Thanks. But will the quality be the same on my tv?

It should be the same unless your TV is a 8k resolution TV

Microsoft extended warranty (Microsoft Complete) is not available in Malaysia. Other retailer might have extended warranty like Harvey Norman, Senheng...

Only ever reached out to MS support once years ago for the SP4 screen flickering replacement. Very good experience. Aside from that, no other issue which warranted contacting support

Hi how do you guys "rename" file name using a shortcut?
On normal Windows keyboars there are F keys.

I need to rename hundreds of photos for each job for my work.
Usually it works fast as I just press Alt + F2 if I am not mistaken but there are no F keys on Windows so I will need to click and select rename from the pop up box.

I bought SP for this reason, to make my workflow faster back to how it was with my Windows laptop but now it doesn't have this function.

If you are using Surface Type Cover, the F2 button is just above number 2. You can toggle Fn button to enable F1 to F12 permanently or press and hold Fn button while pressing other Fnumber key.

To rename a file, just select the file and press F2 (if Fn is toggle) or Fn+F2 (if Fn is not toggle)

The F1 to F12 keys are same row with Esc key, the word is very small but still can read it.
The Fn key is just in between Ctrl and Windows key. The light on Fn key is an indication whether Fn key is toggle ON/OFF same like Caps Lock key.

Hi there is this tiny dent on my new surface book 3 that I just got today, should I contact microsoft about it and will they do anything or just scuff it over. I do not believe it is something that I did but rather a manufacturing defect

Hi folks, i'm considering to purchase a Surface Laptop 3 i5 matte black 13.5 inch model for general productivity (i.e Microsoft Excel/Word/Powerpoint), Video editing (rendering 1080p quality) and light Photoshop/ usage. I find the 3:2 aspect ratio to perfectly fit my needs compared to the wide 16:9/16:10 seen on the Dell XPS 9300.

Can anyone here using a Surface Laptop 3 advise on the following:

- Is the automatic adaptive brightness issue fixed by allowing the user to manual set this in the settings or is it something that still exists after firmware updates?
- Does anyone's unit suffer from the known screen crack issue that even Microsoft aknowledges to affect some models? (Source: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/surface...12-9a66c7df6167 & https://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/comments/e...racked_screen/)
- How is the average battery life like for basic productivity usage (as per the ones i mentioned above)?

Thanks!

I don't have a SL3, so cant answer your questions and will leave those to someone else. But just want to highlight that Surface Laptop 4 is estimated to be launching in Jan 2021 - which means possible arrival in Malaysia in Feb/March 2021. Just consider if you can wait, especially if you're into video editing since the SL4 should come with more powerful integrated graphics.
