    Microsoft replaced my surface pro 2 with pro 3

    you should be able to look at your "my devices" field on your microsoft account when they ship and see the new device designation they are sending you so if it is a pro 2 or 3 it will say that.

    Recall makes the Surface Pro 3 worthless

    dude if you want a second charger buy one. i feel like Microsoft did a good thing even bothering to replace such old cords under a recall. all they needed to do was replace the defective part and that is what they did. And as far as defective goes i am not even sure of that. Everyone knows wires...

    surface pro 3 i7 - crack corner of screen

    they were going to charge $500.00 usd for out of warranty on my surface pro 2, fortunately i was wrong and had another month of complete warranty left and got it for 50 bucks. only one i have knowledge of. wouldn't know for SP3 for sure

    TouchScreen Monitor.

    you will need to use mini DP and a USB plug ro make touchscreen work, then you will have to set the SP3 to turn the screen off when you dock as the 3.2 screen ratio and resolution will not play nice with multi monitors and touch.

    surface pro 3 i7 - crack corner of screen

    The cheapest i can find a screen with digitizer for on a SP 3 is 340.00 USD on eBay . Remember that you need the right revision number for it which means taking yours off first and reading the revision number on the back of the screen. if your cracked screen holds out another 6 months or a year...

    Is a Surface Pro 4 a good solution for my situation?

    surface PRO 3 or 4 are good choices but it depends on your extended needs honestly. you will spend 1500 dollars on an i5 model (you need that) with 8 GB ram and keyboard. if you want all the convenience of a tablet then yes this is great. if you can deal with a laptop there are some VERY sexy...

    Speaker Enhancements

    the skype volume slider will not surpass system volume in mixer and my mic volume is fine, it is the volume coming from my speakers in the skype application that is low. for example if i play a youtube video the volume is fine but in skype at the same system volume the sound is barely audible...

    Speaker Enhancements

    So i find the speakers on my SP3 to be fine but i'm having an issue with Skype being far to low in comparison with the system volume. I went into properties of the speaker to adjust and found that instead of having the normal enhancement tab it just says Dolby Audio, then turn off or on. No...

    Upgrade to SB from SP4?

    Kickstand alleviates all concerns of keyboard weight. Exactly as it does with the current keyboard. Simply adding USB c 3.1 would remove all problems as well. Gtx 980 gaming on a tablet docked to a 28 inch screen.....ahhh video editing as fast as my heart desires...ohhhh

    Battery life measuring in mins - is this battery report right?

    Looks like a battery fault to me If it were me I would backup my info and do a clean install of windows 10 or reset tablet which will re install windows 8.1. That seems to clear up many issues for me on any machine I work on where I suspect a software issue on an upgrade version of windows 10...

    Measure CPU temperature

    Because such a machine does not exist. With this machine you can go easily, travel easy, work easy and making it a bit more powerful means you can game easy. There currently does not exist a machine that can meet all these needs out of the box thus one must get creative. personally i just like...

    Measure CPU temperature

    people like to push their machines to get more performance from them. for instance building your own docking station and external cooling solution to input air into the pro 3s intake will completely stop throttling and turn it into a decent 30fps gaming rig. always looking to make our machines a...

    i'm sorry to hear you are having issues. as for my case i have received an email this very evening confirming shipping of a surface pro 3 256gb version as was my spec on the pro2. i am unsure if i should be thrilled or not as i've heard of heating issues in the newer model but there is no...

    What's the best browser to use with Surface devices?

    i use chrome mostly. i honestly cant remember the last time it crashed. years ago certainly. i do feel edge gives better battery life but without easy add blocking it is inferior for me. i do like the way you can move bookmarks in edge and the bigger buttons though. wish chrome would get a clue...
