Chuwi is one of the Chinese companies that has launched several attractive devices that run both Windows 10 and Android, and now the company is preparing to debut another such product, this time with support for a keyboard.
While this essentially makes it a 2-in-1 device, Chuwi positions the Hi8 Air as a tablet that runs Windows 10 and Android 5.1 and comes with several hardware upgrades over the base Hi8 model.
Obviously, Android 5.1 isn't quite the best choice when it comes to a device launched in 2018, but on the other hand, Chuwi hopes that its tablet will impress with its other hardware features which include an 8-inch Full HD display with 16:10 aspect ratio and an Intel X5 Cherry Trail Z8350 processor running at 1.44 GHz.
The processor is paired with just 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, with microSD card support allowing for an additional 128GB if needed.
Like every other Chuwi model, the Hi8 Air has plenty of connectivity options, including a micro USB port, micro HDMI, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The battery is a 4,000mAh unit.
No details were given about the device's price, but it's worth knowing that the Hi8 Air also comes with a Bluetooth keyboard in the box, so you can turn it into a more productive computer if you need to type faster.
On the other hand, the hardware specifications don't make it productive enough, and running Windows 10 could be a bit slow, although it's important to note that Android is also offered in case someone wants to use it for gaming or things like that.
More information on when the device will be released will be offered soon, as Chuwi has not yet sent out the full announcement for the Hi8 Air.
