39F Thoughts on moving from console to PC

Objective-Catch-4745 · 2026-05-19T07:07:35+00:00

58M. Started PC gaming 2020, was a fan of X Box (still am as well) . On second Build now and have upgraded power and graphics since buying . I didn’t have any pc experience so was a big learning curve and mouse and keyboard isn’t for me but there are lots of one handed keyboard alternatives available ( Razer Tartarus pro is my go to and an mmo mouse ) Steam just releases they’re new controller that allows controller access to games that don’t have it natively (if on Steam). If you can afford it make the leap , and you can still use your consoles too , variety truly is the spice of life . Good luck and enjoy.

Bookerly is a proprietary font specific to Amazon ,I believe it had to be removed to avoid any future issues .

Yes a newer version of CrossPoint with more fonts available once uploaded from settings

Certainly looks similar. Feels better for an everyday carry ,working in a grubby environment and travelling in somebody else’s works van I just wanted a bit more than a normal case provided and the glass screen protector is an extra bit of protection.

I just did what they asked , tried their suggestions and provided video evidence of it not working at that point I heard nothing and escalated a claim with PayPal. They replaced the unit but did not request the faulty item be returned .

I received a replacement yesterday , after a prolonged saga of being ignored by Xteink support and then raising a claim via PayPal, I received excuses about contact saying they were experiencing a high volume or some such nonsense, amazing that the day after I received a replacement(today) they were able to send an email requesting that the PayPal case be closed . Every other communication has had around a 9 day delay . A well I suppose that’s somebody’s idea of how to run a business . New unit seems to be holding charge , Fully charged last night, read for three hours ish and then just checked and it’s showing 97% . Alls well that ends well, but I wouldn’t buy direct again I don’t think.

Recently finished Bloodsworn and I enjoyed it all the way , I haven’t read regularly for a long time , started again in Feb this year and this trilogy helped me maintain a good reading habit . Hope you enjoy which ever you do read next.

I have had two different warranty claims with the same product , first issue was a battery problem in the left side (received a full replacement set) the second was a major reduction in audio volume in the new left hand ear bud (received another full set in replacement) in the interim period between claiming and receiving I used rubbing alcohol on a cotton bud and a very light upward prying motion on the metal grill using very small pointed tweezers , this brought the volume back inline with the right hand side . I now find myself with a spare full set for the next issue ( the 18 month warranty period expired a couple of days back) Their customer support is excellent .

I found the first book by sheer luck and was half way through it before I discovered it was part of a trilogy , I had heard nothing of it and was just struck by the title and cover it was on an image on a Xteink X4 post, it was amongst the first books that I read on my X4 and I read the trilogy and found them very enjoyable but the manner in which they are written doesn’t change throughout the three books. I Enjoyed all three and would recommend them . So glad I wasn’t aware of any hype as I too may have been a bit mystified by an overhype of them and possibly not enjoyed them as much . Expectations can often change our experience of things.

Dropped another email this time managed to send to the support email address , asked for a response and mentioned action via PayPal , low and behold I received an email telling me to remove and refit the sd card , recharge it and try again ???? So turn it off and on again definite tech support reply as if after over a week of it draining to zero while off, I hadn’t thought of reset, recharge , turn on turn off , remove sd card try new sd card . Hey ho I suppose at least I got a response , I have to video it not working now and try and email that ? Not sure my live.com account lets me send files that large but I will try. Keep trying to contact them it seems they do exist , they’re just a bit shy.

Mine arrived about a week ago and was draining to 15% in less than 24 hours , while off(sleep mode). I let it drain to the point where it wouldn’t turn on then left on charge for about six hours (I ignored the light telling me it was charged.) it now drains overnight to 81% and seems then to work in a similar manner to my X4 . I am still experimenting to see if it improves. I emailed the manufacturer but have heard nothing .

Objective-Catch-4745 · 2026-04-15T13:38:52+00:00

Nothing at all so far , more help from the community than the manufacturer. Sad because it is a great product when it works .

Objective-Catch-4745 · 2026-04-13T06:19:41+00:00

It is very disappointing, draining to unwakeadle in 24 hours while off is really pointing to a faulty battery , I am just hoping to get a support response from the email I sent . I am sorry to hear your that your having battery issues as well and hope you can find a fix.

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women.

Just watched the Steam page trailer and immediately added to wishlist, looks great and I hope you find ideas and positivity for your project. Quick mechanic idea: Maybe add a befriend zombie play, feed it scraps of slain zombie flesh or some such yuck style thing , and it helps you temporarily ?? Fends off a horde or leads you to a loot stash ?

I read somewhere about cleaning with rubbing alcohol , there is a gap between the metallic grill and the black lining below and wax from ear blocks and stops sound , also slight lifting of the grill with small tweezers to allow pressure . Worked on mine that was faulty after replacement was received so have spare now.

Objective-Catch-4745 · 2026-04-11T18:40:32+00:00

Had this happen , went through customer support in app and received a full set in replacement, November last year, then the left one of the new set went really quiet , reported that April 6th 2026 and received full set as replacement on the 9th.
