microsoft products mostly pakai buang punya, damn cibai, same like apple devices, want to change battery also need like 50 steps and damn hard to disassemble the surface pro, my SP6 also facing same issue as u, battery degraded, and the type cover also degraded

but have to admit their products really give premium feeling

i am awaiting Snapdragon + Chrome OS + SSD + Tablet
later window can bye bye.
mana boleh tahan carry 1.2kg laptop hari hari.

Again, this doesn’t make it not compatible

android tablet hard to do multitasking. chrome OS good for multitasking.

imagine tablet with 11 inch , 8GB Ram , 256gb SSD , snapdragon 7c with Chrome OS.

This didn’t make ChromeOS better compatible to windows > macOS

That's what do you call this as? Unsupported boleh? I know I will not have problems plugging in an off the shelf hdd used between windows, chrome os and even android.

Not true yea. MacOS can read FAT and EXFAT and NTFS

Surface tablet is exist fyi

That is true. I use Chrome OS as well. May not be to everyone's liking.

I cite and example. But it is just an example. If everyone just use browser and Ms apps like word, excel, then no difference. But there are little obstacles here and there  once you delve deeper.

Well it is based on use case. But if I can point this out, as I  have encountered this problem.

If you read it between an app or even network, yes.

But Mac os cannot read directly from ntfs formatted drive like an external drive.

Exfat is the best method for Mac os/ win compatibility.

You can try pick a random usb hard drive from anyone not using Mac, and chances are you can't see what's in it.

That's why no need to buy new. Buy scraps and fix them yourself. Buy 2 if possible for parts. New parts from AliExpress need to wait up to 3 weeks to arrive. Sometimes lucky, the new parts are much better quality than the existing ones. An example is the X230 backlit keyboard from AliExpress. Paid 150 bucks for it but the quality and typing experience is like heaven. Worse unlucky will be the T420 body parts. Came in a smashed box and all parts were broken inside. Got a full refund and decided to buy another broken T420 for 100 bucks to harvest the body parts instead.

My latest acquisition is the Latitude 5289 2-in-1 tablet/laptop. Unlike the Surface Pro, this model can upgrade the SSD, WiFi, 4G cards, and battery easily. All easily done by removing 6 screws and 6 clips. Parts are also cheap even on Shopee. Mine is so far ok and even came with a 4G card inside. Pop a Yoodo SIM card and it is now a mobile hotspot for all the other laptops. Might turn it into a public honeypot hotspot where everyone connects to it and I sniff out their traffic packets for fun.

you should mentioned MS DOS and MacOS difference instead

If you read it between an app or even network, yes.

But Mac os cannot read directly from ntfs formatted drive like an external drive.

i want 500-600gram tablet with OS interfaces like Windows.
Chrome OS is the anwser

Acer Store at United State already avaiable chromebook at i5 / i7 with Intel 12 gen.
-come wth 8GB or 16GB Ram
- SSD somemore.
- not avaiable in Malaysia



-Chrome OS as a tablet .
-Use Snapdragon chip.
- only 64GB or 128GB Emcc
- harga murah giler.

macOS can read NTFS but cannot natively write on it.
need 3rd party app to enable NTFS write.

need to use exFAT for compatibility with other(almost all) device.
haip. die2 need to go to apple ecosystem la.
