Mms hasnt worked on win10 insidr for months

any hope for Motion Data? I'm guessing at this point that they won't bother.

I had an SP2, then got an SP3 and now SP4. be glad you skipped SP3. it had serious overheating issues, especially the i7 (whicih I had) for sp4, I went for i5 in hopes of getting better battery life. MS says the chips are all the same but Panos Panay has a long history of lying. one sad...

I had the i7 sp3 and found that the battery life was considerablyworse than what had been reported for the i5 version. anandtech found substantial disparities between i5 and i7 for the Surface Book. sI'm sure the same is true for SP4. for the SP4 I got the i5 instead of i7. happy witthis choic

Panos Panay routinely lies and exaggerates the capabilities of the Surface products. I have always experienced about 2/3 of the battery life he claimed...at best. You may know that the SP4 battery is smaller (!) than the SP3 battery. Anandtech found that it lasted about a half hour less. For...

no,not at all. I take the train to work every day. it only is usable if I can sit at a table, or maaaybe if there is a seat in front of mine to prop up the back against.

kinda dout it. I was hoping they would build a "keyboard dock" but that turned into Surface book. I have the old Power Cover, will check tonight whether it works with SP4 as it did with SP3. I used to take it with me on trips

I was also bummed about this. ended up trading today (last day) for an i5/8/256 though I really want 16/512. planning to return it for the larger model, assuming of course that they show up within 30 days of today...

I did this exact upgrade today. So far + windows hello is awesomeness. Magical + not having the fan blow all the time is a revelation It's a little lighter/thinner and the screen is a little bigger. A little faster too.

hey I think I found a solution to the battery life problem. you won't like it, but just set your battery saver threshold to 90 or 95%. it's amazing now. sure, I don't get the toast notifications when someone retweeted my retweet, but on the other hand I'm not terrified of not being able to get...

:-( that sounds bad thanks for checking

no, because most laptops have very light screens whereas the surface book has a very heavy screen. Also, one reviewer said that the surface book slides around on the table because it doesn't have rubber feet or maybe the rubber feet are very small. This seems hard to believe but if it's true it...

congrats! can you let us know how it works on your lap? a couple of reviewers say it slides off if at an angle

10572: tried to install Health & Fitness app which previously reported steps taken (lumia icon sensorcore). says unavailable after 11/1. also does not report steps anymore.

anyone get step counter to work on the new build?
