BIG WARNING before you buy an Asus android devices

[dgcruzing]

I got to laugh..you think Samsung or Google are any better?.. We have a list of 60 people now who have brought the Nexus 10 and what a piece of crap that is..
Yup.. 16-24 months and the screen gets a big **** cloud over it..and that's what it looks like..dirty brown yellow tinge..
No matter you do..you are screwed..as both Google and Samsung are not going to fix it as it outs of warranty..
We have been fighting with them for 12 months now and nope..can't even buy a new screen as Samsung has not released any to market..

On that note..I just replaced a S6 phone after 12 months as it developed the same yellow tinge..and I wasn't going to wait around for it to get worst. Lucky they did a swop for a new one..but j can see that it's a common theme.. Hell..my old evo is still as bright as when I brought it 5 years ago..go figure..
Morel of the story.. They are all the same as each other..but it does pay to buy 1st party.. And not 2nd party,.. As at least then you have half a chance of getting some.life and or replacement out of your equipment..

Do a Google on the Win 10 tablets and the Dead tablets people have been getting.. I mean..dam..you pay all that money..and the bloody thing won't even turn on..

I bought an unlocked TF701T on ebay. It was unusable with lots of phantom touches. I chatted with Asus service and explicitly stated that the device was rooted and unlocked. They said it was under warranty and gave me an RMA number. A week after I shipped it the tablet came back repaired. I was quite pleased with their service.
Sorry, I know that's like gasoline on the fire if someone had a bad experience. But they did well and I have to give them credit.

You're lucky. I have bought a 2nd hand unlocked TF701 where the dock would not charge. No warranty at all, they wouldn't even look at it if I didn't pay 75 in advance for "research costs", which would come on top of the repair costs. So.... that was my last ASUS device ever.
