Microsoft Surface Go Review | Trusted Reviews

 

Microsoft's new Surface Go is a solid tablet for those Windows 10 mega fans. But does it have performance to rival Apple's iPad and Samsung's Galaxy Tab S4?

Windows 10 gives users plenty of freedom ; Extremely portable ; Kick-stand offers versatility

Pricey considering Type Cover isn’t bundled in ; Low-powered performance ; Dated design

One for Windows enthusiasts.

Microsoft Surface Go review

 

The ultimate 10-inch tasker's tablet

Excellent design ; Surprisingly strong graphics ; Decent price ; Fantastic display and speakers

Still no accessories included ; Less powerful than an iPad ; Screen could be sharper ; Windows desktop mode feels cramped

The Surface Go is a gorgeous machine that brings you an excellent Windows 10 experience in a 10-inch tablet.

Microsoft Surface Go review: The ultraportable laptop alternative

 

The Surface Go is a super portable 2-in-1 that's great as a second go-anywhere machine. Unfortunately, battery life isn't great and once you've added

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

Microsoft Surface Go review

 

Pick me up before you Go-Go

Like a mini PC ; Facial recognition ; Great at multi-tasking ; Stylish and sleek

No accessories included ; Screen could be better

It’s your go-to for tying up loose ends at work and then kicking back and streaming box sets until the sun comes up

Microsoft Surface Go

 

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: 10-inch Windows tablet coming Aug. 2 for $399

 

The cheapest Surface is more portable but less powerful -- and you still have to buy the keyboard cover separately.

Surface Go review

 

We reveal if Microsoft's diminutive new device is a good choice for designers and digital artists.

Fantastic inking experience ; Bright and punchy screen

Poor battery life ; Expensive peripherals

The Go’s digital inking support just keeps getting better, and – despite the poor battery life and lack of gaming capabilities – the Go is a serious player in the increasingly competitive market of hybrid devices.

Microsoft Surface Go review: Great for lightweight work on-the-go

 

Surface Go is Microsoft's latest product in their budget line. It follows the design language close to Surface Pro 2017 series, rather than its predecessor, the Surface 3. With that, how is it different from Surface 3 and the Surface Pro 2017?

Brilliant display;Slim and very light;Very compact and stowable;Excels in certain use-cases

Only 1 USB-C port;Type Cover and Surface Pen are optional;Performance could be better;Expensive
