The Microsoft Surface Go 2 is a new 10.5-inch Windows tablet that you can use with a Type Cover keyboard and with the Surface Pen stylus. So, it's quite a small device that features a kickstand and optional LTE with a SIM card slot. I like that you can choose up to an Intel Core m3 now but the cheapest option has an Intel Pentium Gold processor. You can get up to 8GB of RAM and an up to 128GB SSD. Out of the box, its shipping with Windows 10 S instead of Windows 10 Home. You can change that with a couple of clicks for free.
What do you think of the Microsoft Surface Go 2?

I have the Go 2 Pentium, 4 gb ram, 64 gb. Honestly, it's a steal at this price. You get an amazing screen, a 1080p webcam which is much better that those in even the most high end laptops, very good sounding speakers, great battery life (thus far), full windows 10 Home and after a few updates, this device runs surprisingly smooth- even when medium to heavy multitasking. I am sure the M3 is a much better device and I would have gotten that if could afford it. But again, just think about all the things you get at this price. If I had enough money, I would get the M3 LTE version, though. Just to get as much computing in as tiny a form factor as possible. That's what really does it for me. And people who say at the 729 plus keyboard price you get close to Surface Pro 7 territory - I'll say you loose something the moment you go into that territory; the small form factor and the big brains!
I totally agree. I just bought for my wife the surface go 2 pentium, 8gb ram, 128gb. And we really like it. It's a very big step from her surface 3 10" (2015). For student, i think you don't need to get the m3 version. Here in Canada, this one retails at 849$ CAD, the LTE version @ 989$ CAD, way to much for our budget and if you ask me, way to much for any surface go tablet! At this point, might as well go with a surface pro 6 or 5 .. even brand new (we can get some good deals online with a keyboard!!). So that's why we opted for the pentium 4425y, 8gb ram, 128gb storage @ 664$ CAD (student discount), + surface pen + keybord bundle @ 259$ = 923$ + tx = 1063$ CAD (outch). But it does what we expected it from it!
What has been your experience with battery life? And with what tasks? I'm very interested but concerned about the battery...
Battery life is decent? Are you using it in S mode? Does it give option to change to full windows home mode? Thanks!
Do you need a keyboard to use is good? Or is it also usable as a tablet? And apps and stuff?
64 GB has eMMC memory, which is bad. And the whole product is very niche. They should ditch kickstand for Go and make it 6 mm thin. Go stands for mobile, but it’s not mobile. It feels big and far, like most 10” Android tablets. Also make bezels smaller and 4:3 screen, so it would be usable in vertical orientation. Also offer free Office, at least mobile versions and start working with developers. Windows still misses a lot of apps. And sell it under midrange iPad Air price to compete. ARM version would also be useful for those who needs to test and debug ARM apps.
bezels are just the right size and im loving the color combination, great review
I don like your comment Just kidding its great // pls don get mad// im Dead
Is it good for gaming pls tell
@@mugrides6177 oh thx
Using the Surface Go since 2018 as my daily driver and only windows machine. No complains with the performance, handles daily tasks like a pro, no lag or anything. Special mention would be its front facing camera. Way better than the front cameras of many $1000 laptops, amazing for video conferencing/calling. I never game on this device. This is never meant to be a gaming machine.The only unimpressive thing about the Surface Go is its battery life. I just wish for a bit longer battery ife on this. Otherwise its still a very capable windows machine that is a 'wanna be' tablet I would say!
Yeah I've been really salivating at this device as a productivity machine for web development, something tells me it'd work great in-bed, on trains, outdoors, and on desks. The ergonomics of type covers is surprisingly good.
i'm also wondering that!
Could you please make a "samsung galaxy tab s6 lite vs surface go 2" video .... I am very confused which I should get .
Thank you 😊
Seriously! Same here!
I love the multi tasking abilities of S6. And both the Dex version and tab portrait version is great. The S pen is flawless. But I am concerned about two things:
1. how will MS office and Adobe PDF work and look on the Tab6? Can I use the S pen to write in word, ppt, excel or onenote? Or to fill forms in Adobe PDF reader? Will the tab convert it into text?
2. The longevity of the software. I have noticed that I don't like to use my android cellphone more than 2 years. The apps which are continuously released on playstore, need the system updated. Otherwise you start feeling that your device is old and needs to be replaced.
Nicely done intro. Looking forward to a more in-depth video. I'd love to see how it handles basic photo editing on Lightroom/Photoshop or Affinity Photo/Affinity designer.
It’s a testament to your channel that I have zero intention or interest in this product but yet I’m watching. I have the 2018 Surface pro6, so I have no use for this. My only wish is that they slim down those bezels at some point
Great video once again, will you be reviewing the Lenovo Chromebook Duet anytime soon? Surface Go devices look good but are maybe a little expensive for me so looking for a cheaper alternative
The SG2 (8 ram, 128 ssd, Pentium Gold) is a great small, light-weight, well-built portable COMPUTER.
