One of the major features of Microsoft's Surface tablet, apart from
the new operating system, is its key accessory, the Touch Cover, which
features an integrated keyboard. However, early adopters of the tablet
who have this accessory are facing some issues with the Touch Cover
where it splits at the seams, exposing some of its internal wiring in
the process.
A report by The Guardian states that early users of the
Touch Cover of Microsoft's Surface tablet say one of the edges that
magnetically connect to the device split at the seam, and this case has
been witnessed by a number of users a few days after they started using
it.
The report states that it is unclear whether the problems that
people have encountered are due to a faulty batch or are a subtle
problem that will become more apparent as more people use it for longer.
The fact that users in the US and the UK have reported the problem
suggests that it is not isolated to a single manufacturing batch.
The report notes that Microsoft appears to be addressing this issue by
offering replacements for these covers at no extra cost. However, with
the Surface tablet aiming to make a mark for itself in the tablet
segment, this may deter buyers from purchasing this accessory that can
come in extremely handy while using this slate.
