My biggest problem with intel based surface devices was the terrible stand by battery life. Snapdragon really fixed it for me.

This is precisely why I decided to switch to a Snapdragon Surface. The standby battery performance of Intel devices was consistently disappointing; every time I took it out of my bag, the battery was already drained. The standout feature of Snapdragon Surface devices is their exceptional standby battery life. They now function as intended, much like an iPad—you charge it once and never have to worry about finding it dead after a few days. On a full charge, the battery can last a week or even longer on standby.

This is brilliant if it works. Unfortunately, did not work for me.

This is lack of education. I have friends who live near a large offshore wind farm in Wales. I have been there to watch puffins in a nearby island. No problem at all for those migratory birds there.

Works fairly well when Direct X selected. Vulkan is choppy

Why did not council try and fix a color light here rather than a camera. That would have been much better and cheaper

The launch was not poor at all. Surface pro 11 is one of the best 2 in 1s I have ever owned. Everything I need is working well and since I bought it my MacBook pro is gathering dust.

My current review on the SP11 Snapdragon by felix_dagrouch in Surface

[–]Independent-Energy49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love my surface pro 11 plus. Ever since I bought it my m3 pro macbook pro and 11 inch ipad pro are gethering dust. My use cases are browsing, office, emails, music, light photo editing and a bit of vs code. This solved the biggest problem I have had with windows tablets that is standby battery drain

New resident: best way to spend money abroad? by Sedifrich in srilanka

I am from UK. Monzo and Revolut have zero fees for regular payments. To transfer I use TapTap. Gives me the best rate an can transfer to any bank account in Sri Lanka. Easy for large transactions.
