I took off the default screen protector that came installed on the machine.  Replaced it with one I got from gearbest.  so far so good.

Have not really timed it but less than 3 hours I get a full charge on my Cube Mix Plus.  Same if I used the generic charger that came with it or the Anker via a USB C cable

Hope the dealer makes it right for you Ivan.  Ill make sure I dont over work the mix plus.

The Eve V is awesome!

Sad to hear this.  I’ve had my Cube Mix Plus for a few months now.  So far so good.  I do cycle the battery though i.e. charge when off and use until about 15% and charge again (off).  I use both the provided charger and an Anker 60W USB C wall charger.  So far no issues.

Anyone?  Thanks

That explains it.  Thanks Chris.

I use a Dell DA100 USB 3 to HDMI/VGA/Ethernet/USB 2 adapter to connect to a non-smart TV unit.  Works great.  I just hook it up via the micro USB3 cable and all is well.

I got a tempered glass screen protector from Gearbest for the Mix Plus.  Ordered it together with the tablet and keyboard.  Although I have not had the time to take off the pre-applied screen protector and have the tempered glass screen protector installed.

I notice the same heat when connecting devices to the keyboard’s USB

Yes and the unit became pretty hot.  Too hot on the upper left side of the tablet in fact.  And the trackpad also became a bit unresponsive when a device was connected to the keyboard’s USB port.

Hi Cri.  Ill do my best to provide a comparison.  Here it goes

1. Weight wise the surface pro 4 takes the cake.  It’s very light.  The mix plus is on the heavy side
2. Battery life the Mix Plus has a slight edge.  Note though that I use the Surface Pro 4 for work while the Mix Plus is mainly for my wife and serves as back up home PC for me.
3. Screen its a tie.  Both screens are good.  Just depends on one’s preference really.
4. Ease of use, very close as well.  The SP4 is very easy to turn on.  Just a short press powers it up while the mix plus’ power button requires a 3-5 sec press.  Keyboard, Ill go with the one on the mix plus as it has a better, sturdier feel to it.  The mix plus has type C which the SP4 sorely lacks.
5. Windows 10 on both devices are pretty stable.
6. The SP4 rarely heats up unlike the mix plus.  When i first used the mix plus to project to our TV via an HDMi adapter plugged into the keyboard’s USB 2 port, the unit became quite hot.  When i connected the HDMi adapter to the micro USB port it was not so hot anymore
7. Th SP4 i have has 8GB ram.  Honestly with normal work load not much difference between the SP4 and the Mix plus.  Pretty sure when a good number of applications are open and being used the benefits of more RAM will be felt.
8. Camera for both are decent.

Hope this helps

Yet

I will assume this is a “yes”.  Thanks Virgo.  Good to know that the long press to power on the unit is normal.
