Surface Pro 2 owners recently reported battery life issues on Microsoft’s forums. This is not a new issue, but it’s been quite a while since Surface Pro 2 battery life issues have been reported. The user who started the thread said that his Surface Pro 2 battery runs almost completely empty in just 30 minutes. A Microsoft MVP who offered help on the forum said that this was not the first time the issue had been reported. However, she didn’t have a proper solution for the problem, but promised she would send the battery report to Microsoft’s team. My surface is usually used plugged into power but I am currently on the road and had it shut down on me twice … so I just charged it overnight and then timed it. after 33 minutes and 16 seconds I screamed from 100% charged to 5%. Totally unacceptable.” It appears that there is some major bug on almost all Surface devices as far as battery life is concerned. The Surface Pro 4 has also been plagued by battery issues, Microsoft’s latest firmware update for the Surface Pro 3 solved only half of the problem since devices powered by LGC batteries are still affected by battery issues, and now recent reports suggest the Surface Pro 2 is in the same boat.
