Hi guys,

Anyone knows where to get a sleeve for surface pro 3?

I was looking online at amazon etc but most do not ship to Singapore...:/

Search "surface pro 3 cases" on Etsy, I've bought 2 handmade sleeves that look really nice and most of the vendors under the site do worldwide shipping

I've given up searching for decent sleeves, hell the MacBook Air 11" has similar dimensions and I can't even find a decent looking Air sleeve.

after using quite a while, feels quite HOT at the behind, normal?

anybody can charge your surface 3 to 100%? Mine only 99% and then it state plugging but not charging.

When we bought our surface 3, did you all register for your warranty? I never...

It will only start charging again when power drops below 95%.
Just use deplete it to 94% and charge it up to 100%.

Jan 15 update. This driver broke the miracast on my LG TV with surface pro 3


HD Graphics Family driver update (v10.18.14.4029) enhances display stability and performance, improves user experience when using Miracast adapters. Improves compatibility with DisplayPort monitors and daisy chaining.

According to Microsoft Store, it should takes about 2-3 working days. Mine was shipped out from China, and I ordered it on the eve of new year, so it took like 3-4 working days to reached me.

The driver is suppose to improve as what it stated, however it did not improve but broke miracast display on the LG TV.

Contemplating to get this or to repair my MacBook Air (2012)... Can anyone please share where to get the best deal currently? And if it's recommended to get i3 64gb or i5 128gb? Can this really replace a laptop?

i currently own a i5 256GB one and i would say, unless you have specific features you want frOm the SP3, you might be better served looking at other thin and light laptops/2-in-1 devices instead.

after considering sp3 i5 doesnt have 512gb ssd, and having a lot overheat review . i bought air i5 512gb.
some review on the fAn like commercial jet engine. lol. guess its very suitable for pilots who travel a lot and enjoy the sound.

Depends on how much of a laptop are you using it for. If it's 90% for typing, I won't recommend it as the touchpad can get overly sensitive. But if it's for quick referencing, taking notes, and occasional typing with keyboard on the go, I can't find anything else that's better than this at the moment.

Actually I'm planning to replace my macbook air. Use it for work and school assignments at home. I have another company laptop provided at work place but it is very heavy. Need a lighter and portable to bring to school and as my main laptop at home. Mainly research work and writing of reports. My friend is lending me the surface pro 1 to try out for the time being to get a feel of it. What I like about the SP3 is the stylus, full laptop functionality and portability.

Current price at Challenger is the RRP for SP3 and $50 off keyboard for members. Is there any place where there is free keyboard? Read it somewhere before.
