    did Microsoft give me the wrong power supply? Does it matter?

    I think it only matters for the I7 dGPU models. They gave me a 65 watt with mine but I have read others got the 36 watt and they have issues with is not charging while in use. I could be wrong but I think the lower end models come with the 36 Watt.

    SB does not wake from sleep

    I had this issue once or twice prior to the most recent Windows 10 Update but haven't seen it on my Surface Book since. On the other hand both my Surface 3 and Yoga 2 Pro have had this happen several times since the update.

    Battery Performance

    Was this the fall update they were talking about? I thought this was just a Windows Update (which all Windows 10 machines got) whereas I figured the fall update would be Surface specific firmware. Anyway, so you completely shut off the SB? hmm could really be anything that took that 4% at boot...

    Windows 10 Update Out Today

    My Surface Book updated to a new build (10586) today. No idea what it changes or fixes though. Windows 10 focuses on Cortana and Edge in first big update

    Battery Performance

    It drains the battery because of the sensor. It is constantly looking for light changes and adjusting the screen accordingly. In certain lighting conditions the adaptations are happening continuously as the lighting in the room fluctuates. A lot of Android phones have the same problem with...

    Battery Performance

    Turning of adaptive brightness ( I dim and turn up the display as needed via Fn + Del, Fn+Backspace) and using hibernate instead of sleep did wonders for my battery life.

    Nvidia GeForce Experience

    Gamestream only works on GTX GeForce dGPUS so even though our dGPU is related to the 940M even that dGPU isn't capable of Gamestream. It has to be a GTX model.

    Plugged In, Keyboard Battery at 0%, and Not Charging

    It sounds like you may have a faulty keyboard base. Definitely get with Microsoft on this.

    Wow. Set machine to hiberate with lid closed and...

    Hibernate is working perfectly on mine. Perhaps yours reverted back to just Sleeping? On an aside, don't you have a replacememt SB coming for your detach hardware issue? I wouldn't worry about anything else on your current unit as it likely will not be an issue on your new one (besides the well...

    Display Driver Errors driving me crazy..!!!

    Well I have the dGPU with no Intel driver issues Yeah maybe. I am not in the Technical Preview so just on the Public Build and didn't have to do a clean install. Maybe I am just one of the lucky ones... thankfully. I had to deal with Intel Driver crashes on my Yoga 2 Pro for 6 months until a...

    Trackpad Issues

    yeah that goes along with what I was saying; People without out issues generally aren't on forums because they have no issues that need fixing.

    Display Driver Errors driving me crazy..!!!

    I wonder why some are getting these errors and others aren't. I have not received a single display error; Maybe it is model dependent? I have the I7/512GB/16GB dGPU model.

    Trackpad Issues

    It's hard to tell what the actual amount of units suffering bugs are. Typically (in my experience) people with zero issues spend little time on forums unless they are an involved member and want to help. There are bugs with every Apple product I have ever purchased at launch, and actually pretty...

    Given the wrong model? No GPU shown

    You could have gotten the wrong keyboard base somehow but have you dome a full reset and reinstalled the Surface Book Factory Image which is available directly from Microsoft? Others who have had Nvidia and other issues have had a factory reset/reinstall fix the majority of them. Also, where did...

    N-Trig jitter is driving me nuts!

    I didn't vote because I am in the Who Knows if they will ever fix it camp. This has been a problem since the SP3 so regardless they have dragged their feet on a fix. N-trig says their tech shouldn't be doing this but I don't know if it is a simple driver fix or if it is screen/pixel related or...

    Poll buy or not buy now, that's a problem

    I got an I7/512GB/16GB dGPU on Tuescday and have been hammering it ever since. Beside one initial SNAFU after the firmware update this thing has been rock solid and is now my all day work laptop and at home living room tablet. Battery life has been great minus the sleep battery drain issue...

    Forum member hands on reviews of the Surface Book

    Initial impressions of my Surface Book I7/512GB/16GB are that it is the best laptop I have owned to date. There are a couple issues that I am not crazy about but they are likely fixable via firmware. First the trackpad works really well on most things but Scrolling on Chrome is attrocious in my...
