I like the look of the uconsole but want to know if there are any alternatives with similar form factor. I want to get a protabel Linux machine

    Recently I became aware of ‘StarLite’ tablets – the prices are pretty steep, but the specs look really good, esp. wrt the screen.

        Maybe it’s not on sale everywhere, but it’s the same price as a 256GB Pixel Tablet for twice the RAM, twice the storage, and full Linux instead of Android.

        Tablets are traditionally a closed design, with the OS tightly locked down. Even if that price were high, which I’d challenge it’s not aside from the CPU choice (probably by necessity), there’s bound to be a bit of a premium for early devices to a niche market.

      Starlabs look cool. Their own hardware, coreboot, Linux out of the box, UK company. Planning to get one of their laptops when I’m done with my current one.
