Request BIOS update to allow USB Type-C charging adapter like Spectre 13.3

[nekomania]

I am a happy Spectre X2 owner and I truely hope this is going to happen!

Thanks!!! :catvery-happy:

Yes please. IAs I am regurarluy in places where there ismo electricity, I need the use of a powerbank. Now that is impossible.

Furthermore: I would like a less massive powercord.

Yes, that would be a great feature. It will allow use of USB-C docks for comfortable connection of tablet at office.

Is there any update on this issue?  The power issue is the only thing that is keeping me from using the Spectre X2 as I do not have room in my bag for all the different chargers.  I would whole heartedly like for the device to be unlocked with respect to the chargers or, at the very least, allow the user to select the option in the bios.  I am more than willing to take the risk.  

Thanks,

Good morning everyone, I put in a request for an update the prior week. The initial reply from the Case Manager, Cindy, mentioned she had not recently received a direct update, but would get one to me. I have not yet received an update from her, so just moments ago requested an update and an escalation for update. There is apparently a formal method of escalation if she is not responsive, which I will utiltize if I don't get an appropriate response this week.

Additionally, if the tune of her replies changes, and I get the sense that we won't be heard (i.e. this request will not get done), I will make posts in respective (e.g. tabletreview) forums informing folks that this request is going no where. So at least, folks know to stay away from this tablet/HP if they expect them to respond to customer feedback at all.

Thanks for your work. Indeed, I would not have bought this tablet, had I known that I would have to carry all the extras like  a bulky powercord, extra cords for my USBstick, for my HDMI etc. All together I could carry a normal laptop.

And then to know that there are solutions out there. If only the tablet could use them .....

It is good to warn people. I would have liked to be warned.

Please HP, allow us to charge the tablet using other USB C chargers

[DaemonGloom]

Any updates on that request?

Still silence?

Tired of waiting - now i am happy dell 7275 (9250)  owner with ability to use any rapid charger.

I think it is a good answer to HP silence 😉
