    Battery charging error?

    I've just removed it, let's see if anything changes. I'll put it back to sleep now and try again in an hour to see. Yes? Something has changed? Do you mean in the last firmware update? Surface Embedded Controller Firmware (v103.899.256.0) adds battery charging enhancements and thermal tuning...

    Battery charging error?

    Yes, it looks like it disconnects from the AC and then runs off of battery for 10 seconds to a minute (depending if it's on or in sleep mode) and then back to AC.

    So this isn't worrisome?

    Battery charging error?

    So you don't think this is worrisome? I mean, nothing is wrong with it? On my last Surface Pro 4 I had battery bar pro hide itself when it was at 100%, and now it appears and disappears constantly... I changed it to just always show, but I know this wasn't there on my last SP4. Could this be a...

    Battery charging error?

    I am seeing something strange with my SP4 as of lately. Maybe someone can make heads or tails of this. I have BatteryBar Pro, and it says I'm connected to A/C, and then shortly after it'll show me the time I have remaining (when already charged at 100%). So I ran a battery report and this is...

    Surface Pro 4, Galaxy Tab Pro S, or iPad Pro

    Ipad is the true touch friendly device, since most apps aren't optimized for the ipad pro, and will be larger than average xD haha. There is also no ability to use a mouse... So, if you ever want to do anything productive, I'd stay away from the iPad. Windows is the true multitasking and...

    How is your standby (sleep) battery?

    Right out of the box I get about 4%/hour drain.

    SP4 battery life much better with Win 8.1 dual boot!!

    Wow, that's really cool how you got it to work :)... I am personally loving W10, I've had SO many SP4s (between the i5/128, and then changing to the i5/256, getting one with a wobbly fan, another with defective MD port, etc). I have one now that has a TINY spec of dust under the screen, I...

    SP4 arriving Feb 1. What do I need to do to get prepared?

    How do you know you're happy with it if you don't use it with your usage?

    SP4 arriving Feb 1. What do I need to do to get prepared?

    Mine is getting returned because it has a few different faults (fan doesn't sound good, it disconnects from projectors and monitors even after changing cables and adapters, and etc problems...) I guess I'll just do a normal install as always ... probably the 8th or 9th time I'm installing...

    SP4 arriving Feb 1. What do I need to do to get prepared?

    So then I'd have two devices activated with the same Windows license?

    SP4 arriving Feb 1. What do I need to do to get prepared?

    In regards to Macrium Reflect Free... I'm getting another SP4 in the mail, and it's always pain to install and reinstall everything. Does this change the license or anything important that identifies one surface from another?

    Windows 10586.71 Successfully Landed on SP4

    Works fine for me, hopefully it'll bring more stability with the CPU.

    No, this is my FIRST defective one that's physically defective, and this is my SECOND defective one because software bugs were too much on another. The first one was a preorder that they messed up (Ms complete wasn't added and they wouldn't add it over the phone, and there are no stores in...

    I've had 4 other devices, of which only two were defective.

    HowTo 123123213123213132131231231231313

    Hopefully my new one will be stable. This i5/8/256 is junk... Crashing all the time. Doesn't connect to the projector or monitor ... Hopefully I'll get some 1601 or 02 0r even 03 stock!

    I have been having this happen to me as of lately on my latest SP4. It's going back this week and getting a new one. I connected it to a projector or a monitor and the screen goes black, doesn't respond and I have to force restart it with the power button and volume button. It's frustrating... I...

    Surfacegate

    That's strange. I've had nothing but great things to say about Surface and Microsoft Store support. I've heard that "I'll personally get back to you" from the US team, which they never did. That's because English is my first language, being from the US and all. Now I'm living in Spain, and...

    Article: SP4 & SB Firmware Updates Released 1/22/16?!

    There was NO SP4 update as of yet. It was the SP3 that was updated.... Not the Sp4... :) Just wait a few more days, hopefully.

    not normal fan noise (rattling?)

    You're right... Paying so much money, I shouldn't settle for this kind of oversight in QC. Thanks DavidZ :)
