Been using it for almost a month now:-
Pros 1) Fast and furious, I have the i7 Win Pro version. 2) Adequate battery life for me. I am not a gamer but I am able to use it for 5 hours non stop without charging, and the battery is still not fully depleted yet according to the battery indicator, which I don't know how accurate could that be. 3) Good color saturation from the 12" display. Cons 1) Hate those fingerprint on the screen. 2) No backlit keyboard, I am a night owl and hate to switch the light on when I work. 3) Active Pen execution could have been better and leave a lot to be desired. Please don't throw away your Wacom Intuos. Anyone can advise where can I get a screen protector and backlit keyboard for the Alpha 12? Your help is very appreciated.

QUOTE(thirumaran @ Jul 12 2016, 06:57 PM) Questions for you: 1) It's too heavy as a tablet. I rather use my iPad 2 if I want to read on bed.1) Is it comfortable to use as a tablet when reading say at bedtime? 2 Are there lots of fingerprints at the back when using as a tablet? 3) Hows the boot up time? I know its using SSD 4) How long is the warranty? Read in hardwarezone.sg that in Singapore it comes with 2 yrs international warranty 5) Where did you buy it and did you get any freebies? Im using Logitech K810 keyboard that comes with backlight with my Samsung Tab S2. However there is no trackpad. Im thinking of selling of my Tab S2 if this Acer is comfortable to use as a tablet for reading and watching movies 2) The back is okay. 3) Depending on what you are benchmarking against, for me it's fast enough. 4) 1 year. 5) Acer Shop at Mid Valley. They gave me a 3 years McAfee Internet Security. Hope this help! |

QUOTE(effectz @ Jul 13 2016, 10:15 PM) I haven't have a chance to test the Ethernet connection yet and I don't have a 4K display, therefore those are not being verify. HDMI to my TV working with no problem. USB ports working fine.I don't have a USB Type C charger and I have no intention to use it that way. J5 Create USB Type-C to HDMI & LAN Multi-HUB is quite well built in terms of quality and aesthetic. It's also not too expensive when compared to other multi-function hub. I consider it a good buy.

QUOTE(Zul_XT @ Jul 17 2016, 02:15 PM) Im looking for the VGA out adapter since I need to conect to a projector. For TV, I normally just uae the WiDi and mirror the display. You have to use the TV mirror function, like mirroring the android phone. Most of the projector in the market nowadays support HDMI-in. I don't Mirror my desktop during presentation. I usually just Extend the display so that I get multiple screens; I only shared what I need to share to the audience. Even when I am working at home, I will just extend my laptop to the TV and use it as my second display.Dis ypu bought it locally or online? What was the cost.. I bought it from All IT Hypermarket at Digital Mall, PJ. I am sure you will be able to find the same thing for a little bit cheaper from Lazada or Lelong. |
