I bought one from Ebay for €200, it's a fine Android 9 tablet for everything except video, away from the glider I have connected to my Huawei Mate 20x via BT, in the glider I have it connected to my Flarm via BT
Runs LK8000 a treat, this screen shot was taken at around 11:00 on a gin clear day with the sun directly on the screen

Nice! Is the screen glossy or matte? How long does the battery last with lk8000 running?

The screen is matt
I don't know, it's never run out of battery, even after 48 hours with the front light on!!! |

I just bought a second HiSense A7, the first is running XCTrack, the 2nd was intended to use with XCSoar or LK8000.
XCSoar runs perfectly fine without any configuration.
LK8000:
- I can launch it - the "profile" menu works - "exit" works ;-) - "fly" or "sim" lead to a black screen after "initialising display".
In RUNTIME.log, I find the following lines:
[000149815] . Starting LK8000 v7.2.1 Dec 16 2020 LINUX [000149815] . System Name: Linux localhost [000149815] . Kernel Version: 4.14.133 [000149815] .

The last line looks "interesting".
Any idea?
Where could I download older versions to try? This device does not have Google Play Store, I need the APK directly. |

Further to Slople above, here is a comparison between the 6" Onyx Boox Poke 2 Colour screen and the 6.7" HiSense A7CC screen. The A7CC has a clear case so looks bigger than it really is, it is a 5G mid range smart phone with an 1800x900 pixel E-Ink screen.
The Poke 2 has better colour but the A7CC is way way faster, you can even watch videos on it in 'speed' mode, it also has it's own GPS but sadly, no barometer. The A7CC is a perfectly good phone, ereader and soaring instrument, Christmas has come early :-)

I bought a Hisense A5 Pro CC and it looks similar to Fat Albert's image of the A7. It runs LK8000 for more than 9 hours from the internal battery. But it has no Google Services so it isn't suitable as a general device for me. If anybody is interested...

The aspect ratio of the Boox seems much better IMO, I find that telephones are too stretched for LK8000.
Unfortunately the Boox Poke 2 Colour is out of production, at the moment the only tablet with color e-ink is the BOOX Nova Air C but it may be too big for a glider cockpit. :-( |

I've been using an OPPO A53 (android phone 500nits) for a years so. I just added an OPPO A96 (android phone 500 nits) I will run CU on the old A53 so I can get voice flarm alerts, and LK on the new A96, both mount on the canopy rail.
I just purchased a lenovo M8 GEN2 (android 300nits 8") to be mounted in the instrument panel. Initial test in full sun are great. We'll se what happens in a 60 deg cockpit in summer.
All 3 have at least 8hr run on full charge. |
