The Chuwi Hi10 Pro sports a full metal unibody design featuring an exquisite aluminum alloy chassis. The metallic finish gives it a premium look one would not expect from a budget device. It looks solid and the texture feels great in the hand — especially the curved edges which aid the grip — and can take casual everyday handling.
The Chuwi Hi10 Pro offers a generous heaping of connectivity options, all lined up on one edge of the tablet. There’s the TF card slot, USB Type-C for charging, Micro USB, Micro HDMI, and the 3.5mm headphone jack. The opional keyboard includes too a USB port. Chuwi has done well to pack all of these in its sleek form factor. Here you can read the unboxing article.
Windows 10 OS
The Chuwi Hi10 Pro ships with Windows 10 Home & Remix OS 2.0 Dual OS. If you are a fan of Microsoft’s modern interface, you will be delighted. Some of Windows 10’s features were built with diminutive tablets in mind, including smaller Live Tile sizes (to fit more on screen at once), access to the camera from the lock screen and more keyboard shortcuts. There is an abundance of apps from Microsoft and a wide range of third-party developers. And with the many new features (such as Cortana and Microsoft Edge) and functions (such as Windows store applications running in Windows under desktop mode) added to Windows 10, a Windows tablet is more useful and functional than ever. With 64GB of eMMC storage, the tablet booted Windows 10 Home Edition in just 13 seconds. I update it with no problem at all to Windows 10 Home Insider Preview latest version 1607 build 14936.1000.
