Why would you return the surface pro 3 over a clicking noise in the hinge? There are far worse issues a sp3 could have...

Mine has been making a click sound since I got it one month ago. Absolutely has not gotten worse. I didn't even think about returning it because like I said, it doesn't cause any other issues. The pop noise seems to be normal too (many on this website have it).

Worst case scenario though, if you are out of warranty you could always just use the surface pro 3 docking station can't you aha

The Hinge is very similar to that of a laptop hinge, or a Nintendo DS hinge if you guys have one of those or tried them. They have the exact same mechanisms.

I found the solution for anyone interested. It seems the OP may have had a glitch where it dies quickly after 10%, but my issue was when my laptop hit 6%, it immediately shut down (or went into hibernation). The reason for this is I checked my battery settings and it said that at 6% (critical...

Actually, this exact same thing happened to me. Exactly the same. I get flawless battery (about 6-7 hours on 45%ish brightness) and then it gets to 10%, then BAM dies. This only happened once by the way. This must be a glitch with the battery and it's battery saving mechanism. As soon as it...

From there where do I go? I am on the device manager but I see a list of things I can click. I click firmware but I get another list of things to click..

Guys I think I have been convinced to keep it. How can I check what firmware version I have? I want to make sure after the system restore it is up to date.

I love my surface pro 3. I really do. It looks beautiful, the screen and resolution are amazing, it is light weight, portable, small, but still good enough to be productive. It is the perfect student computer. But ever since I browsed these forums, paranoia has struck me. People that owned...

Your issue sounds extremely severe. You probably want to exchange it. People had similar issues on the SP2 but it never escalated to the point where you claim it to be (the top of the bezel is coming right off) Can you post pictures for us? I had my SP3 as long as you have and my bezel appears...

That is good to hear. My biggest concern is the kickstand starting to sag aha. I know we have a one year warranty but at the same time, I know I'll spend a month trying to get microsoft to send me a replacement that is probably worse than the original anyway.

This guy seemed pretty neutral on the surface pro 3 the entire review (mentioned the positives just as much as the negatives) and then at the end he instantly jumps to basically saying it is complete garbage. What? Anyway, he isn't the target audience for this product, that is why he is under...

Overall how is your surface pro 2? Does it still work well? It seems like everyone on these forums (look at the SP2 boards) is having major issues with theirs and it hasn't even been a year since launch. I am hoping this w2ill not repeat on the SP3, as I am hoping it can last between 1 to 2...

It seems like every windows 8 machine (and many mac users have issues with this too) is having issues with sleep mode (going into it, coming out, etc), and this surface pro 3 is no exception. My surface pro 3 was in sleep mode earlier today, and when I tried to awaken it, it would not turn on...

I would like to add also that when it is set on a table or a surface, the kickstand is very stable (I can violently attack the screen with my finger and the kickstand won't wobble. It only wobbles back a bit the instant it touches a hard surface like a desk, and also when you do the thing the...

This here is not my video, but it appears that this person's surface has a kickstand that wobbles exactly like mine. I even went to bestbuy and futureshop to see their models and they all wobble like this too. Is this cause for concern? Will the surface pro 3 in the long run end up not being...
