I thought D-Fusion is selling the screen protector (2pc/pkg) at RM50 ?

For casing, maybe can try here ...

Hmm..didn't notice DFusion had it

I ordered the crunch cover from Lazada, it says it arrived in their ware house already so hopefully I can get it next week.

i'm waiting for the asus as well ..
yup.. i think digitizer is a must for tablet with "desktop" based OS.. choosing the wrong options when doing system administration tasks can be disastrous...

Digitizer... damn... damn... damn... I don't think my wife would approve of that tongue.gif

Got mine for about a week now.

Ditching my 2 months old ipad mini and slowly replacing my MBA as my mobile workstation. Problem is, keyboard still not available.

Check if the pad works with an Android device if you have any?
*
shouldn't the pad just report itself as a mouse and if Android has the ability to display a mouse cursor it should just work? Or does Android not work like that?

Yeah, that's a known issue, not sure why yet, sometimes it happens often, sometimes it might be ok for a long time..

Got my crunch cover from Lazada.

Good
- Simple one piece cover + stand that doesn't add much bulk

Con
- in order to be able to fold, the front cover actually feels flimsy
- there weren't any real instructions on how to fold it... just 3 icons on the box...
- Gets in the way of holding it up in portrait mode and typing on the keyboard.

I did not encounter this problem.

anyway, try below

turn off panel auto refresh
Desktop - right click - graphic properties - power - Turn off monitor energy saving

try this 2 setting (device not at my site now, above path may not be correct)
*
there's a display power saving under what you mentioned. Interesting.. but I have a theory that the flickering only occurs at low brightness, so let me try out some more first.

Wow, I just found out a weakness of these tiny Rapoo keyboard. The lightweight construction really means flimsy material. My stupid 1.5 years old son step on it and it did bent slightly. Luckily he did not step it on the floor, otherwise the bending would be worse. Managed to bend it back to normal... Looks like I cant place it everywhere after I used it.
*
1.5 years old isn't stupid lar, they just don't know any better. I nearly died when my son stepped on the W5 when he was 1.5 years old as well! tongue.gif

Anyway, it's likely that it's just a membrane keyboard so there's no real circuitry to break, it's only the frame that's bent.

The perils of being a middleman service, they don't actually know how much the stock actually is.

Another important note is, in tech specs they spell out that sdcard max 32gb.

My 64gb kingston works perfectly
*
Yeah, the size issue seems to be more of an OS limitation when it comes to appliances like Android tablets, no problem when we're using a full PC wink.gif

My first son already knew all my items are prohibited when he was 1.5 years old.  Just this 2nd one a bit barbarian. May be need some manners lessons. Always step my gadgets and very fond to abuse the home button on my ipad and wife's iPhone.

Feel like my hands could use some exercises.

Off topic now tongue.gif

How many kids do you have? Just 2? Word of advice from one father to another, how kids grow up differs even if they are brothers, even if you've been teaching them and taking care of them in the exact same way. So don't assume because one is like that the other also the same?

Ok.. back to normal scheduled programming

bought a w3 keyboard just now. connects fine and feels more like a laptop/netbook now.

problem is, keyboard not connecting upon waking up. have to disable/enable bluetooth on w4.

any idea why?

Hmm... all BT keyboards I've used all are 'attached' to the device one. Never had to toggle BT, just press some keys on the keyboard and it connects automatically.

My w4 power drop 23% over 10 hours .
Is that normal ?

Seems to be an issue with the 3740 series, cause even the Toshiba Encore reviews says that in connected standby mode it's dropping too rapidly.

As a comparison, my Dell venue Pro 8 lost 5%... in almost 16 hours worth of standby.

For anyone who wants to compare the Dell Venue 8 Pro against the Acer W4, check out the comparison videos I made.

i simply test the game risk of rain, its running 60fps.........not the 15fps you tested

something wrong with your machine

w4 and DV8P in same spec, wont you feel wired it running so much diff?
*
Yes, it did feel weird. Maybe it's the game then? But the settings are the same.. After all, during the Walking Dead it seemed fine.

You didn't see the video I posted on top? The W4 and all other portrait default Windows tablets won't be able to support Spartan Assault until they fix their code.

Wah.. so funny.. put a * beside the price, but never put what the * means. Probably terms and conditions apply.
