Microsoft's Surface sales rebounded in the company's fiscal 2016 second quarter ending December, thanks in part to the launch of the Surface Pro 4 tablet and the first Surface Book laptop, Microsoft reported.

When it comes to installation, you can do that either automatically via Windows Update service, but this means you have to wait for your Surface to receive the present update, or manually by downloading and applying Microsoft's release. However, the updates have yet to solve the battery drain and wake-up issues.

Surface Pro 4 owners get the first two fixes listed above, along with a Surface Fingerprint Sensor driver update which is supposed to improve the accuracy of the sensor.

It is quite clear after reading the update description that Microsoft hasn't fixed the battery drain and sleeping issues, even though it covers enhanced keyboard detection and stability patches for Nvidia graphics cards.

Although reassuring to see Microsoft still working on a fix, it is slightly disappointing given the Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book have been out on the market for a few months at this point. Microsoft has found this issue to be happening due to Intel Skylake chipsets. The new update has made it harder to detach the Surface Book screen. Complaints are also coming, that with the new updates, the Surface devices have stopped recognising the Surface Pen.
