Hardware manufacturer Linx has released a new tablet in the UK which comes with a little bit extra as standard.

The Linx Vision 8 Gaming Tablet (as some retailers are listing it, though the manufacturer just calls it the Linx Vision) is a Windows 10-powered tablet with an 8" display with 800x1280 resolution, Quad-Core Intel chipset, 2GB of RAM and 32GB of on-board storage. It's got all the usual stuff, such as a front and rear cameras, a mic, SD card slot, headphone socket, and a micro HDMI connector.

But it also contains a full Xbox One controller, built right into the very unit. Well, split into two parts and attached to the side, at least.

What this means is that if you're taking advantage of Xbox One to Windows 10 streaming (or just playing Windows 10 games, of course), you don't need to prop the device up while both hands are occupied by a standard controller. It's all there, much like if you were using a Wii U Gamepad.

We've yet to give the Linx Vision a spin, but the device has recently been launched in the UK and is available for around the £150 mark from a number of retailers. PC World has them in stock right now for £149.00 if the idea floats your boat.
