    Thinking of upgrading my SP3 to SP4 - a few questions...

    Just to confirm, you've never (not even once) had the issue described for #1? It's so frequent with me, I don't know if you're insanely lucky - or I'm unlucky! :confused:

    Thinking of upgrading my SP3 to SP4 - a few questions...

    Thanks for the replies. Hughlle, I find that particularly interesting. Makes me wonder now if I should stick it out with the SP3 or change to something like a Yoga 900. What would you do? And thanks Leeshor, I think turning a few things off will help out. I've just turned off a couple of...

    Thinking of upgrading my SP3 to SP4 - a few questions...

    Hi all. I'm hoping a few SP4 users could help me out. If you had an SP3 in the past too, that would be even better :) I'm getting increasingly frustrated with my SP3 - I rage almost daily now. I think I blame Windows 10 more than the device itself, but whether it's a case of just doing a fresh...

    Post Your SP3 WiFi/Internet Issues Here

    Well, I'm now replying to you on my Surface again. So I'm sure you can guess how your advice went! ;) Sorry I didn't say before, I'm on Windows 10 (not that is really matters now!) Do you happen to know what caused this to happen in the first place? Thanks you so much for your help.

    Post Your SP3 WiFi/Internet Issues Here

    Please forgive me for not trawling through all 15 pages of this thread to see if this issue has come up before! From what I can see, the old posts are mainly issues about not connecting or dropping out. My problem is that my wifi simply won't turn on anymore! I was happily browsing as normal...

    Is the Surface keyboard cover 'officially designed' by Microsoft to be taken off and reversed?

    I can't speak 'officially' - but I just tried it and it looks like power is no longer sent to the keyboard in reverse. So I would assume you would have no problems in doing it. I don't see why you would want to though. It's a lot more tedious than just flipping it under..? In terms of...

    Windows 10 problems on suface pro 3

    No, not at all. I've not said once that it's a transition issue. Nor am I using it like 8.1. The majority of the issues I'm finding are either bugs or just thoughtless design. I didn't get my first blue screen in 10 by using it wrong... it just happened when I pressed the power button. Neither...

    Windows 10 problems on suface pro 3

    Ah yes, I didn't know you had to hold it down for a bit before moving, thanks. And you wouldn't have that problem on a Windows Phone you know ;) But even then, the software should be optimised for the user, not the other way around. When it comes to UX, you shouldn't be able to be "simply using...

    Windows 10 problems on suface pro 3

    In touch mode, you can't rearrange the tabs in Edge. At least I can't anyway. Works fine with a mouse. Touch. Touch. Touch! And my main gripe with the size of the Notification Centre is because of accidental launch. If I'm scrolling through a page with my thumb close to the right edge, then...

    Windows 10 problems on suface pro 3

    I totally agree. I'm very tempted to go back to 8.1 on my SP3. No swiping in Edge for forward and back pages is annoying. Sometimes it doesn't want to open or close tabs in touch mode, I have to use the pen. It won't let you reorder your tabs either! On screen keyboard (mainly in Edge) pops up...

    Microsoft's Surface Pro 4 and Windows 10 Likely Launching Together in October [Rumor]

    If true, Apple will win. MS need to release it before, or at the latest the same time, in order to compete with a chance of winning, right? I'm not sure I agree when it comes to large companies adopting it. Wouldn't schools/companies, etc. want a hassle free platform? I can imagine they would...

    Surface Pro 4 Could Be Announced in Mid-May [Rumor]

    Why didn't you get the 8GB SP3 then?

    Surface Pro 4 Could Be Announced in Mid-May [Rumor]

    Fanless doesn't overly thrill me. I'd rather have the performance. SP3 isn't exactly a thick device! Let's hope they've managed to increase performance over SP3 - and not just in bursts. I'll be impressed if they pull it off properly.

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    No, it's ok. We'll put it down to passion. Perhaps you took my first reply as rude or abrupt also. It was not my intention either - merely debating if updating the infrastructure for the sake of a new device was necessary. And no matter how much we continue to debate the situation, we would...

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    I didn't ask for your credentials, and neither do I care. I don't wish to argue anything. I'm merely stating that your comment came across abrupt, assumptive and quite frankly unprofessional. No better than "the kid online". You're not helping yourself with that last post either. Websites like...

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    I'm not sure that's not a fair comment - especially from Admin?! You suggest they spend potentially thousands of £/$ for the sake of MS sales of SP3's? Some "modern infrastructures" still require wires. And if said company chooses to get laptops with built in ethernet connections because it's a...

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    I don't think the dock is always a suitable option. It's not exactly cheap. If you're a big company, potentially buying hundreds of SP3's, the cost will already be pretty sky-high. There are cheaper alternatives. I almost feel sorry for your 'large company' for being so shortsighted. The SP3...

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    After reading a few of these pages, I figured I'd join in. Some of the suggestions I seriously hope do not get included in the SP4. Some are great. -Don't make it thinner. It's thin enough! If it's possible to make it thinner, then just use the space to increase the battery size/better cooling...
