DIY Tablet

Re: Explore unlimited possibilities - Coolpi 8-inch touchscreen

I would like to build a tablet using the Cm5 core board and v2 carrier board used in the CM5 laptop. I have the 14in CM5 laptop and am very pleased with its stablity as a daily-driver. Shrinking it down to an 8 or 10in tablet form-factor would be ideal. I've got the touchscreen and boards in my cart on Aliexpress and am ready to pull the trigger pending any feedback on the following potential concerns:

Heat management (low profile heatsink/fan like the laptop?)
Structural rigidity (PLA 3D print case?)
Hardware buttons (power, volume, brightness, etc)
5G Cellular Modem possibilty

Any insights/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
