My Surface Pro 4, which was only lightly used, had the battery degrade about as fast as you might expect from a very heavily used machine probably due to &amp;quot;shut down&amp;quot; not actually shutting down.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pbnjeh</author><text>Finally, an explanation.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t run around enough to care about quick&amp;#x2F;instant startup.
