Wait a minute..how do I download the youtube app from store? It's not there I like my new surface pro, but am missing youtube and Prime apps. Can someone help?
Microsoft Helps i have to still admit that although all my services/products and apps and subscriptions are dominated by Microsoft (in my iPhone, Xbox, and MacBook), I still cannot get over the UI experience of Windows. It’s too complex for Apple users to get over on. I almost bought a Surface laptop 💻 3 . Deep down I knew I wasn’t going to be happy with the user face, so I bought a MacBook 💻, even though the Surface hardware is equal or better than MacBooks. Lure Apple users with the software/user interface. I seek simplicity and cleanliness
I honestly always type way faster with a keyboard, even when typing on glass. For me the pen is more for sketching or things like that, but still searching for its value. Thanks for the video 👍
I was feeling unsure about my purchase of the Surface Pro 7. This video alone was eye opening and helped me understand functionality much better. I'm excited to start figuring out what it can do. Thanks for the info!
I think the only thing mac has that the Surface Pro does not is a indicator color change on the charging cable when fully charged. Or am I missing something? My mac's charging cable would change from orange (charging) to green (fully charged). My Surface Pro stays white and you have to hover over the battery icon to see the time remaining until fully charged. Which is extremely minor. And isn't a huge deal, I just found it odd.
I have recently purchased the Surface Pen (Microsoft) to be used in conjunction with my Surface Laptop and I must say, it is an excellent product. "Simplicity" and "Efficiency" are what springs to mind. 😎
Even though this video is from last year, it certainly helps knowing that instead of seeing my terrible handwriting I can now have it automatically become neatly typed words. I don't know if I will do this instead of using the keyboard, but it certainly is nice to know I don't have to set down my laptop with the foldable keyboard if I want neat words.
Very detailed! Funny story! Just bought the Surface Laptop Go and said wow, cool! A pen to go along with it! Got it and the inking is not compatible 😂😂 so now I’m gonna spend more money on one I can write on and keep the laptop too!!! Wasn’t even thinking about a pen at first!
Does anyone know how to set up the pet with the button working as an eraser? I got the pen almost a year ago, and somehow (I can't remember) set it up so that in the art program I use, I can erase with the button like a normal pencil. This was very helpful, saving the time it took to change tools. I lost the pen for a few months, and recently found it. I paired it with my surface go again, but the eraser function is gone. Any help would be appreciated :D
I'm sure this all works really well during the time you're not trying to violently put your forehead through the screen after hours of dealing with and troubleshooting any number of windows many characteristic software "surprise mechanic" quirks.
Do you have to stop writing after each word for it to recognize the word or can you just continue writing? I initially go the surface pen but ended up returning it because I couldn't find the use for it. I said to myself, there's gotta be a much better use and it should work on most apps.
Is there a way to use the window u're wrinting on as a magnified view of where u're trying to write in the screen? Like the app notibility's zoom feature?
Hello and thank you for doing this video. Could you please explain how to use the pen to take notes and hold your hand in the screen? I am having problems to write with my pencil because I the touchscreen doesn't recognize the pen when I hold my hand, and very uncomfortable to use it in the air. Thank you and look forward hearing back from you
I have a pen from my HP laptop but I'm considering getting a Surface Pen. My only issue with these pens is the buttons being so flat. It makes it hard to feel for and use without taking your eyes off your work. I've also found that even using the on screen keyboard is much faster than using a pen, but for design and signing documents the pen is nice.
The only thing I don't like is how the eraser is on the back. The older pen had the erase button before the right-click button, and it was far more convenient.
Why the additional 'tap' when holding the right click button? Wouldn't just pressing the right click button on the side of the pen been enough? It makes digital painting really frustrating as i have to hold the button and tap the canvas to bring up the brush options...meaning i have to make an unnecessary mark that has to be erased everytime. Why?
I want to use a stylus as an actual mouse - scrolling/touching on my desktop surface rather than having to touch the screen for input to take place. Does such a thing exist?
I have phantom touch problem in my surface pro 4 ; I wonder if the screen of Pro 3 is compatible with that of Pro 4?!! Because I was looking for Pro 4 screen one cable but Microsoft no longer produce it..
Hi I use MIcrosoft Surface Pro 4 . I connected my pen to Surface and its button is working do screenshots but Icannot write with it. What do you think problem is?
How do you select portion of graphic or photo to save in a file? Accustomed using Samsung pro and press button on pen to select an area and save to scrapbook before it stopped working
I've bought Surface Pro7 and keyboard in Alcantara, 2 weeks ago, and now I'm looking for the Pen but I am very confused on my choice about the weight, since the Platinum model weighs 50g while the Blue Ice model (like my keyboard) weighs 400gr. Why? I draw a lot, so I don't want excessive weight to tire my wrist, but I have to understand why, and if weight means better or different performance. I want to buy it soon, thanks if you want to help me understand which one to choose. They both cost the same.
I’m quadriplegic and having to hold a button down on the pen to operate a function just ruined using it I had to sell my surface pro because of it. Apple on the other had has the accessibility AssistiveTouch. Also to copy and paste you just have to double tap a word and it gives you options that Microsoft doesn’t. I brought this up with windows and they pretty much said it is what it is.
Is this plastic cover important? I mean if it has been removed then will it hamper the connection? I have replaced the battery but iam not able to connect it. Does it has a node or something ? I remember that has been removed by me by mistake, it was a small chip which had 2 small square golden coloured with black background, it was a very small chip
