We are going to leave you another one today comparative with the two of the most interesting releases of another of the brands of chinese tablets that is doing the most popular in recent times, two Windows tablets with similar prices but with quite different strengths: Cube Mix Plus vs. Cube iWork 3XWhich one best suits what you are looking for?
Designer
To begin with, there is a quite important difference in the design section, which is that the Mix Plus It is more of a conventional 2 in 1, in which the keyboard is also the one that serves as a support, resulting in a device quite similar to a laptop when we have it attached, while the iWork 3X it follows more lines from the Surface, including a rear kickstand that allows it to stand upright on its own (though the keyboard is also fairly classic and not too similar to the Type Covers).
Dimensions
Another detail related to the external appearance to take into account when choosing between the two is that there is a quite notable difference in size (27,30 x 17,20 cm against 29,96 x 18,06 cm). Surprisingly, it does not run parallel to the difference in weight, which is much smaller (700 grams against 740 grams), but the Mix Plus it does have an important advantage also in thickness (8,5 mm against 1,2 mm).
Screen
The difference that we find in the dimension section reflects, above all, the size of their respective screens (10.1 inches against 12.3 inches), and it must be said that starting from this it actually seems quite small. The screen of the iWork 3XIn any case, it is not only noticeably larger, but it also uses the 3: 2 aspect ratio that we are used to seeing on high-end Windows tablets (the Mix Plus uses 16:10 typical of 10-inch tablets) and has a much higher resolution (1920 x 1200 against 2736 x 1824).
Unlimited
In the performance section, however, it is the Mix Plus the one that has the advantage, especially thanks to its processor Intel Core m3 seventh generation, which they accompany 4 GB RAM memory. It must be said that the iWork 3X at least it does not stay in the more limited Intel Atom either, but arrives with a Intel N3450 and also has 6 GB RAM memory.
Storage capacity
Absolute tie in the section of storage capacity, because both reach the 128 GB of internal memory, which is a quite respectable figure even for a Windows tablet (it is what the basic models of the high-end ones normally offer us), in addition to giving us the option to expand it externally through micro-SD.
Cameras
Although it is probably not the section that will interest us the most, it must be noted for those for whom the cameras on their tablet are really important that while with the Mix Plus we 5 SM in the back and 2 SM on the front, with iWork 3X We will only have the second, since Cube he decided with this model to completely dispense with what would normally be the main camera.
Autonomy
We saw in the dimensions section that the Mix Plus is noticeably thinner than iWork 3X but apparently this has been achieved, in part at least, by sacrificing quite a bit of battery capacity, which gives the second a resounding victory at this point (4300 mAh against 8500 mAh). It must be taken into account, however, that it is also true that with a much larger screen and with much higher resolution, it would be normal for its consumption to be also notably higher, so in the end the battle in terms of real autonomy remains still open.
Cube Mix Plus vs Cube iWork 3X: final balance of the comparison and price
In view of its technical specifications, and unless we are very clear that we need the extra power that comes with having an Intel Core 3, it seems that the iWork 3X It has many more attractive, because although its processor is inferior, having a larger screen will make it more comfortable to work with it and it is an important claim without a doubt to offer us the same resolution that the Surface Pro 4 has.
We can also allow ourselves to choose, purely based on which of the two best suits what we are looking for, because in price they will be very close: the Mix Plus can be found already for around 350 Euros and although the iWork 3X It was announced for a figure that would be lower than the exchange rate (about 300 euros). It is to be expected that after going through the importers it will stay quite close to the other. At the moment it still cannot be purchased, in any case, so we will have to wait to confirm it.
