Nope I've had my surface pro 4 since November 2015 and it started happening this month. I even tried reinstalling windows onto the surface with a surface recovery drive but as soon as it got into the setup to create an account I could all ready see the touch animation in the top right corner. I...

I had the exact same problem got in touch with microsoft support and they tried fixing my surface because it would keep minimising all of the applications I had open. I could see the screen touching the minimise button itself and the only other way I could get around this was by deactivating the...

Leeshor he is trying to download the recovery file for his surface. This is available from this website: Download a recovery image for Microsoft Surface This will allow him to it put on a USB memory stick to reinstall windows and all of its drivers. But he can not download it because of his...

If you can provide me with your surface serial number I could download it from the Microsoft website and upload it to mega or Google drive if you wish.

You could also identify the cpu model through the task manager if you open the task manager and click on the performance tab then click on cpu it will give you all of the details of the cpu within the surface on the right hand side.

You don't really need to do that. Surface pro 4 has all of the buttons including power and volume on the top edge of the surface whereas the pro 3 has the power button on the top edge and the volume buttons are placed on the left edge. It also has the windows hello camera and ir emitter which...

Go into batterybar settings and change the critical warning percentage to something like 5 or 10 percent of battery. That should fix it

The speakers on the pro 4 are a huge improvement over the pro 3. The pro 4 speakers are much louder and there is some bass too to the extent of causing the pro 4 to vibrate considerably at full volume. Very good speakers in my opinion just right to listen to all sorts of music and also enjoyable...

Which version of the surface book do you have I've heard of the i7 model of the surface book has some power limit throttling due to it using more power than the battery can supply at max load so that could be the reason so both of the batteries are used together to provide the demand of the...

I don't have a surface book myself but have read in many places that the bases battery is used first then it switches over to the tablet portions battery the only issue is that let's say you use the tablet portion of the SB and it is now on 50 percent battery and you reconnect it to the keyboard...

Yep that's just how it is would be better if it could supply at least 2 amps that way we would only have to carry around one charger for a phone and the surface. Microsoft should make a charger that can output 2 amps for us to buy or maybe make an upgrade in the pro 5 charger.

Zkyevolved which surface charger do you have. I have the normal 36 watt charger and I am unable to charge my phone from it, I have the note 5 and when I plug it in it does charge the phone but it keeps switching on and off and it also does the same to the surface you can see the connector light...

Im not too sure about the 65w charger but the ones that come in the box with the pro 3 and pro 4 have always only been able to provide 5v at 1 amp through the usb i have never been able to charge my phones through that port because it simply cannot supply enough power to charge the surface and...

Yes the spectre does fulfil my needs but it would be better if the surface pro 4 had a better battery life and also my unit had some backlight bleed which shows up while watching videos. Ohh and I will admit the fans do start to ramp up quite often but it's bareable so not too bad and it never...

I allready have this done it does not make much difference I also did the on my pro 3 to reduce heat and fan noise it made a difference on the pro 3 not so much on the pro 4 the battery drain is the same for me no matter what. I also tried turning connected standby off and using the power saving...

That seems reasonable but knowing Microsoft they would take advantage of the users who really want the product. Here in the UK the type cover is about 109 pounds but seen as though I'm in college I got a discount so I ended up paying 99 pounds. My price range for the power cover would be about...

Let's hope these upcoming updates sometime next year can sort out the battery issues of the pro 4 becuase atm I am only getting about 4 to 5 hours out of it

If they did come out with one I would definitely be getting one as many others but I understand what your saying and you would have thought Microsoft to have made one becuase of the bad battery life on the pro 4 and also the decrease in battery size from the pro 3 which also was not that good in...

I think it might be better to leave the answer as no for the m3 surface pro 4 atm unless someone is willing to try it and report back on how it goes with the first gen anker battery and I'll remove the 2nd gen anker battery from the list

Or a better option which Microsoft should look at is to make a new power cover specifically for the surface pro 4.
