    SP3 turning on too easily in cover/case

    Anyone else having this happen? Have had a variety of cases/sleeves/covers, and more often than not, my SP3 will turn on at some point during travel, so that when I take it out in class it's lost 20-30% battery, and is super hot from being trapped in my bag without proper airflow. Not talking...

    Is it an older printer? I just plugged my Epson in via USB and it auto-installed / plug and play, and haven't had any issues.

    Laggy game from the store

    Game might be a badly coded port over to the MS store - god knows it's going to sell more being on the Apple app store so that version is probably better optimized. Is your SP3 throttling due to temperature? Worst case scenario get one of those portable USB fans and aim it at the top-right...

    Where did you put your pen loop? (pics)

    Since I replaced my type cover with the power cover I've been trying to figure out where to put the pen loop (as the power cover is thicker and there's just not a good spot to attach it. Ending up trimming the sticky tab and attaching it right under the hinge so the kickstand isn't hindered at all.

    Final Fantasy XIII plays great on my SP3!

    Just disagree with this - this is, IMO, one of the worst games I've ever played. You run in a straight line while mashing the 'auto-battle' button over and over again for 40 hours. And the translation is also brutal, like it was written by 20-something Japanese college students, and then...

    CNNGo

    It's good if you like that kinda presentation - far too messy for my liking though - feels like a YouTube app.

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    Hardly any touch gestures work in the current technical preview as it's focused on desktop functionality - tablet support coming in later updates.

    Surface Pro 3 Official MS Screen Protector

    Hmm, hard to say - maybe like 5-10% I'd guess - the screen also loses probably around the same amount of brightness though, but at the same time, it smudges waaaaayyyy less, which is really nice. They should put that on the box. Edit: didn't see someone posted about this product earlier -...

    Surface Pro 3 Official MS Screen Protector

    Just picked one up at the MS store in Vancouver - said it's the first one they've sold and that it only just came in. Really impressed with it so far - made of tempered glass - feels incredibly premium, and when on the device it literally feels just like you're touching the actual screen. Also...

    List of top 3 likes and dislikes about SP3

    Likes 1) 3:2 aspect ratio - love this. Makes 16:9 look like there's hardly anything on screen. 2) Pen. Use this constantly, especially while browsing. 3) Power Cover compatability (but would love to have an official SP3 PC released). Dislikes 1) Battery. It's awful without the Power Cover...

    Type Cover Color Popularity

    Originally got the red cover, but exchanged that for the power cover to extend my battery life, and the pc only comes in black :P

    I'd like to use the pen more.

    I use it a ton just for web browsing - much more accurate than with my fingers. Been through multiple batteries already :P

    Intel Core M - Lenovo Yoga Pro 3

    Agreed - further example being that the yoga 3 pro doesn't have a digitizer but the ThinkPad yoga does, while the Thinkpad yoga has an NVIDIA graphics card option while the 3 pro doesn't. Both fold back into tablets, yet the Thinkpad weighs 4+ pounds (5+ with the graphics card). Combine these...

    Intel Core M - Lenovo Yoga Pro 3

    They collapse and lock flush with the ThinkPad yoga 14, not the yoga 3 pro.

    Init Tablet Case = perfect fit w/SP3 (with pics)

    Already have the SP3 in a folio case for when it's out in the wild, but wanted a compact case for my SP3 for carrying it in my backpack between classes. This case is literally a perfect fit for the SP3 and type cover. It's like it was designed for it - and it leaves the tiniest footprint...

    Urban Armor Gear Red Case - Quick Review w/ Pics

    They are all flimsy, in the sense that when in a backpack filled with textbooks, the type cover is not going to stay in place over the screen - it's going to flop off and expose the screen, at which point the UA case is useless - unless you like duct tape it to the UAG case so it's sealed shut...

    Yeah... that's pretty amazing that you're getting 8.5 already though :P

    Urban Armor Gear Red Case - Quick Review w/ Pics

    My main issue would be that even though such a case provides great protection for the back/sides of the device, it does nothing for the front (and the type cover doesn't count with it being all flimsy) - as there's no way I'd throw the SP3 in my backpack for school without also protecting the...

    Whats APPS are you running in Systray? Post your "Battery Life"

    This has been my experience as well. Drops to around 4 hours if I watch a decent amount of YouTube in that mix. At best, I've had a few charges that went up to around 6 hours when my antivirus didn't kick in with a scan. (This is all on max brightness by the way). Overall though, average is...

    Power Cover with SP3 + Pics

    Just the lighting - the power cover only comes in black unfortunately. Does look a little bit less dark than the sp3 black type cover though.
