Nvidia Shield Gaming Tablet

Never ask you to send back meh?

Nvidia asked me to send back, Amazon never ask me to send back lol.

At the point where I purchase, I could choose the rate of 1.52 or pay in usd.

I read online that the Amazon currency converter is a ripoff, so I always paid in USD.

Yeah 1.52. Bought the controller, 128gb card, mini hdmi, official cover and the tablet itself. Set me back about $530.

Did you split the package? If not, you will need to factor in another 7% of GST.

Discount code intelli20 for 20% discount.

I have ordered an additional pc, I will be letting go the extra piece if I don't mess up my installation of the glass protector.

Whoever interested can PM me. The glass protector is not here yet though.

Charging is damn weird for me too. First time I charge using my PC's USB port... I think less than 5% charge OVERNIGHT.

From then on, I use a separate USB plug that plugs into a socket, much faster.

Using a USB port to charge has always been sucky. Direct plug is always better.

6 hrs charge is long.
it doesn't have quick charge right?
btw seeing some issues like batt drain due to cpu on marshmellow.. in forums.

waiting for OTA.

Nope, but then again, I don't stress the CPU much. Just watching videos and reading Marvel Unlimited.

But this is exceptionally sucky. I used to charge my Nexus 7 on the same USB port, never have this issue. Not sure if it's due to Marshmallow or some other issue.

PC USB gives out between 500mah - 1A at 5v. You're better off using a wall charger which charges at 2.1-2.4A at 5v. Those quick charge chargers can charge at 12v 1A.

Any newer Iphone or Samsung charger should have quick charge.

anyone can recommend a good multi charger device?

Aukey or Anker 5-6 port charger.
Can get either at Qoo10, Lazada or HWZ MO forum.

The stock charger which came with the original Shield Tab is 5.2v 2.1A which is good enough for me. Well, anything is faster than using a PC USB to charge. No harm using your stock chargers which comes with your Iphones/Samsung.
