The i7 Book arrived and it’s lovely!

 

But – it really gets way too hot, even without super taxing uses (video playback, general browsing). So I’m definitely looking on the thermal mod.  I’ll try to find a suitable thermal pad to apply on top of the stock metal cooler and see if I manage to have improvements. I don’t hold the tablet with my hands so I suppose it’s not a big deal if it gets hot on the back.

Hey, I bought the AUKEY USB C Hub with 4 USB 3.0 Ports + 1 HDMI Port + Type-C Input Charging Port and it doesn’t seem to work for me. The video looks fine but the audio doesn’t seem to work and I don’t know what should I do. Should it just work out of the box? In this case, my unit is faulty.

Hey David. Chris tested a couple of them in the youtube channel.

 

 

About your “hub or adapter” question. I’ve been wondering about this too. In the end I believe I will buy the hub for the power delivery function. But you also could just charge the tablet beforehand or keep the DC charger on. It’s up to you man, but these two products both work with the cube i7 book. You could buy one of these or just buy another product from amazon, check if it works and return it if it doesn’t. Cheers.

 

I have a question myself: When connecting the tablet via HDMI, can I shut down the tablet screen and use it via the external monitor?

Alright man, let me know if you can. I’m waiting for the i7 book in the mail 🙂

Hello guys, first post here. Congratz about this website/youtube channel, you are great.

So I’m thinking about purchasing this one, even if I don’t need at all the stylus support it seems a killer device. I plan to do light gaming on it (League of legends) so I’m already looking about the thermal mod.

So, it seems that the initial setup (1mm thick copper shim + 1mm thick cooling pad) it’s pushing the device too much and causing screens problem, right? Which one option would be optimal?

A) 0.5mm thick copper shim + 0.5mm thick cooling pad

B) 1mm thick copper shim, no cooling pad

C) 1mm thick cooling pad, no copper shim

 

Thank you guys.
