Hey, what’s up? Sami here. So this is the Alldocube iWork GT tablet. Well, I wouldn’t say
it’s a tablet so much, because it’s powerful and practical enough to be a laptop. I‘ve been with it
for some weeks and here is my in-depth review. Should you get it? Let’s take a closer look.
Inside the box, we’ll find the 45W power adapter, a type c to type c cable, a multi-language user
manual, and of course, the iWork GT. Alldocube was kind enough to send me two types of keyboards,
though I’m not sure if these will be included when you are buying the tablet.
One is the keyboard with a touchpad, the other is a magnetic floating keyboard, which I really like!
I will get to these keyboards later. First, let’s check what’s special about the iWork GT.
Well, the first thing you will notice about the iWork GT is its design. There
are numerous ports on the tablet. You get two USB-C ports and a micro-HDMI on the left.
A USB-A port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a TF card slot on the right side. Both sides
feature a speaker and ventilation inlets. On the top, we have the power key and a volume
rocker. Beside that is the air exit vent. There is a fan dissipating the heat when we are doing
heavy tasks. As for the back, we have pogopin for the keyboard. The manufacturer’s brand name
is affixed in the middle, and Alldocube has placed some disposal instructions underneath.
There is a 5MP camera situated on the top right corner. It sounds not that compelling
but this is a tablet. We mainly use it for entertaining or light work. In my opinion,
as long as it’s clear enough to scan a QR code then I’m all good with it. Moving to the front,
we are greeted by a 10.95” 1200*2000 IPS touch display. As Alldocube told us it also
supports a stylus, that’s great, though I haven’t tried one. Overall, this is a really well-made
and premium tablet with rugged build quality. But how’s the performance? Let’s check it out.
Responsible for performance is the Intel Core i5 1135 G7 with iRIS, XE Graphics. That’s the same
processor that Microsoft uses for its Surface Pro 8. I ran the 3DMark, here is the result.
As we can see the average score is 1,267 and iWork GT got 1,410, which is above the average,
which is good. It seems iWork GT has optimized this very well considering this is a prototype.
I also tested a bunch of games there. I could play League of Legends smoothly,
as you can see the FPS is normally at around 40fps, that’s because I ran a screen recording
app in the background and it will consume some performance. If without this software I
can sometimes reach 60fps at high graphics and high framerate. But it would struggle a bit to
run other heavier games in high graphics, like GTA which I played. It’s still playable though.
To conclude, the iWork GT has one of the most powerful chips that Intel makes for thin and light
laptops. I think it’s enough for average users and probably more power than the typical tablet user
actually needs. I was regularly editing videos over 10 or 15 chrome tabs, a couple of different
apps, and even some streaming, it could handle it all decently, and the thermals feel fine,
all thanks to its powerful fan. So if you are just using it for light working,
like doing some Excel spreadsheets for your boss, writing scripts etc, this couldn’t be better.
Speaking of writing, I’ve got to mention the keyboard. The keyboard cover is made of plastic.
It’s not quite the experience you’ll get from a full-sized laptop,
but it’s manageable. However, I do hope it can be stiffer and sturdier, just feels a bit wobbly.
Whilst for the magnetic keyboard, it has a better design since
it props up the tablet, and I can adjust it to different angles. I love it.
For me I definitely recommend the Alldocube iWork GT. It’s got one of the most powerful processors
you can find in an ultra portable device, and it crams it into a beautiful chassis that’s
unbelievably light and thin. Compared to those big brands, let’s say the Surface Pro 8,
it costs only a fraction of it. Why not give it a try if you want such a powerful tablet? Right?
I know it has its downsides, like the camera performance or sound,
but these don’t make the iWork GT a bad device. It’s as thin and light as a tablet,
but with the power of a full-sized computer, and it’s not compromising too much on the performance.
Alright, that’s the video, if you are interested in this product,
