planning to get 1 RT... got a few question
1. is RT cause a lot of issue?
2. how is the app availability?
3. i remember it have no built in WMP, so need to dl WMP or 3rd party media player?
4. up to how big microsd expansion does it support?
5. is the accessory like screen protector easily available?
6. for those who purchase the RT from the student promotion, does the RT warranty cover by Microsoft M'sia?

Been surfing around reviews & youtube regarding the RT screen durability.
It definitely can't stand for a fall directly on screen.

What bothers me is how's the scratch resistance of the screen?
Some user feedback said its good and some are saying that it get scratched easily.
And most reviews doesn't state/test the screen resistance to scratch.
Hope I can get some users' feedback regarding this at here smile.gif . Thx.

y so bother about scratch? just put a screen protector then the scratch issue is gone... even it is gorilla glass still it can get scratch, so just apply a SP...

I guess I'm typical person if seeing some obvious tiny/hairline scratches on it when the screen is turned off  sweat.gif .
Don't really like SP, as sometimes it just bother me the clean looking of the original screen.

agree... since i hate SP full of oil smudge and finger print, but to be on the save side i still applied SP on my S4 and L925... tongue.gif

It depends on the App you use. In that sense, I'd say all.

so there is app to like real players?

In short, no. Developers still need to port/recompile normal Windows .exe apps (x86 architecture) to RT (ARM architecture). So most ported apps are open source apps where developers can get the codes and stuff to work on to compile their own RT version.

wat r those ported apps available?
