Did you do an update install or a full format reinstall?
My experience so far [and I haven't touched my blade pro yet] has been exemplary on both my desktop and my SP3.
Both were update installs from win 8.1, and in several hours have not had a single issue with either [though Synapse tried to update before Win 10 was even finished installing. . then said there were no updates? /shrug.
On the flip side, Razer had issues with win 8.1 initially as well. -
Clean install from USB Thumb drive, using the X64 ISO.
Upgrade installs = slower systems, more issues IMHO -

From everything I've read, Windows 10 has been the exact OPPOSITE of the above quote. Those that have attempted clean installs have had nothing but issues, while upgrade installs seem to come off more or less flawlessly. I upgrade installed my desktop and SP3, and the only issue I had was with the nvidia driver, which a clean reinstall resolved.
As for why I'm attempting to resurrect this thread, I was wondering if you'd managed to smooth everything out and get it working, or if you moved back to Win 8.1? I'm strongly considering updating my 2014 RBP, but I'm a little concerned about SBUI [which, coincidentally enough, never HAS worked quite right fo rme] Not having to deal with split screen app window + being able to resize apps quickly became WAAAAY to convenient. -
So far so good, mainly testing on it, not my daily driver. I've been busy testing Yosemite, L Preview, and work to game on my Blade.
Youtube app works on SBUI, thats all I've teted
Windows 10 on an R4
