Hey Guy and anyone else with the new SP2,
On the box, there should be a sticker that features the lot #. What lot # do you have? This will give us an idea of which boxes contain the new SP2.
hello Phil IP how do I check with the LOT NO. which processor I have. I have an unopened surface pro 2 that I would rather return unopened if its the older 4200 processor.
The lot number is on the bottom thin side of the box clearly labelled as the lot number. So far, it seems that lot number 1350 and higher (eg. 1351, 1352, and a possible 1401 - lot number is just the 2 digits of the year and week number) are the new processors.
See the following thread for details:
Hey Guys just a quick update. Based off some peoples luck in this thread and others I felt it safe to open my surface pro 2 with lot number 1350.
However to my dismay it contained the 4200 processor. So if you have a 1350 and havent opened it yet, I would recommend returning it for a high lot number.
