Should you at least get 700Mbps+ link speed between your router and SF3 on 5ghz band if you are using it?

After poking around a little more in the setting. I turned off the taps under mouse and keyboard. That seems to eliminate the accidentally cursor at the wrong location while typing. It is now more enjoyable using the type cover keyboard :P

Hope you feel better soon!

Disabled the disc encryption and reboot. I did PassMark test, the Disc Mark now score at 3098.

@double07, it looks like your disk score is very low and that would hold your overall score down. The other numbers look about right. I think, I know why my disc number is low. I just discovered that mine SF3 came with disc encryption on. I don't remember turning that on? I am disabling it...

My initial non-scientific battery tracking yesterday. I am getting 7 to 8hrs on my usage. I got 100% at 2:30pm, non stop normal usage, web, email, MS word, Youtube, install app, etc... No games. I don't do game. 58% by 6:30pm. Continue to use with what I would do normally, 30% by 8:30pm...

While typing on type cover, I often time rest my thumbs or palms on mouse pad and accidentally put my cursor somewhere else while typing. All sudden, I am typing in the middle of the word or replacing words. How does anyone deal with this? Can the mouse pad be disable while typing? The...

The light at the plug will come on indicating that it is charging, but it is not. You can look at the charging icon on task bar, you won't see the lighting (charging) sign. At least, in my case. When plug the other way every thing is fine. I don't know if it was the contact issue? Or some...

You suppose to be able to plug either way and charge. your unit is DEFECTED. That is HW issue. my first sf3 had the same issue, I exchanged it. the replacement is charging any direction just like the mac charger.

Mine number was pretty much SF3 out of the box. No update. I guess I will do the update and retest it tomorrow.

Ditto ...

@bamaster, I doubt that the battery will get any better. I have not paid much attention on my battery, I just use it and recharge it when needed to. Yes, good luck to you too. I think, I will keep mine as well.

I just downloaded Passmark few min ago. I ran the test, overall score on mine is 2170. it would be interesting to see i5 score. i7/256: Overall : 2170 CPU Mark : 4282 2D Mark : 687 3D Mark : 602 Mem Mark : 1771 Disk Mark: 2159 Anyone with i7 can post the memory and disc? Mine numbers...

PassMark overall Score is 2170 using ver 8. CPU mark is 4282. SF3 Pro i7/256 out of the box, no tweak, no nothing with power plug in.

NIKE!

I picked up SP3 i5 when it was first released, and returned it after few issues I had after few weeks. I was at Best Buy today at they happened to have SF3 i7. I ended up walking out with new SF3 i7/256gb. I guess, I am back to this community.

I have been using SP for months now. I am very happy with its performance. It's a little heavy compare to rest of today's tablet. I was so happy with Surface Pro tablet and I decided to get Surface Pro 3 i5 8GB/256GB. After little over a week with SP3, I returned it due to few different...

I too returned mine yesterday. Not because I didn't like SP3, I don't think Sp3 is not ready for prime time.

As much as I like SP3, I decided to return mine today which was second unit. WiFi issue and cpu throttling due to heat just don't cut it for me. Seeing the same issue with RDP here. You will have to do few workaround to make it workable. I am going back to my SP1 for now. I will wait till...

Good find, Ctitanic... I ordered one as backup pen. Thanks.
