It sounds like there's a quality issue that Hims need to address as a matter of urgency. Certainly this would put me off buying their braille displays etc., Pity because in other most respects they far outshine the competition for variability of choice within their note-takers.

Subject: [access-uk] Braille display query on Hims products

I would like to take the opportunity to thank all those who contacted me off
list recently regarding the quality of Braille cells on their Hims products.
I had become aware that several dots on my U2 Mini, which is approximately
nine months old, were beginning to fade. It seemed random because they were
better on some occasions and less so on others. I wanted to know if others
were having an issue with their units, and I found comments very helpful.

I am happy to report that my machine is now back with me, having been away
for a month. The Braille display has been replaced on my U2 Mini, and is
now functioning perfectly again.

I do have concerns about the quality of Braille Cells Hims appear to be
using, and the stance they seem to adopt regarding any replacement under
warranty. Nevertheless, everything has been resolved to my satisfaction, so
thanks indeed to everyone who contacted me with their views and kind words
of support.

Kind Regards,

Jackie Brown
