The Chuwi Hi9 Pro is shaping up to be one of the ideal tablets students, and cost-conscious buyers can get in the market. The device is set to launch at Gearbest soon with the 3 GB/ 32 GB model priced for only $169.99.

The suggested retail price alone makes it a tempting device to consider. However, most may end up being surprised by the special back-to-school promotion set from Aug. 6 to 12. During that period, customers can get extra savings on the tablet as they had the opportunity to get one for only $139.99, Gizmo China said.

Be reminded that the Chuwi Hi9 Pro is branded as a tablet best suited for students. Regardless, it does come with an impressive list of features that even the working class may consider getting. Up front, the tablet sports an 8.4-inch display screen (2560x1600 pixel resolution) complimented by a 2.5D glass that makes it comfortable to hold.

Under the hood, the Chuwi Hi9 Pro runs on an Helio X20 SoC backed by 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage (expandable up to 128 GB via microSD). It also comes with an 8 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front-facing selfie-shooter according to the details listed at the Chuwi website. Tasked to keep the tablet powered up is a 5,000 mAh battery, something that should be sufficient to last a day depending on how an owner uses it.

The Chuwi Hi9 Pro is the latest tablet from the China-based company established in 2004. The new player in the tablet market offers pretty good priced devices and has been taking the European and North American market by storm. It is best known for initially offering MP3 players before eventually expanding their niche.

While they have a vast array of products for purchase, Value Nomad lists down some of the recommended products under their wing. This includes the Chuwi H13 (tablet), Chuwi LapBook 15.6 and the Chuwi LapBook 12.3. If the Chuwi Hi9Pro proves to be a hit with consumers, it may likely be included in the list.

Despite being a relatively new name in the mix, Chuwi prides itself addressing an overlooked part of a business – providing support after sales. This service is offered by the company, meaning folks who end up buying any of their products will not be left hanging.

The spotlight is currently on the Chuwi Hi9 Pro, a device whose price has captured the attention of the cost-conscious consumer market. The tablet has promise, something that could come in handy for folks who prefer to functionality over brand-consciousness when it comes to buying gadgets.
