Pulling Skype back out of Messaging is awkward at this point. The integration seemed great in my routine usage. Now I have to remember to launch "Skype Preview" whenever my phone reboots. Putting aside aesthetics (Skype Preview looks like some Android or iOS application which isn't as crisp...

That was me [1]. It still boggles me that Microsoft pitched this device as dual-4K capable. I continue to use my Surface Book routinely, but not as a mostly-docked only-sometimes-mobile workstation. [1] Microsoft concedes Surface Book incapable of dual 60Hz 4K / Tiamat

Very interesting. When you say "HSB to HDMI" do I assume correctly that you mean USB to HDMI? Do any USB to DisplayPort adapters exist? To my knowledge, most 4K monitors use DisplayPort 1.2 and only televisions have HDMI 2.0.

Same here. It's hyper-sensitive to the point of requiring frequent opposite-direction correction. That said, I think we are talking about two separate things in this single thread. I don't know what "Super-Sensitive Touch (SST)" is, but i don't think it is related to our complaints about...

Ben, In order to run my two 4K monitors at the same time with the Surface Dock, it is necessary to: Close the Surface Book's lid, thereby disabling the built-in display. Using Power Management, you can configure the device to stay on while closed. Run the DisplayPort 1.2 4K monitors at 30...

That is interesting to me, principally because in my experience, the dock often connects the USB devices and external monitor(s) but does not charge the Surface Book. That is, the dock is providing access to its devices, but the Surface Book is running on its battery. I'm not sure if this is a...

Based on a tip from the other Surface forums, I have been able to drive both of my 4K monitors concurrently. But with several concessions that I feel are utterly unacceptable in the long term. Namely: The Surface Book's internal display must be disabled. This is accomplished by configuring...

I'm not sure what SST is; I am not that familiar with the particulars of smartphone display hardware. But for what it's worth, touch input on the 950 seems very sensitive compared to the Lumia 920 I replaced (both running as-is with no screen cover). In fact, my opinion is that the 950 is...

Different error code, but have you given the fix for 0x80070643 from Reddit a shot? https://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/comments/3vibsc/win_10_kb3122947_error_0x80070643/

Is anyone else still dealing with unexpectedly high CPU and fan utilization while locked and docked? I'm still seeing LockAppHost.exe running a CPU core pretty heavily while my Surface Book is docked and locked. It's disappointing and a bit annoying to walk into my office and have the fans...

I just replaced my 920 with a 950 and in so doing upgraded from Windows Phone 8.1 to Windows 10 Mobile. There are a bunch of rough edges, but most notably, the Podcasts app doesn't work for me. I migrated my settings over, so I know that my two podcast subscriptions were migrated. When I...

I am partially of the same mind. I too did not participate in the Insider previews so this is my first experience with Windows 10 Mobile. I've been using 8.1 on my Lumia 920 that I just replaced with a 950. Overall, I am satisfied, but I have many similar and small complaints. One is the...

Cool. I'm genuinely interested since I've not yet received mine: does that affect its appearance and/or feel? From the video, it looked pretty convincing as "metal."

Thanks for sharing the video. I've got an order pending for the Mozo black leather back for my 950. I've not yet received mind, but I predict that I'll like that it keeps a flat edge, allowing the phone to stand upright on its edge. It's a bit of a shame that Mozo decided their logo should...

For what it's worth, I've installed these new drivers and they do not address the inability to connect two 4K displays concurrently. That issue remains. But it's good to hear that they have (potentially) addressed the crashing problems others have been experiencing—though I had only seen that...
