Microsoft has started rolling out a new update to Surface Pro 3 devices. The update bring along several changes, including improvements related to battery life, keyboard, and fingerprint sensor.
Here's the official change-log for the update:
Surface Pro System Aggregator Firmware
- v3.9.850.0 increases battery life during sleep mode and improves keyboard stability.
Surface Pro UEFI
- v3.11.1450.0 improves system sleep and hibernation behavior when battery level is low.
Surface Fingerprint Sensor
- v2.2.10.8 increases finger print touch stability coming out of sleep.
Surface Pen Settings
- v11.0.311.0 enhances pen setting driver stability.
It's worth mentioning that many users of the 2-in-1 detachable have been complaining about battery life-related problems recently. Possibly, the update fixes those issues as well.
