A quick update after a couple of days use,
I've found the battery life pretty poor, I haven't pushed my SP4 yet and have only been setting it up and using it for general web browsing and document work,
admittedly I've been using Chrome as my browser and have 60% brightness when on battery but its not been a patch on my non pro Surface 3 using the same settings for battery usage, at first I thought it was probably just Windows setting up indexing and optimising itself but 48 hours later there was no improvement.
Ok I thought to myself I'll start using Edge for my browser and straight away started getting display driver crashes.
Using Windows updates I've only been able to get the 11/02 firmware update so today I manually downloaded the latest drivers and firmware from MS at Download Surface Pro 4 Drivers and Firmware from Official Microsoft Download Center
its too early to tell whether this has improved my battery life but so far I've not experienced any display driver crashes using Edge
