Great review, again. Really want this Teclast F15, but you're right, it just seems way too expensive at the moment. As someone mentions, for only slightly more you can pick up a branded laptop (hp, Acer, etc) with similar spec, and sometimes even better! Lack of Type-C still seems like a glaring omission at this price point. Can't help but feel like brands such as Teclast, Chuwi, etc are losing their "budget" appeal as even the base models of theirs are coming in at similar prices to similar spec laptops which are already available to purchase by major brands. Bring back the days of sub $250 Chinese laptops!
@@Rinriji Stays relatively cool. Of course long intense hours, it's get warm in a particularly area (where the battery is located). But ensure the bottom gets proper ventilation and it'll be fine. As I said, I've had it for over a year now and it works perfectly fine.
So, other than that half size up/down arrow keys, the screen would also be a showstopper for me. Been using a 100% sRGB screen reaching 300 nits, I don't think I can downgrade to this one.
Man, if only one of the Chinese players would just make a bright screen, I'm sold. Outdoor work on my EZ Book can be impossible. Considering getting one of those outdoor brick things from Dell but they are heavy! Pull your socks up China!
Great review. I hope that Laptop manufacturers start sticking to 2280 only as that has become the most used size, and it should be more or less standard now. A smaller size is only needed where you can not fit that larger size but I wish these manufacturers would do anything to avoid using a odd size M.2 card.
Hi, Chris could you maybe consider reviewing the Meizu X8 it looks like a great phone and i think u would make a great review for it. i haven't seen any reviews of it that are your quality so thats why i am asking. it will also make a bit more views cuz there arent that much reviews out there. Thanks
Always return to your channel when I need a tech overhaul. This Macbook Air 2010 is slow as hell and my Haier 2010 Celeron CloudReady/Linux wifi seems to have died. So really need cheap alternative to a LG Gram/Asus ZenBook/MateBook under $300. Circa 14" will do, plus good road warrior battery life and zippy (min 4GB RAM). Can you recommend anything? Seen a FUSION 5 on Amazon $199 but never heard of them. Thx
Dear sir, hope, you are doing great! This laptop seems quite interesting to me but quite worried about the performance of N4100 processor. Based on your experience, do you think, it worth the money? Will it be able to handle multi-tasking and 20+ chrome tabs at a time without any issue? I am using Core i3 3rd Gen (+ 6GB RAM + SSD) Laptop [and Core i5 4th Gen (+8GB RAM + SSD) Desktop at my office] and wants to update so for my Research and Data Analysis work. I am an avid user and will be running R Language, Matlab, STATA, and the like software.) Will this laptop able to run/handle these software well (faster and smoother)? Thanks for your kind support.
Gemini Lake's standard is $ 300 or more RAM6GB and PowerDelivery charge and IPS LCD. If you are in the $ 400 range, you can not compete because the Xiaomi 12.5 inch will be in competition.
Hello, I really like your channel, in fact I want buy the mini pc for aliexpress you review in deitails....I asked on the comments of video if you suggest it as main pc for the durability. Do you think it can handle 4 or 5 years? the component are good enough?
Hi Chris i just bought this laptop after watching ur video, it's a good laptop I love the screen is very colorful good for watching a movie but i have 1 problem thought the laptop getting hot on the top left corner. Do u have any suggestion for this issue?
hey Chris, amazing Video! One Question: have you tested the Teclast using photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign? and how does it perform? and if you don't tested it, can you guess if its able to do some Photoshop, illustrator and indesign work on it ? Thanks
My Teclast F15 is now two and a half years old. A good looking and performing machine but plagued by quality issues. The right hand hinge broke away from the screen about six months ago, plus the shift key is faulty. Both Teclast and Chuwi could be great if hinge issues, etc were sorted out. UK July 2021.
I have to buy for office use when I go to trekking or fishing. You said the display is not so bright and I can be struggled with solar light. The teclast f15 was just in my cart for the shop but now I dont know what to do. I have to search another 15,6 with better display? Thank you
So the chuwi areobook is smaller than the techlast f15 And chuwi has 2,0 mega pixel camera But the teclast f15 has only 1,0 Teclast f15 a bit longer battery life CHUWI has a thin keyboard like the mac books
Hi, thanks for all your work and excellent reviews. I have a problem in choosing this model or JUMPER X4 PRO. If you or anyone present here can help me decide which laptop will be better. The price in both cases is very similar, although on paper JUMPER X4 PRO specification looks much better. I am waiting for adv0ice and suggestion. Regards
Hi Chris, got the F15 after your review and it's great. I just have one issue with it not going to sleep whether on battery or electricity. Tried all possible fixes available out there to no avail. Do you have that issue?

Hi i have a teclastf15 and it writes by itselfs a lot of "0" and the touchpad doesn't work well, i heard other people had the same problems, but i still dont know how to fix it. Can you help me, thank you.
Nice but compared to what you can get at the price for a second hand laptop with a proper cpu this just makes absolutely no sense at all sadly, just too under powered.
nothing is as described. the base is plastic, vinyl, which breaks very quickly and falls into pieces. it's impossible to use, but the machine is good, you can't put it away because it will fall apart. I just bought CHUWI, which has an aluminum base. EU.
Tool Biigg track pad, I think if this device has a track pad along the spacebar plus one button like it would be better, but for the size seen in this review video it is too long for the track pad size 👍.

That is the problem with these Chinese laptops. We can get 8th gen i3 based laptop in same price from HP or Acer. Why would anyone buy this laptop at such price? If it was below $300, then more people would think of buying.

Do not buy this laptop, it comes with a defective keyboard, and will result in a 'ghostpress' character issue, where a randomly selected character is continuously pressed, making your laptop effectively useless. And you won't get support nor a replacement keyboard for your device...
Not even planning to buy a laptop, but I do enjoy your videos. Appreciate your work Chris.
