t call new tablet
Surface Pro 5, probably for that reason.
But in this video, we’ll talk about another 2-in-1 tablet from Chinese manufacturer
Chuwi.
The name is an obvious reference to Microsoft Surface line.
Although, Chuwi SurBook has “book” in its name, the tablet actually aims for the
Surface Pro in terms of design.
You have a similar tablet main form factor and a similar kickstand design.
Instead of a keyboard dock, you get a keyboard cover.
The SurBook even has the same display specs, as Surface Pro 4 or new Surface Pro.
That means a 12.3-inch screen with a resolution of 2736 x 1824 pixels.
The exact same 267 ppi pixel density, and the exact same 3:2 aspect ratio.
And like a good Surface Pro competitor, Chuwi SurBook comes with pressure sensitive pen.
Sure, it only has 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity, but that’s still plenty.
We should say that new tablet Chuwi SurBook is not high-end 2-in-1 computing device.
The biggest drawbacks of this device is CPU and its storage type.
The latter is sadly eMMC, which doesn’t speak well of read and write speeds.
As for the processor, that’s a latest gen Apollo Lake Celeron N3450.
It’s not Core defintely, not even a Core m3, but it is a huge step up from the previous
Cherry and Bay Trail Atoms.
New tablet Chuwi SurBook offers the full power of,Windows 10 system, not simplified
Windows 10 S.
Of course, there are also a few things that Chuwi SurBook does a bit better than even
New Surface Book.
While Microsoft remains stubborn in adopting USB-C, Chuwi is giving you a choice.
Three in fact.
It has one USB-C port, but also two USB 3.0 ports.
USB-C is used to charge 10000 mAh battery.
And, unlike the New Surface Pro, both the keyboard and the pen are included in price
tag.
It should be no surprise that Chuwi SurBook is going to cost almost half of Surface Pro.
Its retail price tag is $473 for 64 GB of eMMC storage and $498 for 128 GB.
We think, Chuwi SurBook is a great 2-in-1 tablet that looks like and feels new Microsoft
Surface Pro.
Of course, it is less powerful, but also it is much cheaper.
Under the video, you can find links, where to buy cheaper.
