Does anyone have headaches or eyes strain when using the surface pro 4 ? I was researching about the sp4 and found out that there's this PWM which exist in sp3 that will cause ppl to have these problems.

Anyone knows where to pre-order the Type Cover 4 with fingerprint reader?

Excited for it, quick login and ability to purchase on Microsoft Store using fingerprint.  rclxm9.gif

I saw it on lazada. U can purchase d no need preorder. But more expensive tho 600++. For me is unreasonable

Is it available in Harvey Norman locally?

I don't think it is available in Harey Norman yet. U can call them to find out.

QUOTE(Lego Warfare @ Mar 17 2016, 04:15 PM)
RM600+ is the normal retail price. Considering the normal type cover 4 already RM500+, quite obvious the fingerprint version would cost at least RM600+...

If you are using sp4 I don't see any point having the fingerprint sensor, you already have windows hello in sp4 which is more efficient. But if you are a sp3 user I can't say much lo considering there's no windows hello and the fingerprint sensor would makes thing easier.

Todei gemfive called me and said that my sp4 is out of stock...which kinda knew it already. Should have told me in the beginning not after 2 weeks time.. Then the staff told me that they will try to source with other companies to see if they would supply the product or not. I wouldn't have high expectations on tat..

If I ask for refund straight away I have to wait for another 2 weeks so why not give them another chance...

Thank God I received my sp4 m3 today, quite excited!!!They managed to source with the vendor, and it was from sen heng.

Anyhow, do you recommend to do a clean install?
Another thing is everytime I wanna type, the keyboard doesn't come out itself I have to press the virtual button manually to type.

how was the performance?

Not sure yet, will test it out later on

Congrats! How's it so far?
From the start their main source for SP is Senheng, probably their dept for online 3rd party merchants got allocated more stock now.

Click on tablet mode (swipe from right to left for the settings) and the on screen keyboard with automatically pop up.

Probably...

Can't say much about it yet cause only use it for few hours. But just light browsing and opening few programs the device itself can get pretty warm. Checked the temperature it was about 42 degree.

Do you think I should update the windows update.

Oh yaaa just figured it out. I got to get a type cover soon, not sure which colour to go for. hmm.gif

Guys I need serious help!!!

I fresh installed the windows 10 on my surface pro 4 using a bootable USB and deleted all the partitions. Everything was smooth I got a newly installed windows 10.

I created a recovery image backup in my hard disk. And now I have a hard time restoring the image. I don't know what to do next.

Am just wondering if there is anyone here flip they type cover the other way round when use it in tablet mode.(what i mean is the keyboard will be facing inside instead of outside)will this method brings any problem for prolong use..
*
Yes, prolong use will make your hands tired. Just kidding

Edit: Did u mean when u fold the keyboard underneath the surface while the keyboard is facing upward instead? Never tried that b4 tho.
