Asus Vivotab Note 8 Pen failure rate

I am a little more than 30 days with my hardware digitizer
replacement tablet.
So far, so good...

I agree, it has have something to do with the hardware, as
a rest, reload, re-install, etc are only temporary fixes.
The Self-Destruct is engaged upon your first digitizer failure.

When you send it in, write in big letters
PLEASE DO NOT JUST RESET/RELOAD
it will not fix your tablet.

 

Okay. Based on hearing hardware fixes seem to be working, I am diving back in.

Just placed my order with Best Buy in Canada which only got stock a couple weeks ago. Hopefully it's newer hardware.

Spent a good deal of the day reinstalling apps and updates. After installing the Wacom driver and 210 bios my heart sank when immediately after reboot the pen didn't register. However it came back a few seconds later during what I figure was my remaining startup services coming up.

At this point I am 6/10 confident. I found it interesting that the latest Wacom firmware was already installed. Unsure if that's because the replacement shipped that way, or whether the component that I had already upgraded was not part of the replacement they did at the repair centre. I'm still very miffed that they have Zero updates during those two weeks.

Time will tell.
