Chuwi Hi10 Max debuts as potential Microsoft Surface alternative
The Hi10 Max is now available for $319 on Chuwi's own online store, in which case customers only receive the tablet. The model is also available with a keyboard and stylus, but Chuwi has not yet specified a price for the bundles. Shipping is free for customers in Europe and the USA.
The tablet has a 12.96-inch screen with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,920 and an aspect ratio of 3:2. The 300 cd/m² bright screen not only registers touch inputs, but can also be operated with a stylus- up to 4,096 pressure levels can be differentiated. As the Intel N100 is not a typical smartphone or tablet SoC and supports Windows, the Hi10 Max could be seen as a cheap alternative to Microsoft's Surface computers.
12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and a 512 GB SDD are installed, so the tablet is well equipped in these regards. The same applies to the connectivity options, as there are two USB-C ports with a full range of functions, plus USB 3.2 Gen 1 and a jack socket. A microHDMI output is also available. WiFi 6 is on board for wireless connectivity.
The tablet weighs 775 grams and comes with a metal casing with a thickness of 9 millimeters. The main camera on the back has a resolution of 8 MP, while the front camera has a resolution of 5 MP. A battery life of up to 5 hours is advertised.
