Amazing product
The shipping process was reasonable, and the product itself is the best purchase I could have made. It is like having a 3ds capable of pretty much anything a desktop can do. It is an amazing product for someone who grew up with a 3ds.

Amazing Device - Couldn't be Happier
Solid build quality - this is a sturdy little box. And yeah, it's TINY. But, it's an insanely solidly implementation of something I've wanted for ... forever in a UMPC: solid compute, and the ability to add monitors, mice, and keyboard IF/AS needed.
On its own - without any additional peripherals, this piglet works. The keyboard IS tiny ... but I find that it's actually easy to get used to, and EASIER to use than, say, an iOS keyboard (even on an iPad Mini) - and I think it's just the 'haptic' nature of actually having little chiclet keys to push.
The mouse-buttons up on the left-side along with a track-pad up on the right side is ... new/interesting/different - and I'm finding that it's quite easy to adapt to - even over just a few days.
But, this thing bristles with ports. With, effectively, 2x usb cables (one an OTG for power passthrough), I can wire up 2 external monitors, and then use BT to spin up a 108-key (folding) keyboard, and a Logi MX and ... this tiny little box has enough horse-power to drive/handle LEGIT lighter workloads (i.e., it's not a build-box or going to run hard-core number crunching, but it can handle code editing, RDP/admin tasks, and is a SOLID portable ... workstation.
Again, couldn't be happier. This device is a solid implementation of ultra-portable compute for "on the go" or need access to a full-blown lappy (even though it's tiny) in a pinch - ALONG with being able to be a solid platform for when I'm on the road and/or away from my main workstation.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on the build quality and versatility of our UMPC.
We are delighted to hear that it is serving you well as a solid portable workstation. It is wonderful to know that the connectivity options (especially the ports) and the build quality are meeting your needs for code editing and admin tasks. We agree—having a full-blown laptop experience in such a tiny form factor is a game-changer for travel.
We appreciate your business and your feedback!
Love this little machine.
So far I'm having a lot of fun using this pc. Right now my only issues is sometimes the keyboard doesn't come up in tablet mode which seems to be an issue after a windows update and I wished the battery would last a little longer. I get about an hour to an hour and a half playing games like Tekken 6 and plenty of battery life just browsing, networking and doing basic typing stuff. The system does charge to full pretty fast so it's not usually a major problem. Overall, this is a good system to travel with and work on without taking up a lot of space and it's powerful enough to use for video and photo editing, streaming and anything else you want throw at it.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re so happy to hear that the system is powerful enough for your editing work and that it’s making a great travel companion.
Regarding the on-screen keyboard issue in tablet mode: you are correct that this is often related to Windows updates. Sometimes, manually toggling the "Tablet Mode" settings or checking for optional driver updates in Windows Update can force it to behave correctly again. Please feel free to contact us at support for more troubleshooting of the issue.
We appreciate your feedback on the battery life and are glad the fast charging is helpful.
