Linx 1020 10-Inch Tablet with Keyboard (Intel Atom 2 GB RAM 32 GB Storage Win

Great value tablet

Bought this tablet as I wanted a small, light tablet yet needed it to have a screen size larger than my current 7 in and this fits the bill perfectly the added bonus is that it comes with a dockable keypad/ track pad, no its not got a powerful processor but fine if like me all you want to do is surf the internet and watch films. It comes with a small amount of memory but this is easily solved by slotting in a micro SD card windows 10 took a bit of getting used to but not really an issue, it does exactly what i need it to do and at a great price.Read full review

Buy one brand new.

Bought reconditioned model from a well known high street chain, and couldn't get the battery to hold a charge. I liked the lay-out and features though, so bought one brand new, and so far it seems spot on.
The tablet is more like a mini laptop. Seems to have all the functions of a full sized Windows 10 laptop, in a unit half the size. The screen size is decent, with a decent resolution. It's not got the biggest internal memory, but has an SD card slot, and will take an external hard drive, as it has two USB connections.
Obviously, running Windows 10, it doesn't have access to the kind of app store you would expect if you had an Apple or Android system, but it depends what you are after. I've found all the things I really need, and because it works like a 'grown-up' computer, you have a half decent operating system.
The down side to the tablet itself is the slightly heavier weight than it's counterparts, but you have to take into account the USB connections, HDMI connector, and detachable keyboard. Obviously, there isn't an optical drive built in, but again, the USBs come to the fore. I bought an external Blu Ray drive. The tablet will just about power the external drive itself, but it is very hard on the battery.
All in all, seems to have been a good buy so far.

I don't think you could get much better value for money

It's not a high-powered workstation, but then it doesn't pretend to be. It runs Windows applications quite adequately, including Skype and cut-down Office apps (you can pay for Office 365 to upgrade them). Decent keyboard, which just snaps off when you want and stays on when you want. A tad heavy with the keyboard, but fine as a tablet.

One unexpected use for this is as a remote control for Presonus Studio One DAW. Works just fine with the free Presonus downloaded app.

Expandable with an SD slot, two USB ports, an HDMI output and audio out. It will never replace my desktop, but then that's not what I bought it for - and I really don't see that I could have spent less money and got so much for the money.Read full review

Good tablet but lacks full 64bit support

It's a great little tablet with very good (6 hours or so) battery life, but there is problems when getting this to switch on and it is hampered by 32bit UEFI which does indeed limit to 32bit Windows, but you can install 64bit linux if you like to tinker. User beware: if you install linux make sure you clone the drive in case you need to go back as it's a real pain in the **** to reinstall windows back on!

I will say Linx support is very good should there be problems.Read full review

:-(

The pc is okay. Its fairly good value for money but for me is very slow. It is not a suitale replacement for a tablet like an ipad (as mine had broke).
The speakers are loud but lack quality.
The screen is good as it plays videos in hd but again could be better as you can see pixels.
Memory is good at the moment but i bought a 128gig miceo sd just incase.
The pc does struggle with multiple windows and programes and is unresponsive at times and slow to start up.

In hindsight i should have spent more money on a more decent tablet. Would not buy again.Read full review

LINX 1020 tablet complete with attachable keyboard

Read a lot of reports before buying some good but some gave it a poor review. I am used to Windows 10 and have 2 Windows phones so it is a big plus that all info can be exchanged by Windows and OneDrive. Works well and id better than my work Acer Iconia A3. Windows is a better system than Android but there are less Apps and less good free Apps. At £105 I consider it a bargain.Read full review

A little crack !er

As a part time journalist I needed a small portable windows laptop / tablet to carry around so when I get a creative urge I can get typing. I also wanted something to watch Netflix or browse the web when I needed a change. This refurbished unit is outstanding value for money and looked brand new other than the replaced generic packaging. I've spent more on a meal and drinks for my wife and I on a night out. The keyboard is suitably tactile to enable accurate typing. I marked the battery life as not having a long life only because there wasn't an option for not bad. I would suggest you buy a 128Gb micro SD card to expand the memory but other than that I cannot fault it. This would also make a great unit for the kids as a low cost alternative to an I-Pad. It works very well as a tablet and the screen is suitable responsive. I cannot fault it for the money..... a true bargain!Read full review

Great like table + keyboard....

Not the latest and greatest, but for a normal very usable table & keyboard it's great.
Runs win10 happily and fits in the small back pack I use easily.