I get 10 hours of continuous TH-cam viewing (50% brightness with Bluetooth, Wifi, and battery saver all on).
It runs MS Office apps and statistical software (R-studio) with no problem.
With 10 TH-cam videos playing simultaneously there's no lag or stuttering when opening a new webpage.
On the downside, speakers aren't great, needs a USB-A port, and full retail price is too high.
Wait for a Best Buy sale or go open-box (mine was only $389US)...
The 4GB 64GB eMMC Surface Go 2 is absolutely fine for Office 365, email, Netflix, TH-cam, MS edge. Multiple web pages, full blown multiple Excel, Word, PowerPoint files, multiple TH-cam channels can be opened at the same time. It reads and writes to a microSD card pretty fast. So, for a secondary PC it's worth it for business users / office goers. As a primary PC, the screen size might be a bit of a limiting factor. Overall, it's a great device even in it's lowest configuration for the type of usage mentioned above.
Not seeing any reviews on the base model which is disappointing and can only assume that MS never sent any out and that worries me. So I can only conclude that "starting from $399" is a bit of a misnomer, in the UK, starting from £639 (+£130 keyboard) for M3 version. So getting close to £1000 if LTE and pen. At that price, it is a hard buy as an M3 chip is barely acceptable on Windows in 2020. However, the consumers who buy the Go probably know its limitations and accept that. Given a choice of an iPad Pro with a keyboard and pencil at the same price as the Go with accessories it is an easy win for the iPad for me, and probably for many others.
This is not a review unit from Microsoft, I bought it myself like I do with almost every tablet. I picked the Core m3 version because I reviewed the first Surface Go and don't expect any noticable performance differences in the base versions.
@@MyNextTablet Hi, wasn't a criticism of you, just a general point. It is hard to get a review of the base model to see if it is fit for my purpose and if it is too slow and laggy for just basic use in S-mode? I fully understand if it is your own money the m3 is a far better choice, and look forward to the updates. Cheers.
Disappointed how dear the core M3 version is in the UK. Was hoping for the £500 mark. Maybe it will come down in price in a few months? All major retailers don't seem to be stocking the core M3 version
I just bought a renewed surface go 2 tablet with 4gb ram Pentium version, I hope It's good. I bought it for web browsing or taking it with me, I do have an HP victus gaming laptop, Great device. terrible battery life and it's bulky.
This is a great channel! Thank you! Subscribed!
may i say, his accent is much satisfying
Great preview video! I’m glad MS shrunk the bezels and added an M3 version. The Surface GO needed those updates! The new red type cover looks good as well! Any plans to review the Lenovo Duet?
Once the Lenovo is released in Europe, I'll review it
I just ordered mine for €240 including 21% VAT. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the price, finally some tech that's cheap in Europe, too. Yeah, newer model is out already, but I still wouldn't expect such an extreme price drop.
The only thing in this video I disagree with is that the black type cover is actually microfiber. I have the black type cover and both the outside and the inside are soft fabric. Maybe it’s varies by county, but this is at least true in the US. Great video btw!
Great video. It's really interesting seeing the German configuration for the QWERTY keyboard.
hi Andrzej, are you polish or German? Just curious:)
German but both parts of my name are Polish and I've got some ancestors from there, I think the father of my grandfather or so.
Hopefully getting this in a month or two for school.
did you get it?
Loved the hands on
hey bro, love your videos!
will you review the Samsung Tab Active PRO 10.1" or the Active2 8.0"?
Hi sir it was an really nice video
What was total cost of the se
Surface 2 +mouse+keyboard
Please reply
Iam gonna buy one,so exited😍😋
Danke, für den guten Überblick! Könntest Du einen Vergleich mit dem Surface Pro X machen? Vielen Dank im Voraus
For doing small word documents but also for some entertainment like video chatting through zoom and maybe watching movies is this better than s6 lite if I were to spend around £350-400
Alex Ridgway definitely for watching movies!
Nice video man, i hope u review chuwi ubook. its a surface clone with better price and specification.
need comparison should i buy surface go or chuwi ubook. thanks
Processor is weak but...which is better surface go or s6 lite or iPad 7
MGP Soundz they are both fundamentally different. So it’s just what would be better for you
The s6 lite is a tablet with some pc-like features and a pen
The surface go is a laptop with tablet features and a pen
nice video as always but i am little pissed about the price here in italy is like 750 eur for m3 and keyboard,i found amusing the form factor but the price and CPU are ridicolous on 2020 i prefer spend more for big brother (pro version) cause at least performance will be decent,just my opinion.
Thanks for sharing. How about its battery life performance？
Would you say its better to get the pro version for Lightroom (and maybe photoshop)? I'm a photographer and looking for a tablet device where I can upload my raw images from my sd card while on the go. Rather not go through the route of adding add-ons to the device. Looking for suggestions.
