Wow, well, MS is useless! Haha. I called them to cancel my cancellation and they said no. SO... I have a THIRD SP4 on the way... :oops:o_O

OK, here's an easier way to look at it. The SP4 M3 has a lower wattage CPU, BUT A smaller battery. So it's max drain is less than that of an i5 or i7. The i5 and i7 have larger batteries, but the cpus can drain more battery faster, and also there is a fan. I can guarantee this. Any person with...

Well, I didn't think I was going to do it, but less than 2 days later I'm back! Haha. I really missed my Sp4, and even though my Sp2 is solid, I actually figured that it MUST be a silly but that MS will fix. I really hope they fix these issues ASAP, but honestly, I know for sure I was going to...

Not in Spain. The SP3 is actually more expensive for some reason, and so was the SP2 when the Sp3 came out (the Sp2 was more expensive).

That's all I wanted. Then something happened, and bam, Surface says that I needed to reformat. Not going to invest a 5th time in 3 weeks to initialize my device again. 5 x 3 hours per reinstall = 15 hours. 15 hours in 3 weeks just reformating it! That's far too much. I feel lazy when I format my...

These were the changes I made that I can remember off the bat. Turned off wifi in sleep enabled hibernate and changed the policy on how to use it like by pressing the power button I shut down every time I was done with something, which is a big change from how I used my previous surface: I used...

I think I'll probably wait a few weeks or a month, and see the situation. My SP2 is holding strong. If the mistakes aren't corrected in the SP4 line, I'll look to the Sp3 or even newer devices. I've seen some other devices that offer 8gb ram and 256 ssd for roughly the same price. I'm sure in a...

It MIGHT be an option, but it costs exactly the same as a SP4. I didn't buy the SP3 last year because for me it wasn't a big enough upgrade. I suppose NOW it is! Haha. It's even an upgrade over the SP4 haha. This really killed me: Surface Pro 4 Surface Pro 2, same model (128gb i5) Yes...

It's my partners. It's mostly used at home, but often for work as well. I can steal it, play with it and such, but it's not my personal device. I had the SP2, my partner loved it, got the SP3 the following year. That's the problem: I use it for work EVERY day. Maybe I play Hearthstone at night...

I use my SP4 as a work device. Having to reformat it 5 times is a total nightmare. Each time took 3 hours to reformat, and then updates, and then having to resync, reconfigure, and play around with it when I need it for work is just too much for me. I understand that the i7 is a lot better, but...

Hello!!! I am a big time fan of the Surface line, but today for some reason all of my Windows apps were replaced with @{microsoftCommunication....} tags. Can't open any apps. Went and spoke to the Surface team, and gave them control of my PC and they asked me "How important is the information on...

OK, try this. Angle the screen so you can see yourself in the reflection with the screen turned off. Press down a little little bit in the middle of your face. Mine has a lot of flex. Try this on your phone, you'll see none. Does everyone have this flex on the Sp4? my SP2 didn't have this....

Hello everyone, I'm writing to see if this is normal. Does your SP4 screen flex? I mean, turn off the screen, and then push a little bit, like a little bit more than a tap. Imagine you're writing with a pen, with that kind of strength. I can see the glass flex. Do your screens also flex? Thanks!

I can't speak about the UK, but even looking at the Spanish version, the i5s are identical in price for the SP3 and SP4. Seeing the SP3 is a year old, and it costs the same, maybe the price won't drop... I'd just say go for it if you want it! :)

You must enable it in the show more, if I recall correctly. How to force the Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book to hibernate to save your battery

They actually responded to me about that. That's me. KentSpain85. They say that they didn't have time to develop the deep sleep mode like in the other surface models since this is a new chip. So they said in the beginning of next year which is less than a month away. Will they release it in...

Forgive me, I stand completely corrected. I forgot the i7 had a better graphics chip! :) You're absolutely right! I thought the processor and ram was the only difference.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but both devices will perform exactly the same since the biggest differentiation in gaming is based on the graphics card? I can get 10 i7s working in conjunction but without a good graphics card, maybe my old desktop from 10 years ago with an awesome graphics card will...

Many users? really? I have had 2 SP4, and this is the first time I'm hearing of this... :-\

I use my device 90% of the time while plugged in. My usage is very strange. My Surface Pro 2, more than 2 years later, has very very good battery life just because I used it mostly on the charger, and I discharged about once or twice a month (when I used it, especially while out and about, like...
