QUOTE(thloh85 @ Jun 8 2013, 01:26 PM) I too have the "shock" feeling when touching the Mg part of the Pro. I guess this is defect by design. I heard a Sony fella told me one of Sony's lappie that uses metal back also has this "issue". I guess this is normal then I only experience "vibration" with mine. They say its normal for designs with metal bodies to be so. |

QUOTE(thloh85 @ Jun 8 2013, 05:00 PM) Yeah.. Touch the back of it with fingers it "vibrates". Try touching the corner of the metal part with your wrist and Just tested, I don't experience any shock in the corners or back, just vibrations.BTW. Selling my 3 weeks old Samsung ATiv Smart PC Pro since now I've got the Surface Pro. If you know of anyone who wants it, please let them know: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2837513&hl= (RM2750 ONLY SME not AP, I lose RM600+ using it for 3 weeks) |

QUOTE(Xirality @ Jun 8 2013, 05:35 PM) The battery life is about 4 to 6 hours, depending on how you use it. Have not tried playing games on it though.The first 2 to 3 hours I used it to install all my stuff into it. Left with 50%, some light usage like browsing and Facebook for 2 hours took another 30 to 35% off the battery. This post has been edited by Silverfire: Jun 8 2013, 05:43 PM |

QUOTE(Xirality @ Jun 8 2013, 05:44 PM) can you play Diablo 3 or GW2 on it smoothly? I think HD4000 can handle it pretty well, since low end Macs are using it Sold my D3 liao and I don't play GW2 I'm now testing it again. Starting with 90% battery and 60% brightness. See how it fares with movies and videos This post has been edited by Silverfire: Jun 8 2013, 05:45 PM |

RT = Tablet
Pro = Tablet PC To be honest both of them not really comparable as RT is mobile platform while Pro can run all the program a desktop/laptop can run. Its a very small device to carry around which can perform whatever hard task you want it to, albeit the shorter battery life 4-6 hours. If I'm not mistaken, not many laptops in the market offer 1920x1080 screen yet and with Pro 10" 1080p screen it has one of the highest PPI out there. |

QUOTE(marauderz @ Jun 13 2013, 02:46 PM) Remember that if you want to use Photoshop with the Surface, you need to install these drivers to allow for pressure sensitivity detection Without installing this there is no pressure sensitivity detection for Photoshop? Or does it affect all applications like OneNote and PDFs?http://www.wacom.com/shared/downloads/driv...ualtouch-driver You should probably put this link on the 1st post Xirality. |

It seems Microsoft have added SNS Network as their retailer.

When I bought the Surface Pro I didn't had gaming in mind. Only work. Documents and Photoshop. And Surface Pro is handling both of them really well
