              AnonD-182033, 07 Sep 2013I agree, It could have been a good device. But my experienc... moremake sure your already turning off gps bluetooth, wifi, and setting sync just checkmark app data only. and some good point is at the screen normal mode. and at last in mobile network setting select the 2G only, to check your battery stats temperature, estimated etc. goes to google play then download battery widget,

                Yes there is definitely something wrong. I unplugged my fonepad from charger just 2 hr back. Did three whatsapp messages and now its showing the battery to 80 %.
                No call, No FB. Nothing else. Just 3 text messages in 2 hrs and 20% power lost. Disgusting.

                      I agree, It could have been a good device. But my experience is not good. My biggest problem is that even when the device is not in use, the battery drains all the time. 15 to 20 % in an hour. Is it Normal?
                      I restored it to factory settings, uninstalled all apps too. Only using it for FB and light web surfing. But the battery wont last for a single day even. Confused.

                              It is official, im sending my fonepad for a refund which the problem with NO DISPLAY continues back! After getting the confidence from the customer service personnel that my fonepad will not have anymore problems, i return home with high hopes but after just 1 day using it, the problem still remains. This is a very POOR PRODUCT from Asus! Maybe i got one of the bad apple of the product but lesson for me is: I WILL NEVER BUY ANY PRODUCT FROM ASUS AGAIN! =(

But for game it is not supporting NFS shift since it show poor graphic on it but other game it player OK. It support rooting as I did it. But I failed to install my apps direct to the SD card I'm using 32gb without ejecting it self. I tested different player for multimedia including VLC but MX PLAYER it is very stable as you thought. Battery life its good as I observed. The model I'm using is New ASUS Fonepad ME371MG 16GB. The camera it work fine outdoor in bright light although it as some transparent dot once you zoom it. It can scan doc in a good way by using scanner apps.

                                        The Battery performance is too poor and it drains out too quickly. Despite of a very humble use I have to charge it 3 times a day.
                                        Telephony is not good and the incoming voice crashes after 2 to 3 minutes of calling.
                                        3 days back i got a message that a system update is available for stable performance, but when I press to UPDATE, nothing happened.
                                        Please tell if anyone knows about any update from the company to fix these issues.
                                        Please help.
