[disappearance]

So frustrating, I feel your pain.

The left CTRL key snapped in half on mine after ~8 months. While under warranty, I was told I had to send the whole thing away, 2-4 weeks. That was difficult to accept. I've had to occasionally re Sellotape it since then.

Later the tablet battery stopped charging, then stopped being recognised altogether. This means the screen cannot be detached without sticking a pin into a vent. This requires power down and I imagine not good to do frequently. I read it is a manufacturing default that won't be fixed.

After much inner wrestling I replaced it with a Lenovo. It had a hardware issue early on, but they sent an engineer around to my private residence within a few days with a spare part to fix it. Night and Day.

Never again.
