Honlin PC1068

The ZHAOHUIXIN PC1068 has the worst CPU and RAM performance in our entire database, both sitting at the 0th percentile. It's a tiny, 1.28kg Android laptop that struggles to load a web page, with owners reporting 10 to 15-minute waits for Google. The only bright spot is its best-in-class compact size, making it a very portable, very slow machine that's hard to recommend at any price.

Performance is the PC1068's biggest hurdle, and it's a high one. The Allwinner A133 is a 4-core chip clocked at 1.8GHz, but it's built for basic tablets, not multitasking. With only 2GB of RAM, the system chokes the moment you ask it to do more than one thing. Owners report that even loading Google can take 10 to 15 minutes, which lines up with our data placing it at the absolute bottom of the charts. The ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU is in the 12th percentile, so don't even think about gaming. It scored a 1.9 out of 100 in our gaming tests. This machine is for typing notes and maybe reading an ebook, and even that will test your patience.

Stacked against a Lenovo Yoga 7 or a Dell Latitude 7420, the PC1068 isn't even in the same conversation. Those are full Windows laptops with powerful processors and high-res screens. A more direct, if still unfair, comparison is the NIMO N153 15.6", another budget-oriented machine. The NIMO gives you a bigger screen and likely a more usable keyboard, but the PC1068 fights back with its tiny, 1.28kg body. The real competitor is a cheap Android tablet with a keyboard case, which would offer a touch screen and likely a better display for a similar price. This ZHAOHUIXIN is a niche product that gets outclassed by almost everything else.

Value is a tricky word here. The price swings wildly from $119 to over $30,000 across vendors, which is frankly absurd. At the low end, you're getting a very cheap Android laptop that can handle a single, simple task at a time. At any price above that, it's a complete non-starter. If you can snag it for around $119, you're paying for extreme portability and not much else. Just know that the user sentiment score of 57/100 suggests most buyers feel they overpaid, even at the lower end.

Let's not dance around it: the ZHAOHUIXIN PC1068 lands in the 0th percentile for both CPU and RAM in our database. That's dead last. The Allwinner A133 chip and 2GB of DDR4 memory struggle to handle even a single browser tab without a serious wait. It's a 10.1-inch Android 12 netbook that looks the part but can't keep up with the script. On the flip side, it's in the 100th percentile for compactness, so if you need something tiny and cheap that technically turns on, this is it.

Almost everyone should skip this. If you need a machine for work, school, or even casual web browsing, the 0th-percentile performance will drive you up a wall. The poor screen and lack of a touch screen make it a bad choice for media consumption. The only potential user is someone who needs a dirt-cheap, ultra-portable typewriter for distraction-free writing, and even then, a used Chromebook is a vastly better tool for the job.

The ZHAOHUIXIN PC1068 is a data-backed disappointment for anyone but the most patient user with the simplest needs. Its performance is objectively the worst we've seen, and the user reviews back that up with stories of 15-minute load times. The only reason to buy this is if you absolutely need the smallest, cheapest Android laptop possible for a young child to type on, and you find it for the absolute minimum price. For everyone else, a used Chromebook or a budget tablet will run circles around it.
