    ultimate reason to own Surface laptop

    Because you can. Specs and cost wise this really isn't a great deal. I'd love to have one but would it replace my Miix 700 that has 2x the ram and storage, because it can't replace my desktop. This, in its most basic setup, seems like high end companion device. A more useful for work Surface 3

    I am completely over groove music!

    I'm going to beat the dead horse named Zune once more. That program had no problem managing my music. Groove has nothing but. Dupes of albums, splitting albums up arbitrarily, hang ups, etc. This is on windows phone, ios, and pc. They never talk to one another so playlist exist only on one...

    Which Windows Phones have you owned?

    Tilt 2-I thought that phone was the tits when I got it. Samsung Focus- really was a good phone Nokia 920- still my favorite Nokia 925 Nokia 1520 Sitting this cycle out. I'm hoping MS gets it together.

    Windows 10 ready for Surface 3? (Wifi-version)

    I have a Surface 3 running 8.1 and recently switched my all-in-one desktop to Windows 10. If you need the Surface 3 to work consistently right now, I'd hold off on the updating. I run into missing driver issues, some touch screen issues, and it still takes a while to boot up and shut down...

    Would you honestly buy another Microsoft Mobile?

    Well, MS isn't making it as difficult decision as I'd hoped. Rolling with iPhone 6 ( after I thought I never would) and besides the live tiles, I don't miss it as much. 1520 was great but the size got old and I never liked any other model as much as the 920. Almost everything that made WP unique...

    Surface 3 Hands On and Review

    Thanks for the extensive review. I am happy with my purchase of the Surface 3 so far (I took advantage of the Costco deal.) Sometimes it seems arbitrarily slow, but usually it zips right by. Sites like Si.com and the verge seem to have a hard time rendering. But it overall it has taken over 80%...

    What are your plans given leaked flagship images?

    I kept telling myself that when the W10 phones arrived I'd hand my iPhone 6 to my wife and jump on that. But Wp10 is underwhelming and the Win 10 is maybe beta+ at this stage. I miss Cortana and live tiles but I don't miss piecemeal apps with 3rd parties or subpar official. I'd be tougher if MS...

    Benchmarks are out - Surface 3's performance is slightly better than HP Stream 11

    I initially had buyers remorse when I bought the S3, but it was only after I booted up the Surface RT did I appreciate it. Then I booted up my 5 yearly of Core i5 HP pavilion with a hybrid drive. It could handle ore and didn't grunt when I worked on some Acrobat files, but then the fan kicked...

    iPhone 6: What I dearly miss from the big guy, Nokia 1520

    Yeah, Office on iOS is a lot nicer and has more features than the Windows counterpart, which is just shameful really.

    iPhone 6: What I dearly miss from the big guy, Nokia 1520

    I'm already so invested in MS ecosystem (Office, Surface 3, Xbox One, Music, etc.) that I'd hate to reinvest in another ecosystem, although my wife would probably like that. I'm hoping the next flagship (whenever that'll be) will fix some of the issues.

    iPhone 6: What I dearly miss from the big guy, Nokia 1520

    Completely agree. Yes, even after the Denim Update it is still not as fast. Post-editing is where iOS falls short.

    iPhone 6: What I dearly miss from the big guy, Nokia 1520

    One thing I forgot to mention. The keyboard on ios is horrible compared to WP. The Swiftkey keyboard makes it palpable, but still a step back.

    1520 still worth buying?

    My 1520 was great until recently, and phantom touch issues were horrific. I think I got one of very few bad models. When it was working it was an excellent phone and a great upgrade from the 920.

    iPhone 6: What I dearly miss from the big guy, Nokia 1520

    It was with a heavy heart that I went to my local ATT store and bought an iPhone 6. My 1520 had been on the fritz for months, and even after going to the MS store and having them take a look at it, it finally became unusable. Apps would spontaneously launch, the screen was unresponsive at least...
