Flash Sale Price which ends in 3 days. Different to the previous X80 Plus I posted, which was Windows 10 only. This tablet is confirmed shipping with 64-bit Windows 10 (see Youtube clip on Post #1).
In the box is MicroUSB cable, OTG cable, manual, warranty card - no AC adapter.
CPU: Intel Atom X5-Z8300 (Cherry Trail T3-Z8300) Quad Core 1.44GHz (up to 1.84GHz) is equipped with better performance, delivering plenty of power for multitasking and fueling casual games and movies
GPU: Intel HD Graphic Gen8 processor is better and faster in playing games and watching videos than the previous generation
RAM + ROM: 2GB + 32GB offers ultra-fast surfing online, video playing and 3D gaming experience enhanced with DDR3 memory which makes all applications faster. Whether it is needed for work, study or play, it will suit your all needs
TF (MicroSD) card: Up to 128GB (not included)
Windows 10 + Android 5.1 system: The latest system with more excellent interface, compatibility and running effect
8 inch screen: 1280 x 800 WXGA IPS screen offers good experience for watching videos and browsing the Web
Bluetooth 4.0: Supports fast transmission of data, pictures and files, and more faster than Bluetooth 3.0
HDMI output: You could use a HDMI cable to connect your tablet to output the tablet display onto TV screens, monitors or projectors, creating your personal home theater
Gravity sensing system: Can fluently and sensitively run various applications
Other functions: WiFi/MP3/MP4/Calendar/Calculator supported
The mouse and keyboard in the picture are not included
There's 5% off code - but it doesn't work on promo prices: Site5 (just tested it!)
Two questions in case anyone knows
1. Are there custom ROMs available?
2. Is it shipped from China or EU warehouse?

1) Can't see any discussion of ROMs but I'll update if I see anything on XDA, etc.
2) The Dual Boot version is pretty new (at least, judging by TechTablets' comments from mid-January awaiting the Dual Boot's release), so the EU Warehouse option won't appear for a while.

What's the difference between this and the Teclast X98 Air?
Thanks, I looked at the Air III dual while in Hong Kong and almost bought one then. But I haven't tracked it since.
This one is smaller but much cheaper. I'm worried about the battery. Can't decide whether to buy it. I've heard of Gearbest from this site and seen them mentioned before but know nothingof them. Where do they ship from?
I need to research this one more. If it has cellular, I will bite.

Says the battery is 3800mAh, very much doubt this has 2G/3G, never heard it mentioned with the X80 Plus.
Re battery life, from http://www.xiaomitoday.com/teclast-x80-plus-review-a-good-looking-tablet-for-a-decent-price/"This tablet uses a Lithium-Ion battery with 3800 mAh capacity. The manufacturer claims 3 hours of graphically intensive games before you have to put it on the charger. In our testing scenarios, these numbers are accurate. Overall usage and standby time are also increased because of the DPTE intelligent battery management and Windows low-power technology."
...though, again, this X80 Plus is dual-boot, not sure how the battery life will be running Android.

I assume the Android partition can be wiped?
32GB of storage is pretty low...and I personally would rather run Windows than Android.
No experience of dual-boot tablets - I have seen various reports removing Android with other tablets, so hopefully someone will chime in.

Any idea if there is a specific case/keyboard combo to go with this tablet ?

Hmm...just been looking at the comments on that other thread; poor battery life, poor Android ROM optimisation and v.v.slow charging (seems to be a common theme for these Chinese tablets).
Much as I would like an upgraded processor, I can't really see too much point in moving on from my Asus T100. It's a good price though, so heat added

Can't see anything great dual boot in 10" but these Windows 10 only offers might interest you. Chuwi Vi10 Ultimate Windows 10, Cherry Trail Z8300 64bit Quad Core 1.84GHz 10.6" 1366 x 768, 2GB RAM 64GB ROM - £109.58 http://www.gearbest.com/tablet-pcs/pp_259050.html
In summary - dull screen, poor wi-fi, slow memory, bad sound quality & tilt is off - but it is cheap !

Chris on TechTablets says "...they seem to be clearing out the Z8X00 stock waiting for the new and improved Atom Z8X50 series which Intel should have delivered to them by now."
