Microsoft Surface

Is SP3 still suffering from throttling and heating issue?

Feel like getting one...

 

[eyz]

yah, apparently he contravened some sale guideline and was asked to conduct a MO instead.

I can't remember his nick, but I can PM you his no. He posts at gumtree and carousell as well.

Mod must have removed the thread. What is the seller's nick?

 

[eyz]

thanks! hope that Google will sort it out soon.

The problem is Chrome, not the model of SP3.

Amazon.com: Incipio Feather Advance for Microsoft Surface Pro 3, Dark Blue (MRSF-071-BLU): Computers & Accessories

this case is quite nice, as it is able to be used together with the typecover.

but the holes for the vents seems little.

I was very interested too and reached out to Incipio for clarification because it’s not clear from the pictures whether the keyboard would work in the following positions:
1) folded back as you would ‘cradle’ a notepad standing up
2) in the new tilted keyboard position using the new magnetic strip
3) would it be held shut by magnets or other means when folded shut

They replied:

Please let us know if there is any other questions or concerns that we can clarify for you and we hope that you enjoy our Incipio Surface Pro 3 products.

Thought that it may help those of you looking into it )

Buy from bigger NTUC Fairprice branches. Check the special Energizer battery counter.

Re

How many have tried screen mirroring your SP3 to your TV and works/no work?

It works with my SAMSUNG 55" F9000 4K TV without problem

It don't work with my SAMSUNG 32" SMART LED TV (UA32H5500AK). It just timed out.

How about yours?

 

[eyz]

thanks for the information.

i'm just considering, because it's really expensive. furthermore, there's no review and it will only deliver 3 to 5 weeks later. with that case, you'll definitely need a keyboard to act as a cover to your screen. hope that they would come out with a magnetic smart cover, without the keyboard.

btw, are there any recommended bluetooth desktop keyboard and mouse for surface pro 3? the keyboard and mouse would be alternating between my htpc and surface pro 3.

I almost bought incipio feather but remembered reading some reviews that the type cover will not stay in place when it is closed.. Or is this the new generation of incipio father?

thanks bro. but gotta wait for it. and the stand would usually be useless. if one's device is having it's cover on.

i'll take that mouse a a consideration! thanks!

was browsing the website and came across microsoft bluetooth mobile keyboard 6000, it came with the keyboard and a separate numpad. quite useful if i were to use it on my sofa, without the numpad.

but that looks like an old product, and i don't see it selling 'cheap' on amazon.

Recently had this problem whereby I cannot switch on the WiFi. When I tap on the toggle to turn WiFi on, the text will change from 'Off' to 'On' and there will be a loading circle but before anything can be found the status will change back to 'Off' Then when I try to restart the tablet will be stuck in the restart screen and I have to force shutdown using the button.

Anyone has this problem also? Using the i5/128GB model

this is where I read the review on incipio feather advance mentioning the type cover would not be able to close with case, so decided not to buy:
