It has been a while since these accessories first went on sale, and I managed to pick up the Surface Bluetooth Keyboard over the past holiday.Īfter using the Surface Keyboard accessory for about a month, here are my thoughts. Surface Pro 4 Keyboard Backlight Bluetooth Keyboard Over While Surface Studio is impressive on its own as a stand-alone device, Microsoft coupled it with a series of new Surface-branded accessories, including Surface Dial, Surface Keyboard, and Surface Mouse. Surface Pro 4 Keyboard Backlight Series Of New Its not to say that it doesnt have its shortfalls, though, since I tend to sometimes press the Insert key which is placed so close to the backspace key, ultimately causing overwritten text when I am typing up a storm.
If that doesn't work, use this two-button shutdown process to make sure your Surface turns off completely: Press and release the power button to turn your Surface back on.If this happens, continue to hold for the full 10 seconds and then release. On some Surface models, the screen may immediately turn off when you press the power button.Press and hold the power button until the screen turns off (about 10 seconds), then release the power button.Note.The official Microsoft instructions give you 2 options: It’s more stable with the latest firmware of the Pro 4 and the dock, but still not responsive every now and then. Surface tablets seem to have major issues with switching between power states, especially in combination with a Surface Dock. We have several Pro 4 tablets here, all with these symptoms every now and then.
These tablets respond a bit different to the power button than a normal PC. Try to press and hold the on/off button for at least 30 seconds, this resets the Surface.
