When I was growing up these were an absolute dream of mine. Today it's a Ferrari 488, when I was 14, it was SL's.

Replaced the broken sliding door cubby with the cupholder bit instead. The coin holder can't take £1 coins as they get stuck, and I'll likely never use it for cups either. On top of that, my phone is too wide to sit in there with a case on... Damn.

Toshiba Click 10.1" tablet/laptop. 1920x1200 IPS screen, up to 15 hours battery life (more like 11 real world). £110.

Could do with a 128gb microSD card for it, otherwise pretty happy.

Does it come with a free magnifying glass? That res is beyond impractical on Windows at that small a screen.

What is it - an Alfa Romeo or something?
Nothing ever functioned right on the one I had a long while ago either.

It really isn't, had your eyes checked recently.

Raikiri · 29 Jul 2016 at 22:03

It works fine, W10 scales stuff to whatever you choose. In tablet mode it's much more like an android tablet. It's like saying 1080p on my 5.5" phone is wildly impractical.

1 x Samsung 250gb SSD
2 x 3TB Toshiba HDD
1 x Icy Box Docking & Clone Station - very impressive.

My mobile phone is 1440p, so that doesn't make sense unfortunately.

Haha, you type some nonsense.

Windows doesn't scale, it has rudimentary zooming functions. So using a ridiculously high res on a tiny display is totally nonsensical. You gain no benefit from increased PPI density, because everything is simply smaller.

Yes and Android screen looks the same size regardless of PPI ...

Glaucus · 29 Jul 2016 at 22:18

Just lol.
Use 10 tablet all the time, guess what its fine.
Just like everyone else in here says, other than you, so who's talking rubbish?

I'm using it now and can read the rubbish you're posting in glorious 1920x1200 no problem.

You are clearly.

It's common knowledge DPI scaling in Windows is half-assed and doesn't work all across the board with many 3rd party apps being incompatible.

Ignorance is bliss. Enjoy your tacky fisherprice knockoff of a macbook air.

Ignorance? I've used loads of windows based tabs and having a higher res is by far preferable to a lower one.

Occasionally there might be a poorly optimised app (not that I have noticed yet), but for the most part it's a very clear, easy to use screen.

Sorry, but how is it a MBA rip off? Because it's silver?

Drollic · 29 Jul 2016 at 22:47

I try not to think about the cost (although it's gone up):

2StepSteve · 29 Jul 2016 at 22:47

A pair of currently the best unprotected 18650 cells, LG INR18650 MJ1 3500mAh 10A

Phantom 4 battery and Phantom 4 car charger

Peak Design Slide 2

New ball head with Arca Swiss mount to be compatible with the Peak Design strap

Memory cards, cheapo shutter release and 5DMKiii batteries, 77mm 3 stop ND filter and 77mm 6 stop ND filter

Think I'm ready for the trip to Canada

Whats the performance like though? I've got a similarly spec's Lenovo Yoga 300 and it's dreadful.

Fine, as long as you don't expect too much of it. For web browsing, watching videos, basic games, office etc. I've had no issues.

For £110 you won't get any better imo.
