The improvement is pretty much better on surface pro. RT i think not much improvement in hardware spec, just the kickstand . Well, Surface is actually a great product/innovation. It's just kinda lack of marketing strategy to make it popular/mainstream like other brands/products does.
i remember reading last 2 week ago it suppose to cost USD99... but cant seem to find the link, n not sure is it good or not... so asking for opinion here...
hmm thats about rm300-350. similar like laptop. how long will the warranty be extended ?
I have been waiting my RT bulk like more than a month, now feel kinda losing interest to it since i ady bought a window phone to get some sort of feel about it :/ .
My Father in Law just got RT Surface. I think its bad...very very bad...
No apps. If got also need to pay unlike iOS/Android where free quality apps are abundance.
Conclusion:- Surface RT is failed product. The only reason to buy RT is to surf net. But Nexus 10 is a better with same price.
Yea RT is failed to be an entertainment tablet with lot customizations like android does. However, RT is launched with main reason to target customers that want for light work and little entertainment. The microsoft office included are really helpful for students/workers at outstation.
I will consider that . I'm currently having hard time to decide either 1. transform my rig into small and portable to bring back hometown for gaming in my next holiday . or 2. just pay for the RT for video watching & surfing internet .
Anyone has solution to solve MicroSD not being detected? I have tried restart RT, shut down and install sd card, install sd card while its on but these methods aren't working on my RT
What card you using? I plan to buy one but no idea which to choose, was thinking the SanDisk 32GB.
I'm using the Sandisk Ultra 32gb Class10 one, bought from ipmart at RM77, if postage WM add RM5 EM add RM9 like that. Not sure the price is still same or not, I bought 2 pcs like one month ago coz takut price increases like lelong and garage sale .
I saw this selling at Harvey Norman at 88 ea. Thanks for the informations. Yes, you are right the Samsung one expensive and the performance not really different alot.
RM88 is slightly expensive, but it will be easier rma in case anything bad happen i guess. I have read an old review before regarding the class4 model of sandisk that outperform many class10 microsd, but can't remember what model it is.
Okay, using RT for awhile and I found out its a little bother me coz unable to close apps the way i want to. I need to bring up screen keyboard and carefully tap once on the apps without opening it and tap ctrl+w on screen keyboard to close partial of those apps. Some apps still need either keyboard/mouse to close them.
One more thing is the task manager isn't powerful as Win7 we normally encounter, the tasks are still running even u tap end task. However, the task manager still provides almost full range info regarding what's going on the RT.
Dragging your finger from top to bottom doesn't close it?
Okay, I finally got what u mean after searching youtube vids. Hope this helps who still dunno:
I try several of time and finally get it, somehow not as fast as shown in the video. Mine requires like slightly longer to hold it while dragging to close apps successfully.

All it takes is one smooth swipe from top to bottom yo. That video is misleading because he obviously wanted to prolong the duration. Ayam first time touch screen user and I could figured it out on the first day
Yea, one straight full swipe from top to bottom. I'm not so good with touch screen stuff, so need to dig a little more on it .
I'm still using a dumbphone and my pc is on win7 so I just fiddled around with the screen trying to figure out all the gestures and stuff. Did you know that you can activate the orientation lock by going to the charms bar (right->left), settings, click on the screen brightness button and then click on the tiny screen icon above the slider? It prevents the screen from turning even if you flip it upside down which is useful if you're trying to use it in bed
Lol, I dun even realize it until u told me there's my lock screen direction. Thx so much for the tips 😄
Agreed.. no need to shut down for surface rt. Just leave it.. usually I only charge my surface rt once or twice a week.. I'm not using SP at all.. when it get dirty and too many fingerprint I just clean it with LCD cleaner.. if ur finger are clean, then it's unlikely u will have fingerprint on ur screen even u touch it many times..
Same here, not using SP so far. However, RT screen really finger print magnet as compared to my Lumia phone that leaves less finger prints.
To anyone who's looking for something to handle coding of any sort, can check out Code Writer. Siverfire,Xirality
I read the description its similar as notepad++, can it make compilation? And I search through productivity and tool apps i found out most of them are quite pointless coz i can use built-in apps ady by typing command prompt and run, such as calc, mspaint and notepad for either coding, editing etc.
