I get the BSOD every once in a while when I detach and re-attach the screen (have all the updates installed). It won't restart by itself, so I have to do a hard restart. Does that happen to anyone else? Do you think it might be a hardware issue with my laptop? Some users over at Reddit...

But I wouldn't even compare the Surface Book to a Bugatti or Lamborghini because I don't think the price is so high that it limits to just 0.001% of population. I would say its more like a Mercedes or BMW of laptops. The reason I found the article to be absurd is because it just assumes...

According to PC Mag at least: The Surface Book and Microsoft's Marketing Folly "Nobody in their right mind will buy one unless they have excess cash. If I ever see one in the wild, which I doubt, I'll indeed ask that person if they have money to burn and if so can they give me some of it?" -lol

How come adaptive brightness drains the battery more? In general my screen is darker with adaptive brightness so I would assume that it should save me battery life not drain it more.

Anandtech just released its review of the surface book and I feel that it's the most comprehensive professional review of the device. For those of you who have not seen it yet, here's the link: The Microsoft Surface Book Review

Is updating the drivers supposed to help: http://www.windowscentral.com/surface-book-and-surface-pro-4-battery-drivers-out-of-date Don't want to do it since it's not official unless necessary.

For those of you who use the device on unstable surfaces or tables that are a little wobbly themselves, do you get used to the screen wobble? I feel that this laptop wobbles noticeably when on surfaces that are not fixed.

I've had my Surface Book (i5 dGPU) for a couple of days now and I really like it. I was debating between the surface book and the Dell XPS 15 and I finally got to play around with both devices at the MS store. The screen on both devices was nice but I didn't like the keyboard on the XPS 15...

People have been comparing the GPU to the 94oM but tests have shown that it fares slightly better. CNET just posted a good article about it's gaming capabilities: Gaming on the Surface Book: What you need to know - CNET He concludes that he "would not recommend buying the Surface Book...

Do you guys think that most of the issues people are having are: 1) software related, which can be fixed with future updates 2) due to a bunch of products being shipped with hardware defects, impacting certain unlucky customers who happen to get the "lemons" 3) genuine hardware issues that come...

I just read this article on Forbes: Microsoft Surface Book Hit With Early Problems Already and noticed that it was quoting one of our threads: Amazing amount of problems with Surface Book | Microsoft Surface Forums I thought that's interesting.

What about the wobble? Does that bother you at all, especially if your typing on your lap or on a commute (train, plane, etc.)?

Out of curiosity, besides the login, what added benefit does the fingerprint reader version have?

I've seen this complaint posted by other reviews too (Reddit). I hope it will be fixed with some software updates.

BestBuy would be your best bet at getting them in store at launch.

This might have been obvious to a lot of folks already but having a 3:2 aspect ratio actually makes the SB have significantly more screen real estate than the competition. Although I can whip out my geometry equations from high school, I found this website helpful to figure out the screen...

I think that a lot of people can agree that it's not the devices preventing people from switching to MS Phones but the lack of apps.

In general, based on certain reviews, should we be worried that the initial batch of SBs might be faulty? Could it be the case that MS rushed the release without having through QC and the initial batches contain various flaws, only to be corrected down the line in subsequent batches?

I pre-ordered from Best Buy and mine has yet to ship :(

I'm thinking of selling my SP3 for the SB but if I decide not to, I would get the new keyboard for sure. Testing it at the MS store, it's honestly a significant upgrade. In fact when it comes to the SP4 vs SP3, I would even venture to say that the keyboard is a more significant upgrade than...
