    Are there any SP5 models WITHOUT lightbleed?

    How did this work out? I'm on my third Surface Pro (2017) and they've all had bad lightbleed... albeit I can only really notice on the ctrl + alt + del screen so I learnt to live with it.

    spot the Surface!

    Wow been a while since anyone posted in here! Still, I noticed a Pro in EastEnders this week; didn't get a pic, but I did when I saw one along with a Book in Detectorists :)

    Some new Surface related stuff?

    Not sure if anyone saw the cryptic retweet from Tom Warren the other day with 3 Surface related code names... PZ ZaP Vail Any ideas? :) guessing it might be stuff revealed at the Surface event at the end of the month, though apparently they're 'not very exciting' lol... so maybe just...

    Got 3 Surfaces, all with light bleed + general MS bashing

    Yes I just gave up and decided to live with it, because despite it's faults, it's still an excellent machine... it's a shame to see parts of the machine that are actually worse than the one I bought 4 years ago! But at the same time there are so many improvements it does make it worth it in the...

    Got 3 Surfaces, all with light bleed + general MS bashing

    I've had 3. All with light bleed as well :( but tbh since the initial loading of Windows I've not really noticed it. Microsoft will replace it but I just got fed up in the end!

    Surface Pro M3 v i5

    Same here. I'd of loved to 'upgrade' from my original Surface Pro this time around, but I stuck with i5/4Gb mainly because of the price (I wanted to keep it under a grand) but my usage hasn't really changed in 4 years, and I figured the original done me well over all those years so why bother...

    Who's getting one?

    You bought a Surface Laptop, scratched it, then returned it? :oops:

    plugged not in charge : good idea to save battery life ?

    Like others have said... don't worry! My original Surface Pro is 4 years old now and still holding hours of charge; I never did anything special with it :)

    Surface Pro - worst warranty experience ever!!!!

    Had a terrible experience here too, on a different matter. Do agree with @hughlle though, it does take a while but online chat usually gives the best results!

    Noisy processor!

    So my 3rd Pro came... same issues :( Very noisy capacitance noise, laggy Bluetooth and light bleed on the bottom of the screen. Slow Wi-Fi seems to have been resolved though. Very disappointed but am just going to keep this one as there are some things I love about the machine such as the...

    Surface Pro Deal of the Year

    Nice one :D

    Noisy processor!

    I believe now the noise is down to noisy capacitors (possibly related to the power handling module within the Surface itself) I almost couldn't be bothered sending it back, as it's a 2 week wait as minimum in the UK (it has to go back to Germany for some reason) but alas I sent it off today...

    Noisy processor!

    Just testing again and it happens even when I'm moving the mouse around! Like not even scrolling or clicking anything. I just refreshed the page and it went crazy lol. Didn't think of testing that but just did and can confirm it happens on both occasions. Worst thing for me is the damn return...

    Noisy processor!

    Yes this is it. Very strange indeed and would love to know where it actually comes from! I did find this... Fan noise and Clicking/Buzzing Noise on Surface Pro 4 in Windows 10 | Microsoft Surface tablet But it didn't help (as stated after the latest update it probably wouldn't anyway) I know...

    Noisy processor!

    Thought I'd start a new thread for problems with machine No.2 :confused: It still has the same issues as my previous one, i.e. light bleed, slow Wi-Fi and lagging Bluetooth... but the Bluetooth is slightly better so I just thought sod it I'll keep it. However! I've now noticed, the processor is...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Well finally got my new unit yesterday! Even though I found Microsoft Support pretty dire, at least UPS were spot on. From Germany to my front door in under 24 hours. Anyway from my short test yesterday it seems a little better. Still has a slight delay in initial movement, but no lagging...

    Third New Problem: Aggressive CPU Slowdown

    You are seriously butt hurt! Sounds like Surface isn't for you. If you cannot use Mac, how about a different brand of Windows computer?
