Two New Reviews on TF701 - Asus Transformer TF701

Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF701T (Nvidia Tegra 4 Processor; 10.1-inch display) 12/5/2013 @ Singapore
Pros: High-resolution screen; thin and light; snappy performance; USB 3.0 connectivity.
Cons: No micro-USB port; ambient light sensor seems unable to adjust to the right brightness most of the time; audio output volume is too soft.

ASUS Transformer Pad TF701 Review 12/4/2013 @ UK
For those who need or want a laptop/netbook alternative but do not need Windows, and also want more capability than a Chromebook, then the TF701 could be the ideal solution for many. I really do believe I have found mine.

[Q] Slow performance when using MHL HDMI adapter

Yesterday I got an mhl adapter (a Samsung one).. however whenever the phone begins to display to HDMI, overall performance goes down to the point that any interaction with the phone lags pretty severely.. Has anyone else faced the same issue?

Yes I have.
You gotta remember, just how much more work the Note is having to do in order to render images on two displays at once when you have the MHL adapter hooked up. Both devices still have the exact same GPU in them, so you're asking the same hardware to do completely different work.
Example:
The SGS2's screen resolution is 800*480 on its own, so that's 38400 pixels, or 76800 pixels when the MHL adapter is hooked up (800*480)x2. So, even the SGS2, when rendering 76800 pixels while using the MHL adapter, is still less than what the Note renders on its own with just one screen (1280*800 = 1024000 pixels). So when you hook up the MHL adapter to the Note, and now all of a sudden the GPU is tasked with rendering 2048000 pixels, it's no wonder things start to bog down a bit...
That said, even 1080p video playback should be completely smooth, as video rendering uses a completely different engine.
So to sum up, SGS2 with MHL adapter = 76800 rendered pixels, which is less than the 1024000 rendered pixels on the Note without the MHL adapter attached (which is why it's so smooth on the SGS2). With the MHL adapter attached, the Note is having to render 2048000 pixels, which is really pushing the boundaries of what the Mali-400 is capable of.
Now about that i bought the mhl converter and i just put it on the phone without a hdmi and hooked the charger on it. I noticed the phone want even charging it was losing battery from 45% did go to 25%. Is this normal? The phone just pushes the images to mhl even without a second display to be connected to it?!?!?!?

This is due to how much processing power it takes to drive two displays at once. The phone is having to work exponentially harder, thus if the workload exceeds the power being provided by USB, it will make up the difference by drawing from the battery.
The Note's charger is 1 amp I believe. Try using the 2 amp charger from a galaxy tab instead. That should provide enough power to drive the Note on MHL, and still have enough left over for charging the battery.
I didn't notice any significant slow down when I used my mhl adaptor? I only played angry birds on my 55" plasma though, and I use it to play music. and i have a snidy chinese one not the official one.
Why is there no option to turn off mirroring on the phone. I hate having a movie playing on both screens, it is such a waste. Does ICS fix this??

The problem is that i didn't have a second display on the mhl it was only the charger but still phone was losing battery. It should recognize if another display is on it or not

I understand that the phone definitely has a lot to do, but I'm worried that my phone isn't functioning right.. Especially that it seems that there are other phones out there that don't face this problem.
If you take a look at the video in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19068253&postcount=1
And especially the part with the n64 gaming, it's clearly very smooth. Mine doesn't get anywhere near that.. The video, sound and input all lag/chop..
I was hoping to find if anyone else faced and solved this or a similar problem.. :s
Oh, and also of note is that my battery drains even while it's plugged in (but both displays are on), even though Samsung clearly states that the mhl adapter should charge the phone while in use...
It seems to me like it might be a performance issue on the phone side (I'm on stock). Any suggestions? (but preferably I'd rather not have to switch to a custom ROM, at least until a stable cyanogen mod gets released)
I don't understand why there is a 1080p output when it really laggy. Is there a way to make it 720p ?
I would assume the display lag when using an MHL - adapter should lessen a bit when ICS is released. After all, Gingerbread uses software to draw its graphics which is already in and of itself a slow process, not to mention when it has to draw two displays in software. ICS, on the other hand, can draw most things with hardware-acceleration and thus the impact on performance is much lower.
As somewhat anecdotal evidence I may offer you the fact that I have an Iconia Tab A500 which originally runs Honeycomb. Honeycomb doesn't support hardware-acceleration either, so the situation is similar. However, when I slapped an ICS ROM on it I saw a large performance-boost in almost all operations. The thing about A500 is that it also runs a dual-core CPU, has the same amount of RAM as Note, and has even the same screen-resolution.

