Hope it is true and the heat issues are going to be resolved.

- This new batch has addressee the heat/throttling issues ?
Since some of our old buyers asked about this problem. We specially ask Teclast to test the device. Their lab test result is after 2 hours running 3D Mark, the tablet got only 43 degrees shell temperature. Under 45 degrees it won’t influence normal usage.
Some programs can detect the temperature but it’s instantaneous temperature of the Soc running which read from BIOS data. Intel has throttling system to protect the CPU. If the temperature gets too hot, the program will protect the tablet from damage. Since the tablet is equipped with stronger CPU and GPU, in some case the device can be hotter than older X98 Air series, especially with metal shell. Teclast has plan to work out a new BIOS to improve this.