Very cool video dude, I really like the Surface line, I just wish it would have Android apps. Fortunately Microsoft is working on an Android device (Surface Duo), but I would love 1 device that run both operating systems natively. Windows on tablet just doesn’t work for most of us. But very cool video
I hope Microsoft putthe ports lower and add a second tupe c port on the other side then this thing would be a lot better, hopefully we see better improvements on version 3.
I looked into it and it seems a great device...but I'm still confused which one to buy... this one or google slate
Undoubtedly slate is a lit bit expensive but that also gives a great performance
Great review
Ipad 10.2 vs surface go 2 base
Model ... Please!!
I Wish there is Bigger Version of this Surface Go Tablet!!! Fantastic, I Can Use Windows App from Convertible Laptop in Mobile Mini Version!!!! 😍😍😍
Check out the Surface Pro 7, the Surface Pro X and Surface Book 3, if you are looking for bigger Windows Tablets.
The Surface Pro 7 is literally the bigger version of this, and also fanless for the i3 and i5 version.
Powerless windows vista
@@liquidmojo Woaw Thanks a lot of the Information!!! 🙆🙆🙆
@@jeffriart Bigger is Better!!! 😀😁😀
Thank you. Please add cc to videos.
What about battery life with basic office work tasks and a good 5 to 10 tabs open?
hi brother ,thankyou
Please do a Huawei matepad pro "4g" review
That was amazing
iPad mini 5 or surface go 2 pentium?
I already own the surface keyboard.
I just got my Surface Go 2 Core m3 to replace my iPad Air 3. It was expensive, but damn it is so good. It exceeded my expectations, across the board! It's light, but premium; a good sized screen, yet not too big that it's hard to carry; and a superb display with windows hello! Buy the Surface, you won't regret it. The iPad just feels limiting.
But wouldnt you agree design-wise ipad is more beautiful?
@@topjet7936 the core m3 is just out of my price range. I'm mainly looking for a tablet for social and entertainment use like TH-cam, twitch, etc. Do you think the pentium version is a good model? I'm currently narrowed it down to iPad mini 5, Samsung tab s5e and surface go 2.
@@277judge If you just want a media consumption device, buy an iPad. I bought the Go 2 because I need it for school work, and the iPad just doesn't have Office 365 or any real desktop apps to get work done. I'd buy an iPad for social media and videos, but for productivity, or more horsepower to get more done, then the Go 2.
The Pentium should also be fine, it's the ram that's important.
I don’t like how it dosent come with the keyboard or the stylus. Cause I don’t need both I just want one with it. I am debating on weather to get the keybard or the stylus
Good looking tablet but i'm planning to buy huawei mediapad m6 turbo. I don't know if i can buy it later
surface go 2 or 10.5 as i was searching i hope to get tomorrow with 8gb ram and at least intel core m3 or dont remember names
What your thoughts on the Lenovo Chromebook duet.
Will you review Lenovo Chromebook Duet? at that price it's better than any Android Tablet, and Chrome OS get a lot of updates.
I'll review it once I can buy it. But it hasn't been released yet in Germany, where I'm based.
Im torn which to buy:
Surface Go 2 or
Tab S6
Im a teacher and I mostly use windows apps most of the time *word, excel and pp*, minor video and photo editing for some lessons.
Im inclined into buying the surface go 2. I would love some advices/inputs on which is better and suitable for me. Thank you.
If you can afford it sure. even with a keyboard cover, tablets aren't really that great to work on
Sir Marvin I would say go 2 and get a type cover. I have a older iPad Pro and my go 2 is better to type on!
None of both. If you use a lot of windows apps just buy a lenovo or hp chromebook or something. Don't buy the go 2 it's super underpowerd for its price and the keyboard isn't even included making it extremely expensive for what it is.
Any idea as to when it might release in India
Samradh Shetty ummm i think its out
How much is the keyboard? Been planing to buy these. Perfect for students i guess
Wait you have to buy the keyboard separately?
@@tobiscape7872 yes

HI. CAN AUTOCAD RUN ON SURFACE GO2 ? THANK YOU
Microsofy should invest in its app store as that is still lousy vs stronger google and apple one.
Does This Come Wit A Sim Card Insert
can i increase resolution to 2K lik3 surface pro. in intel graphics center. plz chekc and tel
It's a shame that Apple can make a Pro device with a 12+ inch screen, yet Microsoft's lower end latest tablet gets a half inch bump up in screen real estate only? I would probably try a Go version at 12" with a pen, just for simple daily tasks and media consumption. And without the keyboard or LTE, it could probably be half the price of the Apple product! Hey, Microsoft. Anyone hear me?
An older gen surface pro will suit your needs :)
Could you do a tab s6 Vs surface go 2?
N O
Nice video❤ can you do a cases of samsung galaxy tab s6 lite video
Would the surface pro 3 pen from several years ago work on this device ? Thanks
I think it'll work but I haven't tested it...
