    Abysmal battery life after rolling back from 10

    I'd wait for the next build. The reasons I rolled back were no touch browser, which I use heavily on my SP3 and the massive change in how the OS works, from a touch perspective, no charms, no swipe down for additional UI. As for not posting, honestly go for it. I've only had my SP3 a few...

    Abysmal battery life after rolling back from 10
