Quote: "I have the Dell Venue 8 Pro (Model 5830, so the older gen) with 14393.82 on it. It's mostly pretty good, but I'd hesitate to call it problem-free. The battery drains like crazy, like 3-5% an hour on connected standby. To put that into perspective, it drained 1-2% an hour on connected standby with TH2 It drains half the battery overnight. And, yes, I've hard reset (an unacceptable "solution" that nobody should have to do, by the way) and started fresh. It doesn't help."
Thanks for the good info and warning!
I have the same model, and have been very happy with performance, reliability and battery on TH2, so don't want to "fix something that's not broken".
But I am interested in upgrading when Redstone is "fixed", so I can get the shared notifications (esp with Android and Windows phones) feature. I really like that on my desktop, especially remote SMS texting.
BTW, did you get the update as a Windows Insider? I would hope it is not in general availability with all these issues.
Thanks again, and I'll check back here if Windows Update threatens me with Redstone.
