I am also having issues with the SB i7 256 and a Dell 3415. All looks great when duplicating the screens but as soon as I select only the Dell monitor the screen flips 180 degrees. I checked the settings and all looks correct. It is set on landscape, 3440x1440 resolution. Is it the dock...

So far my track pad has not frozen. It is not 100% responsive which I hope will be resolved in future updates. My system did freeze which required a power down via the power button for 30 seconds. It occurred while renaming my computer. Just froze half way through typing the new name. The...

The SB can use a better rubber pad on the bottom. Seems to slide around easily on my wood desk and granite kitchen island. The good news is the screen does not move while typing on a hard surface. When I travel next week, I will be sure to put it to the test. It really feel solid. Plus I...

I also have been able to use the SP3 on my lap (6'2" 250). SB seems better to me in terms of lapability. The wobble is a concern. I will not be able to know if the wobble is a deal breaker until I travel via train or plane next week. So far The device is a keeper. Will be selling my SP3...

i7 256 w/ GPU. Haven't even booted it up yet but here are two unboxing pics.....

Just brought mine home from the MS Store. Details and mini review to follow later this evening.

Was able to play with the SB this morning at the Paramus NJ MS Store. The device is beautiful and slimmer than I thought. However, even the store rep could not believe how much wobble there was. I really hope someone makes a nice sleeve for the top of the device with a kickstand to prevent...

I got very lucky this morning. The Paramus NJ MS Store opened at 9. The folks there said only pre-orders would be handed out and any leftovers could be sold. The unit I wanted, i5 256 w/ GPU, was MIA but a woman who ordered online for store pick up made an error and thought she ordered the...

Even though my backpack has padding, I am also slightly concerned about pressure / stress failure due to uneven exposure to a loaded bag falling and impacting the SB. On topic but...... What about the wobble while on a plane or train? It appears some of the reviewers showed concern when trying...

Thank you all for your replies and suggestions. I like the upside-down V idea a lot. I will try it and report back. I hope the new dock allows for the external monitor to turn on from the computer's sleep mode or restart. The current docking station with SP3 always needs a monitor power...

I currently have a SP3 with the MS docking station and two monitors / keyboard and mouse. On my home office desk, the SP3 sits beautifully in the dock, taking up little to no room on my desk. Now that I am expecting to upgrade to the Surface Book and new dock, how will the Surface book need to...

Do you miss the extra width of the two 24" screens?

Good morning. Have been using two Dell 2414 monitors with my docked SP3 i5 256. Have the usual issues with the two monitor extended desktop setup. So, I was thinking about selling both monitors and replacing them with one Dell 34" curved monitor. I may lose a little real estate but if the...

Thank you. Let's hope they fix it soon.

I just learned it will allow me to print doc and xls files but not PDFs. Is there an option I need to turn on to enable PDF printing from File Explorer? Thank you.

Searched Google and could not find an answer to this seemingly easy to fix problem. In File Explorer (Windows 10 on SP3 i5 256), the option to print (printer icon) selected files is greyed out. Right click is missing the option as well. In device manager, the correct printer is selected as...

Haven't downloaded the new Intel driver yet however the displays seem to be working now without having to power cycle my monitors.

Was the driver updated via Win update or direct from Intel download site?

I also had similar problems as Krague17. Prior to the upgrade I would have to power down both Dell 2414 monitors to get them to work properly. Post Win 10 upgrade, I also needed to power them down once but after that both monitors work perfectly. Mini DP out of the dock to DP in then DP out...
