which version are you using?

i find the icons and text too small for using.

or are there any simpler photo editing apps that you can recommend? i am not a advanced user of photoshop. would just like some simple touch up and median stacking.

How did u ask huh? I called and they say atm they don't sell replacement nibs...

I realised my nib started wearing out once I used photoshop. Photoshop on sp3 is really a pleasure to use!

ya sry guys, 128gb i5

somemore haven add in the keyboard cover.

let me save up first before making any impulse decision.

if you think it is expensive
please quote another computer with the same spec and form factor

if u dont need the form factor... please get a normal laptop
i do not understand why ppl kept on saying it is expensive when there's no cheaper or even equal form factor for the same spec out there....

haha yes.. that's what i meant.

my screen protector got this sticky texture after installatoin, where the stylus will skip when sliding across the screen.

but after some cleaning and 'polishing', it is better now. but the cons is that it get scratched after just 2 weeks of usage.

Hence, am considering a glass protector.

thanks! will consider ordering it.

yeah cuz i regret putting a normal screen protector..
now my stylus cannot slide ..and not smooth

SIAN.....

If you're downloading Windows Update Malicious app scan, then yes coz it scans the system immediately.

Went to chat with Microsoft support. Told them I think my pen nib has worn out. They offered to replace it.

Just needed to give them my details (address, name, email) and a picture of the nib.

i think you'll just need some time to run it in.

mine's ok now. prior to that, i used some dish soap to clean it, and a microfibre cloth to rub it.

nonetheless, will still try a glass protector soon, as mine has some minor scratch on it already.

did anyone of you bought the dock?

how is the speed of the network connection, when it's connected via the rj45 port?

wonder which will give better network connection speed, the dock's rj45 port via the charging port or a usb 3.0 to rj45 adapter.

Hi guys, I have a promo code which gives a $125 discount to any purchase of a surface pro 3. Is there any soon-to-be buyers that is kind enough to buy this promo code from me? I don't really have anything to spend with it.

Sharing is caring :)

Enjoy 10% discount for SP3 and accessories at Microsoftstore Singapore.

https://www.krisflyerspree.com/electricals/microsoft-store-sg

I did a comparison with the edu price, it's actually same 10% discount. Only difference is that student gets a free wireless mouse worth $33 versus Krisflyer member get additional $20 off for Office365.

If you pay with OCBC frank card you get up to $60 rebate also. Not to forget you get krisflyer miles.

Can someone recommend me a case that can close with the type cover on for Pro 3?

I looked around and I keep seeing comments on the cases that it wont close all the way or the type cover will be detached once you close it.

Thanks :D
