I use FireFox since it seems to work pretty well. I also like some of the additional features FF offers. Also, I have it on my desktop, S3 and phone so favorites, tabs, whatever, sync

The way your post read I wasn't sure how your printer was set up in your SB so forgive me if I suggested something opposed to what you meant.

...just an off-the-wall thought...is your printer control in your SB set to gray-scale rather than color or B&W?

dstrauss...did your SB explode...catch fire & burn your house down...vaporize and leave a hole in the space-time continuum? Or...did the registry edit actually allow you to wrest control of the USB devices from MS? :)

Have not had this occur with my S3...no helpful ideas I'm afraid. If it was mine, and I'd tried various things with no luck, I think I would go to MS support (chat maybe & let them remote in to the S3 to see if they could find something causing it). From that you would know more than you do now...

No WiFi drop issue here either...

...does appear to be the MS modus operandi of choice!

No idea about Ubuntu. Other than the issues of MS releasing an OS that wasn't quite ready for anyone, my S3 is a gem that I plan to keep (...full disclosure...I'm a tech lover so if the S3 gets truly upgraded in the future (S4), I may have to consider looking at one :) ... but I probably won't...

I have to say, I've only had this freeze issue 2 maybe 3 times since I bought my S3, and each time it's been obvious that it is a display driver issue. That means it is a Windows 10 issue and not a S3 issue per se. Have you tried a reset? I apologize if you have and stated that earlier; I...

My S3 is acting more predictably. It will print to my wireless printer OK (just had it search for printers and it pulled up my wireless printer - was able to use it whenever I need to after that). Also, I set up a Homegroup with my desktop machine and I can copy things back and forth from...

What does Microsoft have to say about this issue with the in-built GPS?

There are some situations where handwritten notes are less of an issue, say, in a meeting or certain classes, than typing out your notes during those events.

Ooops...my bad!

Something must be going around...I had my SP3 die so contact MS for an exchange under my Complete Care program. They couldn't find it. Went through all sorts of hoops for a couple of weeks before they "found" it and made the exchange.

I'm sure you're probably reached the conclusion that it's time to exchange it. If there's someway to check your charger to make sure it's functioning properly, I would do that too. If you have a store (Best Buy, Staples, Office Depot etc) that sells the S3, take your charger with you and plug it...

I have an S3 with no issues as you have with the case. I've only dropped it once on a carpeted floor, and there was no damage at all. Aside from my experience, and I may be wrong here, but I'm thinking that portion of the case that runs along the top of the S3 isn't magnesium alloy. Anyone know...

The only negative I've heard about is that in a number of tests the i5 gets a little better battery life than the m3. You may want to check that out.

Yep, looks pretty wobbly. That may need looking after!

The charging port on my S3 doesn't appear to be loose. The charger plugs into it snugly. As you appear to be concerned with the charging port, why not take it to a Microsoft store to let them look at it, if you have a store within reasonable driving range. If not, the only other thing I can...

...specifically, those needing a detachable clipboard and a high resolution screen: secondarily, those not needing to pay $2000+ for said detachable clipboard device and not feeling comfortable with a larger, heavier laptop device...
