Returned the SP4 but not because of issues

[decider]

Here's my story with my Surface Pro 4(s)

• Preordered mine, and MS wouldn't let me preorder Complete, but they said I could after it's shipped. So I did that. MS Complete was then available, and they wouldn't let me get it. I returend it.
• Second SP4 with MS complete this time gave me some bugs... I had to reformat it MULTIPLE times... and Surface team was ******** and actually messed it up A LOT WORSE than it was before! BAH! Returned it.
• Got the third SP4 and it worked JUST fine! Loved it ... I used it SO much that I returend the i5/4gb/128 model
• for the i5/8gb/256 model !!!!!!!!!! Been using it, not many issues. Battery life for me is ALWAYS above 6 hours. I can't complain about anything. It runs well! Well, that's not true, battery drain during sleep. I don't even know if it's an issue any more since I have mine set to sleep only for 30 minutes and then hibernate....

I have never had the battery drain issue starting with my first SP4. Hopefully the latest ones I received will be as good as my first SP4 purchase

We do, go to Settings --> Personalization --> Start and turn on "Use Start Full Screen". Anything pinned to start can be moved to existing groups, new groups, tiles can be resized or removed.

I said all apps menu, not start screen. The list of all apps is less functional with less features. The old list was full screen and could be sorted by date installed, type or alphabetical. The new list is ok, but they should bring back the old way as an option.

I'm literally getting 10-11 hours out of my SP4. It lasts a whole day of work for me. Typing, blogging, reading and few YouTube videos here and there.

How if you aren't crippling it ? Everywhere I read the best was around 7 hours and change. I have no interest in crippling it myself and while I know my demands are high I dealt with my problem and couldn't be happier. I get around 6 hours with full brightness and apparently had Bluetooth on with my MacBook Pro early 2015 edition. Bring it down more realistically for school and I should get around 10-13 hours with it at below 50% brightness. I love the sp4 form factor and hope they improve battery life down the line so I can enjoy it to its fullest and get great battery life.
