    Christmas Wish

    I would love some Surface Headphones but unfortunately they're well over budget!

    microSDXC pros/cons?

    Same I've got a SanDisk which has caused no problems with my SP5, although it was in my SP1 previously and did need reseating every now and then!

    Constant ticking/clicking noises

    I wonder if this routes back to a problem these machines have been having for a long time! I made this thread over on Windows Central about my problems on SP5: Noisy processor! - Windows Central Forums Which also links to someone else having similar issues on SP4: Fan noise and...

    Surface Pro, Surface Go, or another tablet for note taking?

    I would go for the Go or an iPad... the new Pro certainly looks impressive though it is an expensive beast!

    type cover keyboard issue!

    I can't see how it would change anything on the keyboard, after all it doesn't have any memory does it?

    SwiftKey?

    Okay, I need to find out if she's done this. Will I be able to tell in Windows Update screen?

    Anyone care to comment on an SPro (1st gen) and Windows 10 usability?

    Are you sure it's the Power Cover and not your Surface that's at fault? Just wondering if you've actually tried out any other covers on it... As for the eBay thing, very annoying, I've had that before. What I did was hold off from feedback altogether, sent the item back and got my money back...

    SwiftKey?

    Hi guys. I gave my old (original) Surface Pro to my mum. She loves using SwiftKey on her iPhone, and I've seen people using it on Surface too... but alas, when I checked it doesn't seem to be built into Windows (which is probably should be) Any ideas how I get it on there?

    What's the best browser to use with Surface devices?

    Scrolling via touch on Chrome seems to be a bit of an issue with my SP5... keeps stuttering. Edge does it too, but not as bad. Sometimes this machine seems to perform worst than my SP1! So annoying.

    SP2017 screen bulge

    The weirdest bit is that you need to send it from your home address? Don't see why that would matter at all... frustrating. Have you got any further with this?

    Wired vs wireless headphones. Your preferences?

    I would love these, but my budget's £100 when it comes to headphones... I just don't use them enough to warrant a higher spend!

    ummm... oops I just bought one i5 Surface pro

    I believe the latest rumour is a spec bump this year... and a re-design next year. Although I agree it is hard to envisage what a new version could look like! I won't be upgrading until 2021 now anyway - Sure we'll have something new to rave about by then either way :p

    Over a year in... any fixes for start up connectivity?

    Actually, you're right. I think this is similar to my issue... it definitely hasn't been working in the past, but I am finding now if I leave it for 2-3 minutes it'll finally connect by itself. Rather frustrating when the first things I do when turning my Surface on is to open Skype & Twitter...

    The Band. It is dead!

    Too big for me, which is a shame as the Gear 2 looked really good (and was smaller) Shame to hear the Pixel Watch has been cancelled... so Apple Watch it is for me next time!

    The Band. It is dead!

    2 year bump :p so... got a replacement off eBay like I said. That one died yesterday lol, completely split. There's 3 left on eBay! Put a cheeky offer in for a brand new one (still sealed) and got it for £30 delivered. That'll do me until next year when I'll probably upgrade to an Apple Watch...

    Wired vs wireless headphones. Your preferences?

    If I'm out about I use my EarPods... if I'm inside listening to music or watching a TV show I'll use my wireless headphones - AKG Y45BT.

    Are there any SP5 models WITHOUT lightbleed?

    Sorry for the late reply. Mainly lightbleed, but also connectivity issues with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and static noise from resistors. None of which have been resolved!

    Over a year in... any fixes for start up connectivity?

    Wow! Fantastic. Well, not fantastic, but I'm glad to hear I'm not alone. Maybe I should start a case on the Microsoft forums... Thanks for the information @sharpuser I'll look into it :)

    Are there any SP5 models WITHOUT lightbleed?

    Glad to hear it's working out for you buddy! Each Surface I bought last year had many other problems too... capacitance noise, unstable Wi-Fi on boot, Bluetooth juddering etc. but I too, am in love with the profile of this thing so I put up with it lol. Funnily enough though, none of these...

    Over a year in... any fixes for start up connectivity?

    I'm still loving my Surface despite it's problems :) and I'm glad to see the Alcantara is holding up great even with daily use (in fact, it's feeling better than ever these days) So, the problem: Every time the Surface boots, Wi-Fi never works. I have disconnect/reconnect for it to start...
