    Recall makes the Surface Pro 3 worthless

    Hi. What recall are you referring to? If it's the one for the power cord you are referring to, I would hardly say that makes the SP3 worthless. There are no other recalls that I am aware of. Yes the SP3 can get warm at times when you push it hard, but other than that, it should run cool. Like...

    No More OneDrive Smart Folders

    This method works but it is really slow especially for media files. I'm contemplating on going back to Windows 8.1 on my Surface Pro 3. There are just too many things that have regressed in Windows 10 and Microsoft is not fixing things for Surface.

    I'm in Calgary and got the pen loop but I never put it on cause I don't like the look of them. Looks cheap to me. I just keep the pen in my laptop/surface case until I need it.

    Hi there. I have the SP3 i7 512GB and concur with everything GreyFox7 said.
