The Teclast X98 Pro is the successor to the popular X98 Air series, featuring an updated Intel Atom "Cherry Tail" X5 Z8500 Soc and 4GB of LPDDR3 1600 Mhz ram. The X98 Pro comes with Windows 10 and a 64GB eMMC.
Other specs included a retina 2048 x 1536 4:3 ratio IPS panel, Bluetooth 4.0, Wireless N and MicroSD card slot. The tablet will run Windows 10 64bit Home and there is later plans for a Teclast X98 Pro dual boot Android 5 and LTE 4G version.
The rest of the marketing hyped material talks about how it’s much faster than the older generation and it dual channel 4GB LPDDR3 1600Mhz ram. 150% faster GPU than the older models, it’s not really that much faster, but it will be faster for sure. Every else looks exactly the same as the X98 Air series.
Unfortunately there no microUSB 3.0 port. The Intel Atom Cherry Trail X5 Z8500 chipset supports it, but it seems a move on cost saving here to go with microUSB 2.0. Teclast are clearly using the same design as the X98 Air series, maybe even the same motherboard, which adding a micro USB 3.0 port would have meant modify the metal housing and a new motherboard layout.
No 3G or 4G sim card slot and no dual boot yet. http://www.tinydeal.com/buy-cheap-teclast-x98-pro-t-2363501.html
Power savings of the 14nm process, Teclast claim 8 hours of battery life.
