To be honest, win10 also usually does not properly shuts down or goes to sleep. You need manually set up a hibernation on lid close to be sure it will not awake in your bag to become a noisy heater there.

This varies a lot on hardware, drivers, and other configuration choices. I've had plenty of machines that went to sleep quickly on a lid close and would actually stay asleep. I've had a desktop which the default configuration for the network adapter would have it wake the machine any time it saw any traffic come across the interface.

My personal and work laptop, I can close the lid and know its asleep. I never get a hot bag with them. My Legion Go will almost certainly wake itself up if I put it to sleep and put it in its case. Almost certainly a hardware event causing it to wake.

I only had these problems in the first year (2015-2016). But they fixed it back then and never had problems after.

Really? I was surprised my pro laptop running windows 11 went from around 60 to less than 5% in a night while being suspended. It is brand new.

I cannot install windows 11 on the device. So problem solved ;’)

Did you try Linux Surface?

LOL, I can just imagine someone installing Ubuntu in their Surface, then seeing that several things don't work. Then they go to this repo, which is "scary" in itself for non-technical people, and then they click on the "detailed installation guide" at https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Installa...

And that's it, they are lost and tired at that point. They will just go back to Windows.

Yes of course. Without it you simply have no support for touch and stylus. It’s a great effort, but unfortunately not there yet (for SP4)
