I've seen Microsoft admitting to issues with the screen cracking on the Surface Laptop 3 (which I own, but have not had that glass crack) but Surface Support claims the Surface Book 3 is free of this issue.
I have the Surface Book 3 13.5" i7 with 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD purchased from Microsoft in August with the extended warranty. I've had nothing but issues with this device since purchase. (I've also got the Go, Laptop 3, Pro 7 and all the peripherals to go with them.) To top off blue screen errors, issues reading SD cards, random restarts, sleep of death issues, and hours of troubleshooting including re-imaging the system multiple times, a crack / fracture appeared on the screen overnight when the SB3 was sitting on my desk (sometime between 2 am - 6 am) in a shut office with no pets, kids, or even a fan running. There is no impact point or other visible cause just a crack in the glass along the bezel running from the speaker cutout on the left to the right mic cutout.
Any one else having issues with the glass on the Surface Book 3? I've noticed this devices runs really hot (and read lots of complaints about it), could the glass crack because of the heating / cooling cycles? Is 32 GB and an i7 just too much for this small frame?
I talked a friend into purchasing a SB3 at the exact same time (they rode on the UPS truck together!) and they are not experiencing any of the same issues I've had. Did I get the only dud?
