Just ask for a replacement. I had that issue on my W700, and I thought it was a driver issue with Windows 8.0. So I waited till 8.1, then the warranty expires.

Is it safe to get a universal/third-party charger from Amazon as a backup? I wont use it to fully charge the SP3 everyday. Just to keep one in the bag in case I need it. Maybe Ill use it once or twice a week just for 10-20% charge. The thing is, the original charge is so expensive for that use...

I wonder though, why does the CPU clock stay when the temp gets lower?

Try selecting the whole ink, right click, then "Treat Ink as Drawing"

lol at one point, youd need more RAM to run Android than Windows

lol :D , I almost placed a pre-order for the Surface Hub (the 84" tablet, not the app)...

When did the last time you use the optical drive on your laptop? If you don't remember, then SP3 wouldn't be a problem IMO, especially with the fact that you still have other devices to backup when you really need it. I spent so much effort and money to get the Sony VAIO S over the Acer...

Yeah, the list of the files I removed are scattered in the surfaceforums posts. But the 1.2 GB is actually the work of WIMBoot. Basically WIMBoot replaces all systems files with small pointer files that points to the recovery image. That 1.2 GB is actually pointer files instead of actual files...

Dat Periodic Table app :D I think it does nothing as of now. Its just a placeholder for the actual functionality in the future

IMO theres no point to future-proof with the one that's almost double the price. With the same budget, if you bought the i3, it wouldn't even have to last the entire college since you would still have plenty of money left to get the i3 SP6 or whatever entry-level tablet in the middle of the...

If you don't have a specific need for i5 or i7, I would recommend i3/64 model. There are some space saving tips, and combined with expandable storage (microSD), the i3 should be sufficient for 99% of the people. Check out the link in my sig about the guide for the i3 SP3.

This is the reason why the keyboard is optional. Don't like it? Just get another (BT) keyboard. What? I don't think its a real mechanical keyboard as in the one with real mechanical switches like most mechanical gaming keyboards. Can anybody confirm?

Theyre now copying Chrome with its terrible UI. After all, people love such terrible browser till the point where even Google themselves have no idea why.

I am talking about the 'tablet mode' Continuum in the latest build released hours ago. To ask about will the design change, well, honestly, Im pessimistic. It seems like MS has completely forgotten about ergonomic that they paid so much attention the past. If you've been following Windows Phone...

Before anybody complaint, Im not going to treat Windows 10 like a final release because obviously it is not. There are MANY bugs and broken visuals for sure. But here, Im going to talk about the core design, the usability, experience, and ergonomic. Something that is not going to, and should not...

How about Connected Standby

I don't find it great on a tablet. On a desktop, sure, but the UI is not ergonomic at all on a tablet or small devices. Tabs and address bar on top is not great for a tablet since you need to reach all the way up top. This had been discussed (and complained) on Android Honeycomb back in 2011. I...

I have some questions, Is it durable? Since Im planning to use it as a mobile mouse, so it has to be durable. Hows the battery life by the way? Yeah, I know the swipe is customizable, but that's merely just two functions and I cant even press-and-hold it, or can I? For example, I want one...

You can also use the WIMBoot image that has English language (download link below). But the method explained by hughlle above is definitely easier.
