I'd prefer Surface 3, mainly due to the size. Of course, compromise with the Processing power. Another to consider is that, I can use powerbank to charge Surface 3, but not Surface pro 3. That is the convenience.

Too bad, that link that I shared have been suspended. I think good response.

That has also trigger the need to buying extended warranty for 2nd year and 3rd year, taking consideration that the repair cost is so high.

So, TCO for this device is damn high..and so far how is the durability and reliability compare to Apple product?

does anyone know where can i get a quotation for surface? im not keen to walk in to any retailer store now.

There are Surface for commercial (not surface pro), example:

Consumer model: the 64GB is 2GB RAM, Windows 8.1 with Office 365
Commercial model: 64GB is 4GB RAM, Windows 8.1 Pro, without office 365

There are a few authorized reseller which you can find from microsoft website.

If you opt for consumer model, I guess retailer is the only option.

the machine i get is RM4000 bundle with type keyboard,2 years of Microsoft office 365 and GST. (it is a promotion package cannot be excluded any items from the above)

actually im regretted did not get this machine on last year  cry.gif  its slightly cheaper (before the RM currency drop) and got the chance to play with it before pro 4 is out  cry.gif  cry.gif  cry.gif

Strange, the price is quite high, maybe because of the bundle of office 365 for 2 years.

I saw this:

What services did you disable to optimize the performance?

I just got very disappointed with Lazada.

I saw this deal on 27th Oct (waited many days for it to put it online, coz it was Coming Soon for few days), and managed to placed order and order went through of course.

Waited two weeks, and called up twice and confirmed got stock. Yesterday I called and confirmed again they have stock and will ship out and ETA 18th Nov.

Then this morning check status again, merchant cancel the order and said no more stock.

Now, they just proceed with refund.

If the merchant cannot full fill the sales, why put it up? Or, conspiracy that maybe they are making a loss then decided to pull out and say no stock?

cry.gif ...

What would you do? Take the refund and shut up?

Do you guys think that it is a con-sales?

Lots of report in forum also...
They either fail in control their stock level or try to cancel the discount

Meanwhile I'm the lucky one to receive SP3 + type cover @ RM3.7k

yeah, I am new to lazada and just now just typed in google, and I am not alone....

Some even said they took our money to roll.
Anyway, what is your spec of SP3?

sorry to hear about your ordeal.

I bought my surface 3 from Lazada just recently too but for the lower spec of 2GB/64GB. It went thru fine. I have only positive experience with Lazada purchases.  perhaps that particular vendor is the one to blame. Do complain to Lazada as the vendor will be penalized

My surface 3 order was RM1,999. Do you think they would want to sell it so cheap? doh.gif

So i called thudnermatch just in case. And i got a totally different response. Apparently this time I was told that the items are ready and packed but they are just waiting for the included free gifts to arrive and it should be sent out within the week. Im not sure this inconsistency in response is funny or sad sweat.gif
*
Just be aware, mine was similar situation. Waited for two weeks, and until a Thursday they said things are ready to ship out, and Friday deal canceled by lazada, claimed that no stock.

Plan to get a surface 3, does anyone recommend where to buy with cheapest price? i saw senq is only RM1999...by the way, how much for the adobe software?

I think plenty of promotion for 2GB RAM, 64GB storage model.

For 128GB, 4GB RAM, so far price has been up to 2.8k. I managed to grab one from Ensogo with RM2.3k.

Why I couldn't use my hand phone charger to charge my Surface 3? Under power?

Could be the cable.

But, I have used a Xiao Mi 20,000maH powerbank and its original cable and able to charge.

How many hours can your Surface 3 battery last? Mine only like 6 hours, i think 7 hours is a dream.

Is that normal?

Hi,

I need a bit of advice and help for my Surface 3 (not pro).

The keyboard sometimes can be detected, sometimes cannot. When it can be detected, it work very well until it loses "signal" to the surface 3, then I will need to wait....it will come back.

I ran the surface diagnostic tool, and it still the same symptoms, and I finally reset the whole surface 3, and it is still the same.

I am not sure how do I get /where do I get a support for this, moreover, cannot confirm that the keyboard is dead also, thanks in advance

If you can, try to connect another Surface 3 keyboard to your Surface 3 computer. If the problem continues, it might be due to something wrong on the Surface 3 computer itself.

Thanks, I was thinking about that too...but who is kind enough to borrow me a keyboard to isolate the problem? rclxms.gif

I can buy him a starbucks or a McD Dinner. icon_question.gif
