    Finally coming to the UK!

    Yeah - ordered one each for myself and wife today from Microsoft UK via the Nectar site. Hopefully ordered the correct sizes based on the wrist measurement chart on the Microsoft site. Currently have a Fitbit Flex which was free with my Lumia and this has got me into the step tracking and sleep...

    Surface Pro charger not working

    I just posted a similar story in another thread. My charger failed after 6 months. It started to fail but as mentioned above, moving the cable at different angles worked for a short while but then soon failed completely. Now another 6 months on the same thing has happened to the replacement...

    Surface Pro UK Charger?

    I have had my Surface Pro 2 a year now. After 6 months my charger no longer worked. I believe the flimsy cable which is attached to the charger unit had broken internally. Having purchased my SP2 online from John Lewis I went to my local store and they simply exchanged the charger without fuss...

    Bluetooth connects then drops

    Not all Bluetooth abled gadgets can talk to each other. My SP2 connects perfectly via Bluetooth with two separate portable speakers but cannot connect to my Nokia Windows 8 phone. They find and pair to each other for a few seconds but then the connection drops out. I think the Bluetooth...

    Surface Pro 2 - Still worth it?

    Sky Go will not work officially on Windows 8 devices - Sky openly confirm they don't support it. The Sky forums have pages and pages of disgruntled Windows 8 Sky customers, myself included. Some have found work arounds but others report they don't work for them. I wish Microsoft could put some...

    March update brings new WiFi driver

    I use Bluetooth to connect to my printer and to a wireless speaker in the kitchen and to a soundbar in my lounge. I have a 64gb micro sd card full of movies...... all working fine. I have my fingers crossed now hoping I haven't just jinxed myself.

    March update brings new WiFi driver

    The more I read this forum, the more I think the Microsoft Gods must be smiling on me because I have never had any trouble with my SP2. I have downloaded all the updates etc without any resulting problems. I did have a WiFi speed slowing down issue for a few days some weeks back but this kind of...

    Surface Pro 2 Camera-Multi Shots?

    Reading the manual I understand the SP2 camera automatically takes several shots rather than just a single to allow you to choose the best. Mine doesn't do this. Do I need to change a setting somewhere?

    Any ideas why some tiles can be 4 different sizes whilst others can only be 2? Not a major problem but puzzling.

    Dreaded touch cover issue

    My touch cover suffered from this problem pretty much straight away but MS were happy to replace. That was a few months ago and the replacement is still OK but to be honest I do remove it rather than flipping it over when not using it. I know this is a bit of a copout but it only takes a second...

    Touch cover replacement horror story

    I can only say I had the total opposite experience when I called them (the UK office) about the same problem. Return label was emailed within mins of my phone call. I had my replacement touch cover in a few days. Really pleased with the service I got.