That is not how it works.
When you plug in the mhl adapter it renders the phone screen resolution and the TV resolution. It doesn't simply double the resolution.
For example the sgs2 renders 2457600 pixels on a 1080p tv.
The note however would render 3097600 pixels in the same case.
There is higher load on the note, but nothing too extreme.

Is this safe to use on a regular basis? Does this mean if I use the Galaxy Tab charger for my Note that its battery will get charged faster? Is there any risk of fire/explosion or damage to the battery or phone if I use a charger with a higher amperage?
Simply put, MHL sucks! I'd like to strangle whoever came up with it. Bring on dedicated HDMI ports, even better HDMI with power capabilities.

Bump...
Does anyone know if this is safe to use? I can pick up a spare Galaxy Tab charger tomorrow, if it means I can replenish the Note's battery faster than it drains during HDMI hookup/output.

Ooooh, not heard of that before.
Keep us posted if you find one !!
The Asus Transformer series was designed to use a custom 40-pin connector to attach the keyboard dock, which house a battery pack.
The Nexus 7 was never designed with similar functionality, however that 40 pin connector on the Transformer is just a custom USB, so maybe a similar keyboard could designed to hook up to the mini-usb of the N7, although it wouldn't be as seamless as on the Transformer.

Any recommendations on smaller sized projectors to pair with Galaxy Note 2?

I'm curious to know what others out there are using. I'd love to be able to project my note 2 screen ontova wall and play games "wall-size!" Also, I've read in another area that you can attach speakers and projector tovthe samsung smart dock for a full multimedia experience; as the pico projectors volume capabilities are not up to par in most cases.
I'd love to know anybody elses viewpoint on the whole thing!
Cheers!!
from my note 2 you.
Following this closely. I've been looking for a pico projector myself.
My geekdar went off and I found this..... waiting for knowlage on this (googles with thunderous fury)
So about two months ago I bought the pico projector sold by Brookstone for $299.99. It's 85 lumens and is noticeably brighter than some of the other ones I've seen. It has HDMI input and has a USB power output so it can power up other devices, charge your phone, etc. Most importantly it can power up a MHL cable so it works directly with the Note II. It also has built-in speakers that, while not great in quality, are much louder than the ones in the Note II. It's very small and light and weighs almost nothing.
Here's a little YouTube review:
Link to Brookstone:

Link to the nice MHL cable: $14
http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/206665927.html
Note that the Note II uses a different MHL cable than the first Note, or older devices. It's the same as the cable for the SIII, with the 11-pin. That link there is for a cable that works and charges your phone too.

Awesome! Now im also wondering if theres some type of an accessory that allows the pico projector to be placed facing upwards towards ceiling with some type of clamp that holds the accessory in place such as the headboard of the bed for ceiling viewing pleasure. Not sure if itll work on popcorn ceilings though...

854x480 @~80 Lumens for the Brookstone
Vs.
640x360 @~20 Lumens for the Sammy
Let me think for a bit why I might not go for the Sammy
But the Brookstone is at least twice as big so are they even really competitive options? I think they're after different markets perhaps...

I noticed the differences as well. I'm not concerned about the size of the pico, so I'm leaning towards the Brookstone based on reviews that I've read.

Tf701t Mains Adapters

Hi guys,
I had more than one mains charging adapter for my TF700 as it was more convenient to leave one plugged in permanently on my desk and carry another around in my laptop bag for out of house charging.
Had a look around and can't find any charging adapters or usb cables available. Has anyone seen any anywhere?
I sent an email to Asus Shop and had the following response:
"Dear Owen,
Thank you for your interest to our e-shop
Unfortunately we don’t have this product in our shop but that does not mean this product in not available elsewhere. ASUS Shop is an outlet for refurbished ASUS tablets and notebooks – the range of accessories offered in our shop is rather limited.
You should be able to obtain this product from following Asusparts site. Or please contact ASUS Support Team for a list of retailers."
However, they don't list the TF701 yet
Damn Asus for changing the proprietary charger!!!
I remember from when the tf101 released, it took months before there was official acessories available from asus.
I dont expect to get a spare charger for a good couple of months.
I think if you already have a wall plug from your tf700, you could probably get away with just getting another tf701 USB cable and plugging it in to your TF700 wall plug.

