I can't make the order at Qoo10 its so frustrating, I've chosen the options for controller/cover/charger but the "Model"'s drop-down list has nothing inside except a dotted line, why have a "Model" option when there is only one model for the Shield K1? If I leave it as "Please select" it refuse to process my order. Can anyone please help?

I ordered 1 set from EVTech at $305 and wanted to order the case but seems like all their accessories are all out of stock. In the end I bought a case from a 3rd party manufacturer at $26, the Nvidia case sold by another vendor is crazily priced at $95!

I'll try my Xiaomi or Sony tablet charger first.

Thanks bro, I found the $50 coupon liow :) Wasted I didn't use it for my Nvidia Shield but I made use of it to get 2 pcs of 200 GB MicroSD cards (strange can't find 256 GB ones). I still have another $20 coupon :) I thought can use both to hv $70 discount but can only use one, but doesn't matter.

Very glad to know that Android Marshmallow can use MicroSD cards as internal storage so having a 200 GB card really compliment the Nvidia Shield's meagre 16 GB internal memory storage.

At the Qoo10 main page, click on the "Cyber Monday" icon next to the Qoo10 logo. It'll bring you to the "Qoo10 Super Sale Cyber Monday" page and you will see 3 coupons for $5, $20 & $50 and just click on the respective "Grab" button. Still got time mai tu liow!

Please check through every seller/brand, the prices keep fluctuating! I found that Lazada got one seller sell MicroSD cards cheaper than the Qoo10 ones but too bad I couldn't find any discount coupons, so I ended up buying from Qoo10 instead. And please open your eyes, check whether its shipping from "US/Japan/China" or "Domestic" I didn't pay enough attention to that sigh...

I thought Nvidia cancelled their application to FCC for the Shield sequel in August? (someone posted a few pages back).

The irony is I bought it as its the cheapest 8" 1080p Tablet I could find lol (to replace my Sony Tablet which I accidentally damaged). I bought it for reading digital mags and browsing web, the fact that its good enough to play games and can stream games from my GTX PC were added bonuses. I mainly play games on PC, not handhelds.

Does anyone know where can I buy a screen protector since this is not a mainstream product in Singapore? I mean from a store where they can also help me apply. I know Lazada/Qoo10 have but I don't want to install it myself.

AFAIK, Nvidia will focusing on the Nintendo Switch for the foreseeable future. Even if they launched a sequel to this, it unlikely to be as cheap as the price now.

Film or Glass protector ? If glass protector, you only just need to align & apply it in a dust free environment. It's practically idiot proof and easier than film.
