$130 would get you an Intel Compute stick locally, so this is actually not bad at all.
Surely a second-hand laptop would be better option if your budget was so tight?
That's true. I initially thought this had a FHD display like the other china-Atom-books, but turns out it's just 1366 x 768.
$60 USD extra though gets you an upgraded 15.6" model with 64GB + 4GB RAM + FHD display which is $200 AUD.
Let's hope that ROM (Read Only Memory) is a typo, otherwise it'll be quite useless.
I think a lot of manufacturers refer to memory that is not RAM as ROM. It's technically incorrect as it's not read-only but for some reason someone decided it was a good idea to use it.
That 32gb rom is not gonna have much room left for the user with windows 10 on it. But i guess its ok for the price.
That and it's eMMC which means it's atrociously slow.
the body looks the same as the Dere D17
half the price of that but half the memory, half the emmc and half the resolution
At first glance it looks like a MBA lol
that's probably intentional :p
Wonder if I could get a DOS install or an old Windows on it to play old games. Hmmmmmmmmm
DOSbox should run fine on it.
Actually around $120 with Aud/Usd > 0.8, and GeekBuying sitewide 4% off for email subscription.
Can someone ease my concern. What is USB 2.0 Host? Same as all PCs, or crappy usb on tablets, or something else. I might buy if usb is normal.
An atom z8350, 2gb ram, 32gb eMMC and 1366 X 768 resolution… Do you value your life at $130 because this is going to be torturous everytime you use it.
My opinion is that the Celerons with 4GB of ram is the absolute minimum.
How would the TBook X8 go? This has FHD and 8 GB of RAM but the same CPU. Still very slow?
Quite frankly it is a waste getting 8gb of RAM with an atom, it simply cannot utilise that much memory. I think its cap is 2-4GB.
Remember that an atom chip is made for tablets/chromebooks more than for laptops.Go for a better chip rather than more RAM.
You can get dell inspiron 11 3000's delivered for $169-189 on the dell factory outlet - stock is random but you get a full 1yr local warranty, a celeron cpu and 4gb ram.
Use the compact os technique on the emmc and it will hold up ok.
