    This was bought to replace an old Lenovo tablet which was essentially too sluggish to cope with modern websites. kzread.infoUgkxz4qYZoyAOb_hq_UbaKI6AsZX0FnoFm-U This tablet is fast, has a very clear display with built in optional eye comfort shield, great sound with Dolby Atmos, split screen option and numerous tweaks that I've not yet explored. I've plugged a wireless receiver into the i/o socket to connect a mouse if I need it and a bluetooth keyboard works fine - unlike the Lenevo which somehow would often garble the input. Battery life seems good. In short I'm very pleased with it

    Hi.. just want to clarify.. as I am getting conflicting info.. will the little adapter power my WD My passport Ultra with a usb3 connection? It apparently requires 900mA and as I’m not tech savvy have no idea what that means. I’m hoping your recommended device works. Many thanks. Linda.

    Ok! Also, some of the hub devices out there come with an AC adapter, a power supply that gives the additional power needed by the hub itself. So would need one that supplies at least 900ma.

    This is such basic simple stuff. Computer 101. The real question is when powering an external device with your tab, which obviuosly drains the modest battery in the tab, and your usb port now is occupied by your hub, how do you keep the tab powered?

  • @tubernul

    @tubernul

    Жыл бұрын

    Right. It works, but cannot keep it running for very long. So in this scenario, one would not use the tab's cable to power the USB. Would need a hub that comes with its own AC adapter. Computer 102.

    I hear ya buddy! Yeah, would need to format to whatever format works for both the Tablet and your other devices. And to know ahead of time so as no need to format over good data. Tech evolved and companies make different standards over time. Unfortunately not even all the Microsoft formats are not all compatible.
