Microsoft Surface Go 10in 4GB 64GB
Microsoft boasts that its new Surface Go gives you "laptop performance, tablet portability, and a stunning touchscreen with the power of Windows 10." Sounds like a winning combination!
Take it anywhere
This is the smallest and lightest Surface ever made, weighing in at around 500 grams. Its diminutive size means it can fit into any bag and be taken anywhere, yet it is packed with the processing power to do a job that punches well above its weight!
Turn a tablet into a laptop
For a quality laptop experience, simply pair Surface Go's ultra-compact Signature Type Cover, which performs like a full-size keyboard, with the lightweight and precise Surface Mobile Mouse. The result is a lightweight laptop with heavyweight performance capabilities.
A bright and sharp display
You're able to touch, view, and write on the PixelSense display, boasting a 3:2 aspect ratio and a resolution of 1800 x 1200. The result is a crisp and colourful display which is much more vivid and easy to view than many devices of a similar size.
HD quality camera
The all-important camera feature is very impressive, allowing you to take great photos and make super-clear video calls with a front-facing and rear auto-focus HD camera.
Power a plenty
The new Surface Go features a powerful Intel processor which easily handles the day to day demands of running software and apps, while the battery will give you up to 9 hours per charge.

Microsoft Surface Go review: Going for gold
By rights, the Surface Go shouldn't be that impressive. It's an undersized and under-equipped device that one would assume would be suited mainly to students, but spend some time with it and you'll discover that it's a deceptively versatile little device.- USB-C support
- Super versatile
- Great value
- Underwhelming battery life
- TypeCover keyboard is expensive
The Surface Go is an interesting gadget. It's a better work device than the iPad Pro but can't beat it as pure tablet experience.
- Well built hardware
- gorgeous display
- flexible hybrid use
- It's not exactly powerful
- Type Cover is a still a costly extra
- USB-C port lacks Thunderbolt 3
- battery life leaves much to be desired
- thick bezels date the design
Microsoft Surface Go review
The Surface Go succeeds at further miniaturising the Windows 10 experience into the most affordable Microsoft hardware to date. It works because it's fun, something Windows often struggles to be

Microsoft Surface Go review: The ultraportable laptop alternative
Few companies have produced affordable Windows devices that are firstly desirable and secondly portable. So Microsoft has decided it's time to step into the ring with the Surface Go: an entry-level 2-in-1 to the Surface range, sitting below the Surface Pro.- Highly portable
- MicroSD slot and USB-C welcome
- Robust kickstand
- Excellent optional keyboard
- Accessories up the price a lot
- Battery life is middling
- Massive bezels
- S Mode will be limiting for many
What's a PC
Very happy with this surface go from microsoft as it is easy to use and offers nice features not typically seen in other laptops. Sensitive touchscreen and keyboard. Overall a perfect form factor for daily pc tasks.
Microsoft Surface Go review: A different kind of Surface
So where does this leave the Surface Go In a unique position, which has its pluses and negatives. On the negative side, you will never get the same range of keenly priced tablet-focused apps as on iOS.- Excellent keyboard
- Superb screen
- Well-priced
- Performance can be slow at times
- Battery life isn't as good as iPad Pro
Brilliant for students
Easily set up, loads up instantly, haven't had issues loading anything super fast, bought for a friend in uni, hasn't failed her.
The Surface Go is not without its issues, but slap on a keyboard and it's a genuine gamechanger
