the tablet is cheap and was launched a few years ago, but they still sell it. because it boots from the SD card first, it makes a perfect candidate for this project.

Did you get it from AliExpress? If so can you post the link to the listing, because I'm not certain that you'll get the same CPU even for the model number.

I got it from Amazon DE. The listing said it had an RK3562. There are a few different listings with Android 13/14/15/16. I only bought two, one with Android 15 and one with Android 16, and both turned out to be the same hardware.

Can you post the Amazon DE links? Because none of the listings I see specify that processor.

Would like to try this out, but getting an incompatible machine would be a real bummer.

Edit: OK, I think the Android 15 is this one: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/DOOGEE-U10-Tablet-WiFi-128GB/dp/B... (Nov/Dec delivery)

I also saw the Android 13 version, but I haven’t tested that one, so I don’t know which hardware revision it uses.

On the units I tested, the board says: RK3562-v1.0 2024.06.28.

This is the listing I used, but it is currently out of stock:

It’s a great example and I have recently been thinking a lot that AI assistance maybe enable rapid porting progress and bringing life to recycled devices for 3rd world situations.

Linux can be trimmed way down and with an efficient stack on top can make many devices extremely useable.

Here is a related comment on user software side I made recently.
