    Drawings that you have done with your surface

    I've been doodling around, wanted to get bit messier with detail and color :)

    N-trig

    Cintiq Companion is industry grade toy, definately not productivity device. Wacom Feel devices are from my experience jittery and inacurrate near edges no matter how many points of calibration you try in config and they need recalibration depending on your work position- resting Wacom feel...

    List of Lumia Phones that will Take Windows 10 Eventually

    When I searched for info about Lumia 1020 regarding Insider Builds, I found out that the device is compatible, so I'd assume it will get full support? I'm currently running 10586.11 on it without any issues.

    Wow its getting hot - heat issues to a science

    Same here, I only use Edge on workstation now- SP3 was always hot with Edge- fans rarely kicked in while watching tv series/movies while one tab in Edge made device go crazy

    Solved Unwanted feature (bug?) with opening folders

    If only this was so simple- I already have that option checked and it doesn't change folder window behaviour. I also tried unchecking that box, restarting and checking it again but that doesn't help either...

    Solved Unwanted feature (bug?) with opening folders

    Hey all! Some time ago I noticed that whenever I navigate inside File Explorer it starts to open contents of subfolders in separate windows- at first I thought it's something default, but I haven't found option to disable it. I usually have to click through couple folders starting with Pictures...

    Is the Urban Amor Gear Case for the Surface Pro 4 any good?

    I have SP3 case from UAG: overall impression- sturdy, well built if slightly heavy. I do not like the stand- lower edge of case is not very good at supporting the stand (very thin bezel around type cover port), so it bends when you apply force on tablet (like holding hand on it which happens...

    Gaming software

    I used to play games like Skyrim/Fallout New Vegas + couple MMO's like EVE Online and World of Tanks on Surface Pro 3, so SP4 shouldn't have problems running more complex games too- just as Jason mentioned- turn to lower resolution and you should be fine

    Best drawing program?

    I don't know why it is crashing on your Surface, it's pretty stable on mine. I don't know how to deal with stability issues of Store Apps, that's why I like desktop variants more- you can tinker with settings and usually someone had same issue and got it figured out :) Corel Painter is more of a...

    Best drawing program?

    Oh, I forgot- there's also ArtRage Touch in Windows Store- I think it's paid, but doesn't cost too much. That said, desktop version of ArtRage is already great on Surface, because UI is very well tailored for using with touchscreen :)

    How many times have you replaced the main battery in your SP3 Pen?

    Between Jan and May I used pen 8-12hrs per day, everyday, Jun-now 2-6hrs per day. Still waiting to use all those spares I bought ;) (bought like 4 in case I can't find any later)

    SP4 Benchmarks

    Streaming is tricky part, TBH, I never played any multiplayer on it, I figured all those miliseconds add up and I'm already far behind teen nerds, hehe. I'm upgrading to 250mb/s next month, but I'm not too enthusiastic, right now 40mb/s worked fine ping-wise at around 30ms, but wireless tends to...

    SP4 Benchmarks

    Yup, I'm eager to see how that goes, for now I'm mostly streaming to my SP3 from workstation if I want to play on sofa. I'll check aritcle once I'm back home, thanks for heads up regarding sustained performance!

    SP4 Benchmarks

    Those benchmarks look great so far- I wonder how will SP4 behave under heavy load- SP3 i7 has great performance for about 5minutes, then throttling was killing it. This is related to gaming, I didn't have any bigger issues with performance in Photoshop or Painter :)

    Poll For those keeping their Surface Pro 3 which accessories are you updating?

    To me Type Cover looks like good investment- I like bigger touchpad and spaces between keys, as more often than not, I'm pressing two at a time. Also, I will have that bit less to buy with new SP4. Pen is tricky part: according to this blog- Surface Pro Artist SP4 Pen will not have 1024...

    Drawing on the Surface Book

    Drawing on such device is less than ideal for me- it works okey on lap with one hand supporting display, but it's rather uncomfotable on desk. I was using Thinkpad Yoga before I bought Surface, and I had to use stand (repurposed laptop cooling pad :) ) to elevate upper part of pc to draw...

    Poll What do you want to buy, Surface Pro or Surface Book?

    How does SP4 i5/8GB compare to SP3 i7/8GB in terms of performance? SP3 i7 version had better start in performance tests against i5, but thermal throttling was pushing it back even below i5 performance in some cases. Overall performance of SP4 is said to be 30% higher than SP3, I'm assuming that...
