After opening it up I suspect it's the wifi card antenna...I'm no expert at all but the 2 antenna don't look very impressive, especially after seeing this:

I'm not good at electronics diy, but I'm tempted to buy new wifi antennas and install or if anyone know someone who's good with a soldering iron, please share details.

There was a wifi driver update a few days ago, new driver is 10.0.0.315, through windows update.

Also, try different router settings as some gadgets are more sensitive than others of course. I found 40mhz works well.

I hate the intel hd graphic card one.lousy when watching hd movies compared my ati radeon one

selling off my 3 month old switch 12, come with extra two year warranty from seng heng ...
any one interested ? reason for sale : i seriously hate the wifi ...

guy, any one facing this issue ?
after windows updatd, keyboard cannot use n bt disappear ...

I'm facing similar problems.
I think there are some driver stability issues.
Try and run the Windows Troubleshooter to fix issues.
There's some discussion in the official Acer support forums, but no solution.

i have to revert back to original .... shit, i hate acer firmware

now another issue, seem like acer is really bad on device.

after i revert back to old firmware/win8, everything work but i can't off my device cause once i off it update again and keyboard n bt missing .....
but accidentally teroff and update -> revert back to ori again ....

ter off again and now stuck and updating (19/22 for 6 hour already), i plugin in wall plug now and tomorrow some one from acer will kena kau kau ...

bro i recall a fix for screen flip or blind .... but i can't seem like find the solution now ...

Sorry, I don't recall.

is this acer switch 12 a recommended hybrid for under RM2k budget?

It depends on what you use it for. Light gaming , movies and normal work should be ok.. Light programming also ok..
I notice there are some users having drivers issues but i doesn't seems to have those mentioned issues
(lucky kua).
I'm on Windows 10, everything works ok except the privacy issues that most people are talking about.

Its a reasonable hybrid, but you should consider SP3 or SP3 pro as well..
Go to the shop.. and try it yourself.. see which one u comfortable with.

yeah, the main purpose is for ms office (researching and assignments), internet surfing, movie and light gaming.
Surface 3 the specs doesn't look good and pro 3 is over budget. My other options is Asus Transformer T00 Chi but I kinda like the unique Switch 12 design.

Tried before connect to TV via the HDMI? How's the picture?

It's good advice to go to a shop and try.
If you want a review, this is a good one:

It's an unusual design which suits me (I wished others copied the design).

It's very stable on the lap (and cool as the heat is behind the screen) and I like the keyboard and nipple after making it more sensitive. Acer actually replaced a keyboard I had as there was an issue and I'm scared if this happens out of warranty.

It's nice to put the screen on some books so that it is eye-level when working on a desk as the keyboard is detachable.

I have a similar use case as you and find performance to be fine.
Considerations for your use case could be screen size - you may prefer a bigger full hd screen?

Easy to open the case and update the ssd (but 128gb is enough). I didn't try updating the wifi card and/or antenna yet, but should be easy for someone familiar with these things.

Pen quality is good if you use it.

Can anyone update how the switch 12 is holding up after win 10 (and it's Nov update)? Has the above issues been resolved?
I'm tempted to buy this to replace my 6 yr old laptop. Primary use will be MS Office, browsing n media consumption only. I like that it can be a tablet and it's quite light, with support for active stylus.
Yeah, surface looks good... But, as someone already said before, SP3 is just too expensive.

Hi everyone,

I just bought an Acer Aspire Switch 12 in May. It was working nice, the notebooks discharged and then i plug it to charge, but i have no light indicator (âmbar light) and the tablet is not Power on, even connected to the charger.
I sent it to Acer here in Brazil and they told me that the problem is the motherboard, which needs to replace. It's very expensive to replace (around USD 600).
Since the tablet was working, the problem seems that, the Power is not entering in the tablet. Is there any way to try to charge the battery to test it? The charger is working fine.