Wall plug for the TF700 is identical so you can use it without a problem.
Problem is, there are currently no USB cables for the new, slightly smaller connector that the TF701t uses.

This one even comes with an adaptor for the tf700. I don't own one but it has a lot of favorable reviews. I have owned other batteries by the same company and never had a problem with them. There's also a switchable voltage external battery on amazon that claims its 12V setting works with Asus tablets. Search amazon for 12v external battery. Other sites probably carry them as well but I only buy from amazon because returns are so dang easy.

When the tf101 was my main tablet I bought a cheap in-car charger off ebay. The seller claimed the circuitry inside boosts the voltage to 15V (cars generally run on 12V). Here's what happended: The tablet did actually try to charge, and it indicated it did. But as the adapter was a fake (I teared it down to find a diode inside and 11.2V output voltage), the voltage was way too low. The power supply circuitry inside the tablet converts the 15V down to whatever it uses (the 15V will be chosen because that way the current can be kept low enough for standard usb connectors) but the input was too low, and it whined. What happened is, even while displaying that it's charging, the battery drained. This all makes sense.
So if I can provide some advice here: 12V was too low to charge a tf101. The tf701 can, if switched off, be charged off 5V. I'm pretty sure in the worst case you'll see behavior like on my tf101, but will be able to charge if switched off. This is valid for in-car chargers and backup batteries. I wouldn't go for less than 15V. What I use in my car is a variable voltage multi supply for notebooks and a original asus cable soldered to it.

I would imagine that it does, however if it does not then it will almost certainly support displaylink tech which uses a dock as the driver for video out, audio works too but you may not be able to charge whilst using it.
I've used this on the Oneplus 5 which did not have video out of any kind.
Docks can be a little pricey but so long as it states "Displaylink" Technology then it should work.
You will also need the app to get it to work.
Latency is on par with video out.

I would imagine that it does, however if it does not then it will almost certainly support displaylink tech which uses a dock as the driver for video out, audio works too but you may not be able to charge whilst using it.
I've used this on the Oneplus 5 which did not have video out of any kind.
Docks can be a little pricey but so long as it states "Displaylink" Technology then it should work.
You will also need the app to get it to work.

Does this phone support audio/video output through the usb-c port? What about the 7 pogo pins? Thanks!

The ZTE Nubia Red Magic 3 is not compatible with USB-C to HDMI adapters, at least for now, Nubia said that maybe they will add HDMI support in their next update but not sure... The only thing we can do is continue asking them to add HDMI support on their Red Magic facebook page
If they don't add it it's a shame for a gaming smartphone not to be compatible with HDMI adapters

If direct usb-c doesn't work then you could still use displayink
Same thing only it's more expensive, requires an app and it can't charge at the same time.

I think it also has more input lag than smartphones with direct usb-c support, just don't buy "flagship" smartphones without hdmi support they are not worth it, it should be a standard on high-end smartphones

That's not true at all..
I've got multiple videos on my channel proving that, theres also one in the OnePlus 5 forum too made by myself.
But I agree that Direct hdmi output food be standard

OnePlus 7 has direct HDMI output, it's way more easier and more possibilities than displaylink trick with OnePlus 5 or other "high-end" smartphones not compatible with HDMI

It allows charging . That's it and doesn't require an app?? Lol that is it pal..
I wasn't comparing them I was saying it's a possible solution if it didn't support it.

I agree it's still a better solution than wireless display solutions like chromecast or miracast or other slow and high input lag wireless display stuff for uncompatible smartphones, but I also have seen that DisplayLink consumes way more battery than direct HDMI
And displaylink adapters are also more expensive, but again still better than wireless connection :good:
What a failure phone. A pubg streamer bought this garbage and he is not able to connect it to elgato capture card. All of these chinese phones are GARBAGE just stay away from them if you want hdmi.
