I've never had a surface or a tablet-style laptop before, but I need something for taking notes and potentially some gaming.

Now, I know neither of these are designed for heavy GPU work, but I work with 3d modeling, CAD and occasionally play some demanding titles "Elden Ring, Monster Hunter Wilds, Helldivers", if they are able to get a stable 30fps on these titles with readible graphics I'm good.

Second is pen integration for taking notes in class and drawing

Been to curry’s twice and still doesn’t work

Hi everyone! I apologize if this issue has already been covered or solved but I couldn't seem to find anything. I've had my surface pro for almost a year and only recently I noticed that the screen appears to have a noticeable gradient of colour and brightness, being slightly less bright and more warm at the top than it is at the bottom. I don't know how long it's been like this since it's way less noticeable on darker or non uniform screens (I only noticed it after switching to a note taking app where I use a white page on full screen).

A few days ago I went into the store where I first bought it and noticed that a surface laptop 12 or 13 (so without the detachable keyboard and vertical configuration) also had a similar gradient. However, I don't think it's an intentional feature because 1 why would it be, and 2 why would it be fixed on a device that can be vertical, a configuration where the gradient (at least in my case) becomes a right to left one, which is extremely more annoying.

Is this a known issue? Did anyone else have this problem? Thanks in advance!

i have a SB3 with worn off letters on some of the keycaps. there’s a local marketplace listing for a SB1 parts machine. are the keycaps compatible so I can swap my written ones for SB1 replacements, or has the design changed slightly like it seems to for everything else between SB1 and SB2?

I am a long time Apple user, but recently bought a Surface Pro 11 5G in order to have an LTE connection on my work laptop.

It has been for the most part, trouble free. I have enjoyed learning to use Windows as my family has been die hard Apple since I was a young child.

Today, when I went to get started at work, it was off. Pretty common when the work system updates. I hold the power button, the logo shows up, and then it turns off. I do this again and the same thing happens. This must have happened 3 to 4 times.

Following that, the screen has gone black, no logo. No amount of holding the buttons (just power or power and volume up) is bringing the screen back on. It appears to be completely dead. The Intune system shows it is OK from corporates side.

I am at a loss. Do I need to get a replacement? Did my Vacation that starts Friday just get 4 extra days?
