Loving it more and more day by day!

Love the screen so much

...and keyboard (no backlight and no touchpad)...find it ok?

Sure, why not?

Good to hear...I hope to join the owner's club. ..

Thanks

I'm loving the pointing stick as most of the business laptop from IBM has the pointing stick

If you used some business laptop before, you will love the pointing stick

Too bad the price has increased to RM2399 from RM2299 due to the stupid 200MHz bump of the base frequency graphic card

Thanks to all those that contributed to the forum.

Just got it, the 'a' processor as I agree with you on the base frequency...I didn't see the need.

Loving the form factor, so much nicer to use than a clamshell and more flexible too. I'm used to a nipple-mouse too and I like the keyboard layout.

I didn't think an SP3 would work for me as it's not very stable on the lap etc, but this design just works everywhere. Handheld tablets should be maximum ipad size, otherwise they need a built in stand and this probably has the best designed stand.

The pen is really good for writing, great bonus.

I think they could've made the case more attractive though.

Why the micro-usb 3.0 port? Is anyone using it, how?

i use the USB 3.0 port, you need to have the micro-USB to Female-USB, or it is called USB3.0 OTG cable




Regarding the case, I love it so much as it has professional look and it looks like you are holding some documents file.

I am getting the similar case for my rMBP as well!

Yes, the fake leather case is very nice, I meant the case of the computer...I like black and I don't mind plastic but the edges are sharp...contrast with the new Dell Inspiron 11 3147 or 13inch version, they're much nicer (though shiny silver).

Is the dongle the only thing you can do with the micro-usb 3.0 port?

Interesting you need the rMBP as well as this...power user!

ah~ You mean the housing of the laptop. I like the matte black coz it won't have fingerprints!

It is not a dongle, it is a converter, you can put your USB devices with the OTG, such as pendrives, sensors, printers and all USB devices

I have a few laptops and I use the Switch 12 now for business presentation, it looks cool yet professional

Agree! But when there is sunlight it can get a bit reflective. Any solutions?

No backlight to me no issue. But no touchpad... I'm still trying to get used to the 'rubber'. Find it a little hard to move around.

By the way... uh... I suppose the orange light on the keyboard means low batt? Are we supposed to charge it or replace the batt (but given I only just bought it not long, a bit fast to be changing batt rite)? If charge the batt, how to charge? I been charging the laptop with the keyboard plugged in ah.

...With Apple's release, it would've been good if the micro usb 3.0 was usb c.

Anyone see something like this for micro usb 3.0?

(Not regretting the switch 12 though, so much more than the new macbook, even if it was the same price)

You mean new Switch 12's IGP runs at higher speed?
What is the read/writ speed of factory shipped Lite-On SSD?

To all,

How good is the pen? Is it very precise or a normal pen for capacitive screen?

Am quite frustrated with my current windows tablet because when using desktop app very difficult with small icon and slides etc.

Yes, the first batch of Switch 12 at RM2299 is running on M-5Y10a and the second batch of Switch at RM2399 running on M-5Y10c

Both M-5Y10a and M-5Y10c has the base frequency of processor of 0.8GHz with Turbo Boost up to 2.0GHz

GPU Core frequency of M-5Y10a is 100MHz and M-5Y10c is 300MHz and both up to 800MHz

May I know the read/write speed of Lite-On SSD?

On paper, the 128GB is up to 520MB/s read and up to 150MB/s write for sequential

Ok, thanks.
