Looks like a Chuwi machine - anyone got any more info?
- baybal2 8y agoIt looks like a reference design from Intel that they were giving off for free to volume buyers 2 something years ago. There tons of companies other than Chuwi doing the same design, though Chuwi is on the better side on quality
- voltagex_ 8y agoAh right - thanks for that. Are there any good articles explaining the industry, or the supply chain? I know about Clevo and Winstron and that's about it.
- baybal2 8y agoDespite its enormity, I believe there is nothing amounting to the "OEM electronics industry: annotated manual" Just like the work culture in a big dotcom is something totally alien to the remaining industry, the way thing work in the Pearl River delta region is very different to the outside world.
- geokon 8y agoChuwi is basically running a scam. They switched out the hardware for cheaper parts once they got their good reviews (and it no longer runs Linux btw) https://www.cnx-software.com/2017/10/22/chuwi-lapbook-14-1-laptop-manufacturing-changes-hardware-at-launch-vs-several-months-later/ https://www.cnx-software.com/2017/10/22/chuwi-lapbook-14-1-l... and yet tech sites keep promoting it...

UPD. After looking at the ports on the left side I've found precise model. It's YEPO 737A, not Teclast or Chuwi. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/YEPO-737A-laptop-Apollo-13-3-inch-Laptop-Intel-Celeron-N3450-Notebook-gold-grey-colour-6GB/32832817390.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/YEPO-737A-laptop-Apollo-13-3...
