I had one from D-Park. It wasn't made for Surface and was way too roomy. I bought the Waterfield Vertical sleevecase. It's a great sleeve. Highly recommend.

Has anyone successfully screen mirrored your Sp4 to Roku? When I try, it crashes my SP4. I don't know if it's the SP4, Win10 or the Roku.

I've had the Snugg case from the start. Good case but it's horizontal (can't charge easily in the case) and is oversized, so it doesn't fit in my Tumi messenger bag well. Amazon.com: Surface Pro 3 / 4 Case, Snugg™ - Leather Sleeve Case with Lifetime Guarantee (Brown) for Microsoft Surface Pro...

I agree, but it might be best to post that on a Microsoft web site and not a user forum.

To close this out - I believe the update over the weekend resolved this issue entirely. My Surface is now booting normally.

There appears to be a bug that impacts boot time/startup when the cover is folded back. Until it's fixed, the workaround is to make sure your keyboard isn't folded back behind the unit when pressing the power button.

Sorry to resurrect this but I have an update. I'm surprised that more people aren't complaining about this issue. I'm now on my 3rd SP4 and the issue continues - but has improved so the delay is only now about 30 seconds. In any case, I was informed via a Microsoft forum that there is a known...

I can't recommend the SP4 at this point. I've had a bunch of issues, starting with the fact that it takes about 2 minutes to boot if I have the keyboard connected. I also get the driver crash, periodic full crashes and the battery only lasts around 5 hours. Plus, the pen stopped opening...

I have the same issues. The button worked fine for OneNote and Cortana when the SP4 was new but it stopped working at some point.

I actually checked on the MS support site on this. The response was that SP2/SP1 covers don't work on SP4.

I really liked the handwriting recognition panel on Win8 but stopped using it on Win8.1/10 because they changed the interface. The panel is very small and the second line is worthless. More importantly, I can't figure out how to clear th writing for a new line. It's a big step backwards. Any...

Mine isn't on all the time, but it is very loud. I can barely hear the fan on the SP1.

To those of you saying these are Win10 issues, I disagree. It may be related to the hardware/drivers that MS chose to use on Win10, but I don't think it's Win10 at all. The SP4 is my 4th Win10 device (others are SP1, HP Envy (8.1 upgrade) and a $60 HP Steam that I bought from Woot with an Atom...

Thanks! This seems to have worked for me too.

Good question, no - I'm not using UEFI secure boot. That's new to me, I had to look it up :). Regarding virus scan, so far I've just left it with Windows Defender. I'm not loading any more software on it until these issues are resolved (or I decide to return the unit, which is a possibility...
