Yes, it shuts down all the time while in standby.
I've had my Ellipsis 10 since Black Friday. We got three of them, and of those, I believe mine is the only one doing that.
Not only does it shut down after anywhere from seconds to minutes of being in standby, there seems to be some yet to be known sequence of voodoo required to get it to reboot. Holding down the power button for several seconds, repeated pressing, all sorts of combos. Nothing works all the time, except plugging it in.
The first time this happened, I assumed it was low battery because it only came to life after plugging it in for a couple minutes. But once it did powered up, the battery was at 84 percent. So that theory went out the window. Plugging it in will always bring it to life. But sometimes just pressing and holding power for 10 or so seconds will do it.
On an unrelated not, I've also had a few apps that won't load on this device. One in particular, Game Of War, did load, and worked for over two weeks. But then suddenly it stopped loading. I uninstalled, and upon attempting to reinstall was told by Google Play that it couldn't be downloaded on that device. Either MZ changed something on their last updated, or it's the device. I'm just not sure. A couple of other apps I've used on other Android devices don't seem to work on this one either. So I'm leaning toward the device being the problem.
Reading all the posts here, I'm thinking this is just a defective unit and 'm going to have to get it swapped out.
