Wow, that's horrible battery life. With no changes, I got 4-6 hours of battery life. Dropping my i5 to M3 speeds by limiting the processor by 50%, I got 8-9 hours of screen on time with mixed usage... Mostly web browsing of course...

I have the SP4 charger, the normal one that comes with the i5.

I have the same issue. I think it MIGHT be the cable. It is designed to charge a phone, BTW. Haha. My cable was for a Samsung device BTW. I tried ANOTHER cable, and it worked! But then I tried ANOTHER cable, and it didn't work... So... I don't know... I tried charging my LG G4, Samsung Galaxy...

SD cards are slow, anywhere from 4/5 MB write up to 70MB write. Reads are usually between 50-100MB. It's great for storing documents, some pictures, even local video. But it's not the best when it comes to syncing a lot of files or installing many applications to it. SD cards have a limit of...

Really? I am getting 1/3 more, easily, with the settings I mentioned... Hmm... I think the Spectre is neat, but it's much thicker, heavier and from what I have read from other forums and people who have had both, they heat up all the same, fans kick on about the same... And let's be honest...

I hear you. I was in the same boat as you. Then I saw how flimsy the touch screen was and how it bounced. I really use the touch screen of the surface. I recently tried a forum post from Windows Central, let me get it for you. NO MORE THROTTLLE OR FANS surface pro 3/4 - Windows Central...

The keyboard costs 150 euros here in Spain, I'd be willing to pay 200 for a type cover with a battery in it.

You will have to take it to the store to have it checked out. I returned mine and bought it again because they wouldn't let me buy it without taking it in. So I returned it. If it's from the MS store online, then you can use it for sure online. I'm not sure about in stores.

I'm currently reviewing the UAG, it's nice. But for my day to day I'm using the memory foam laptop case and I do have a screen protector. I also have the 3 year warranty, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to keep my own device in perfect condition! Right? Lol. In regards to the screen...

Of course. Damn that 1 file per queue request limit on usb and micro SD! [emoji30] [emoji31]

You're welcome! Hit the thanks button Hehe.

Yes. I understand, but that accessory is over 2 years old. They made it backwards compatible with the sp3 with a firmware update as you stated. Maybe they'll update the sp4 one of these days. Maybe not. But I agree, it's sad not to provide that support. The only thing I can think is that maybe...

Are you actually getting those speeds? Can you do a speed test?

Try the latest graphic drivers. I used to have this issue and at some point it disappeared with the windows updates.

If you're expecting an iPad experience on a full desktop grade computer, you're in for a world of hurt. Lol. You have to remember that it's a laptop in tablet form. But it's not a tablet. It's an ultra book in tablet form. Therefore, it has all the same issues any desktop or laptop can have...

I completely agree. the SP4 is NOT a gaming machine. I'm sure most games from the Windows Store will run fine, but why get a Surface to only limit yourself to the Windows Store? I installed steam and there are games that I play that run just fine. I think for the price there are a lot of gaming...

I put on a screen protector on my surface pro 2, and it's in perfect condition. I understand what most of you are saying. I don't mind that my device gets scratched but the screen is the one thing I can't stand to see a scratch on. So I put on a screen protector on my sp4 as well. I also have...

Hello everyone! And good morning! I'm having a serious issue with my SP4 that I had never encountered. My SP4 won't connect to any wifi. I have 2 routers, it won't connect to either of them. I even created a hotspot on my phone just to make sure that my routers weren't the isssue, no go either...

I use mine as a desktop when I'm not at my desktop! haha. My Desktop has a very good graphics card and a couple TB HDDs and an SSD for my apps and Windows. My Surface Pro 4 is my desktop replacement for when I'm not on my desktop. I have a server at home which hosts all of my documents via BT...

Of course. I for one had terrible experienced with Apple. Had 3 iPhones, all defective and new. The fourth wasn't even opened and I sold it as a new device as it was BNIB. I guess we all have different experiences. I personally like how Microsoft deals with these issues. I have has very good...
