    As Tarbs says, if it's USB charging then really no need to include a charger. More environmentally friendly to not add another item like that (and keeps the box slim, reducing shipping costs, I suspect).

    Stylus would be handy. A screen cleaning cloth might be a nice addition. A basic cover / sleeve?

    I struggle to find a use for a tablet.
    I struggle to find a use for a windows based tablet - the media consumption software just isn't there and tablets are consumption devices....

    And at that price court is very much into the Surface go territory.

    Finally I do remember there was a company that used to be in this market sector (cheap windows based tablets) - my inability to find them tells me the market isn't there
    merely at clientco for the entertainment

      It was still visible and I object to it. The desk dosen't need cleaning.

          I think you are thinking of Link or Linx.
          These are very good.

              2 x USB-C. headphone sockets a hub will be provided. Wifi is currently 802.11ac
              I am using the one I am typing on as a bit of a replacement for my smaller Lenovo laptop and it is working very well.
              I have quite a few apps open (project, visio, word, excel, thunderbird, zoom, chrome and an internal app - a bit memory hungry!) and I am flipping between regularly and its running very sweetly indeed.

                    Well you started it with a threat you were offered a polite way out and didn't take it.

                      Ive had several window tablets and they are pretty crap. I have two surface books, 1 and 2. Never use them in tablet form.

                      I did briefly use the surface book 1 with onenote for taking notes but windows os doesnt lend itself to tablet form.

                      Im not your target market but if i was going to buy one a decent microfibre cloth would be a nice bonus.
