Hi SharkFiNbowl,

I'm on Hong Kong Island in Midlevels, orignally from Australia, so a bit of a kid in a candy store with all the cool gear you can get here! :woot:

Send me a PM if you've got any more questions :happy:

Hey vault, I'm around the wan chai/midlevels area too!

thats a nice rig u got there Vault..

i want one of those keyboards though, where did u get urs from and what are they called? do they have a specific name?

let me know, thanks mate :)

Hi the_JOHN,

yeah they are sweet little keyboards. They are made by Benq, which is the "Funky" peripherals arm of Acer. Anyway, the keyboard is quite tactile - very much like the IBM Thinkpads keyboard, though a little smaller. Light as well - probably about 100-150 grams.

You can have a look at the "Mini Buddy" keyboard here at Benq's European site. I'm using a Benq mouse as well and the quality is top notch.

elfangor nice to see there are a few Hong Kong people on the board. I'll drop you a PM.

Here's mine... I need a bigger desk. I've got so much stuff on the floor and my CD's are all in my night table. It's a mess. I wish I had space for a corner desk but I gotta get mine custom made meaning I gotta build it myself and I still haven't gotten around to doing it :p

how much did it cost u Vault as i cannot seem to find anywhere in the UK that sell them

Cheap as chips actually! Bought it on a trip to Singapore and cost me S$50 which would work out to be about 25 euros if that helps your conversion. It should be about half the cost of a basic MS Internet keyboard for reference.

I had a bit of a look and I can't find anyone in the UK who has it available online.:pinch: Probably your best bet would be to ring up BenQ and ask them. The keyboard on the UK site has a great big flashing "New" next to it, so perhaps stock hasn't gone through the channel yet.

Hope that helps you out ;)

    • You can use MCT to create an updated ISO and then use Rufus to create the bootable USB.
    • low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.
    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
