Chuwi Hi8 Teardown, look at internals [4K]

Ғылым және технология

Not a full teardown, but a look at some the internals of the Hi8 and the touch digitizer part number I need is PINGBO PB80JG2296. Overall the build looks fine for a $93 tablet. I got my Hi8 here: goo.gl/xbIH1U
Torx #4 is required to open the tablet (one on each corner) and a plastic pry tool. Very easy to do if you're careful about it.
I cannot find a sngle seller of this panel...YET. Will just have to wait it out until they are listed on aliexpress.
*Watch in 2K or 4K for a sharper image!

    Is it possible to solder a diffrent wifi on the usb or replace the broadcom wifi? The internal Broadcom wifi does not WORK good. an external wifi dongle is far more stable. 2) Is it possible to solder a power charger intrance on this Chuwi Hi8, the battery drains down very fast.

    hi techtablets. can i replace this battery with my hi8 battery ? because the battery on my chuwi hi8 is bad if i play games like minecraft it will drink the battery like a juice. on minecraft gaming is 1.30 to 1.45 hours. so if i play games like modern combat 4\5 or dead trigger 2 the battery life is 1 hour so if i can replace this thanks for telling me.

    I bought the ChuWi Hi10, but it boots into EFI Shell instead of Windows reporting "map: Cannot find required map name". Looking at other problems people have with their gaming desktops, it might be a hard drive problem (like being disconnected or something). Would this be accessible or would it be soldered in or under the heat sink?

    Anyone know if removing the battery and powering off an external power supply is as simple as cutting the red and black wire that goes to the battery and connecting your own 3.7v source? I want to use this for a robot, not as an actual tablet.

    Excellent video! Is it really possible however to switch the cameras if I found the 5mpix sensor with the same port? Are there any drivers required to be installed? Does the camera software need to be reprogrammed? Or do the Android and Windows figure out by themselves which sensor the device is currently carrying? I'm sorry for a bunch of these questions but the fact that you can simply replace the cameras really intrigued me very much! Have an amazing day man! Looking forward to more content!

    What do you recommend to improve thermal dissipation on this tablet? it really gets hot when Wifi is On plus gaming.. particularly Sim City Buildit on android. Thinking of customizing the entire rear chassis with an aluminum or copper sheet and have the cooling pads directly on that. I bet that would be better than the stock plastic casing.

    İ was wondering if you could help. My chuwi hi8 is dead. It s giving me efi shell. I cant reinstall windows because there is not enough space in the eMMc. Since the tablet is not working i cant integrate windows and android eMMcs. So my question is this : Can i buy an eMMc and add it to the motherboard and install windows in that ?

    Is it possible to connect another speaker to this? Do I need additional drivers for it or it will just work? You didn't find a gps chip in the tablet, right?

  • @KingOfAllChunks

    KingOfAllChunks as much as I remember, the Vi8 super doal boot also had "GPS" mentioned on it's antenna when you opened it up. They're using the same motherboard for most of their tablets. So I guess that we should expect the same tab as this, but with GPS, 3G and stereo speakers? It would be exactly the same as the V89 but 1 inch smaller.

    KingOfAllChunks I'm not 100% sure but the chipset has intigrated Wifi,bluetooth,gps and glonass but might not be bios enabled. Personally I dont need gps in a tablet and i'm not going to rip it apat looking for answers if it has gps or not. It could be the aerial support gps and wifi, with only wifi being used. So its one or the other.
