The Bosch has a few more bits, fewer metric sockets but has some additional imperial sizes. The Bosch has no square bits while the Tork Craft has four. If you work on desktop PCs some of the imperial sockets might be useful as I think some cases still use some imperial nuts etc. You could always purchase extra bits like triangles etc. for both sets if required.

I don't have the Tork Craft so I don't know how the two sets compare in terms of build quality of the handle and whether there is any play on the shaft etc. Hopefully somebody else who has actually tested both sets can comment.

I was very impressed with the quality

Considred getting one myself but I'm too broke to replace my current ancient tablet.

That tablet is still horribly overpriced, compared to the Teclast M30 or T30 that can be imported from eg BangGood.

Neva had a teclast, at this point I prefer the west spying on me to the east.

Politically it's the west atm

Believe me you will be surprised who spies on you. Various country's governments work together and has "spying agreements" between them especially when it comes to criminal / terrorist activities. At any one time it is very easy to spy on any one individual.

Getting back to teclast being mentioned, back in 2016 I bought this one which got stolen and which I then replaced with this CHUWI - at the time it was on special for $169.
Bought both from gearbest and both is now discontinued, haven't had a look to see what models are good value for money at the moment.

Still very happy with my CHUWI though, what's great, the reason I also bought it at the time is because it being 2 in 1 i.e. being able to dual boot between windows 10 and android. Guess comparing the specs to what is available now there is a huge difference but it still performs fine for me and is all I need.

Edit: This Samsung vs e.g. Teclast tablet argument is pretty much the same argument as the smartphone Samsung Galaxy vs Xiaomi handsets argument, Xiaomi being good value for money. I for one am a big Xiaomi fanboy and when it comes to the MIUI and bloatware that comes preloaded (that can potentially "spy" on you?), well, you are free to load a custom ROM to get rid of it.

Agreed . It feels good to buy better equipment at a fraction of the competition's cost.

Also, if they are really very bored, they are welcome to spy on me if it helps. As long as they don't discover my Bat Cave, all is well

It'll have Full HD Netflix though...

You are welcome to pay the premium price just for FHD Netflix running in android if you have money that burns you. Who needs FHD netflix on a 10" screen anyways....

You can however install libreelec / coreelec on these chinese devices which will give you FHD netflix in the KODI environment. I am running FHD netflix on my S912 chinese tv box inside coreelec even though it only has Widevine L3
