Customer Review

I have now only rumgeärgert with this unit nearly 1 1/2 years. In the time was the tablet 3 times, been at least 2 weeks, at Acer repair center without that even a problem ever solved.

The euphoria that arises when you unpack such a device and puts it into service, flew by - if I remember correctly - after a short time!

After the unit was the first week in operation, "burned" to display content that has been longer displayed in the same place (the Desktop Taskbar), visible and disturbing in the display, and were visible for an extended period as shadows. Although this faded progresses useful life, but is not acceptable for a device in this price for me - So off to the repair center.

After I then got back the device and the display, was, according to the attached repair confirmation, exchanged, this issue was first released - first!

After half a year I was again shadow on the screen. In addition, I had massive problems with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections after I updated to Windows 8.1:

- Wi-Fi connection often broke off and could disable only and activate to be restored
- After restarting the tablet no wireless connection could be established (WLAN off / on -> Connection)
- Mouse via Bluetooth in addition connected to the Bluetooth Keyboard -> a work was no longer possible. Everything jerky, keystrokes have been processed with time delay, as well as mouse movements!
- Adding a sound output device via Bluetooth -> The tablet hangs

2. Test for the Repair Center - 6 weeks later:
The display has been replaced again, Bluetooth and Wifi Adapter display no error - the system has been reset and all the necessary updates recorded - according Repair Center

Tablet started - Windows 8.0 (not 8.1 - So much for the updates). Ie manually recorded all updates installed Windows8.1 - display looks good, WiFi and Bluetooth strike continues -> 3rd attempt for the Repair Center ...

The same game again - this time an error in the WLAN and Bluetooth adapter has been diagnosed but not replaced, because "The error could not be traced." At this point I was without words and Amazon wrote my problem with the device and handed the repair protocols to support.

End of story: I am since then more than ever a fan of Amazon! The unit has been withdrawn, and the purchase price refunded!

If the device would work, it would have been perfect for my application. The tablet, combined with the keyboard and the associated shell could replace my laptop beautifully. Unfortunately, the technology did not play with
