“ don’t buy it”
*Me waiting for it to arrive*
@eggs are beautiful I got the go on Amazon, I didn’t know it was that tiny and on top of that I get weird screen spasms here and there :( . How’s the 3?
@eggs are beautiful yeah the Go does have a lot of downsides. I got mine in gold because it looked aesthetically pleasing , maybe I should have gotten the 3 after all
Same
@@kofibonsu8466 oh is it I ordered the go laptop and it’s comming on the 27th do u still prefer the 3 over the go
And also how is the 3 going is it still running good
Austin: dont buy a surface laptop
Me watching this on my surface go: *i understand*
Yea
is it worth it?
Lol same
@@saintnick6000 yh to some extent. I mainly use it for work and works perfectly fine. I feel as though its not enough storage but i have a external hard drive and onedrive so it wont matter. Overall its good for work heck i can even use ps now on it.
@@hasnaynakhtar737 think it’s good for editing yt videos
The base spec is literally just so they can say "from $549"
Exactly
Just like how cars are lol, I sell Kias and our Sorento says “from $25,999” but good luck finding one under $30k lol
Same with the base iPad.
@@jpf1978 the issue is the RAM. you may be fine, bit it all depends on what your use case is
Let's call it the "Marketing Spec"
Ive had the original lowest configuration Surface Go for almost a year now. In Australia with the Keyboard it's $800. (not very budget) Despite this the portability and detable keyboard has been amazing for me as a University student.
The base model is much more powerful than people think. I even edited video on it.
Base version go 1 or base version go 2? Because the 1 has a built in keyboard and he wasn't referring to the 2
Mine just broke today 😭 I loved my surface go and didn’t want to upgrade to the 2 or 3 but now I need a computer.
@@HeirofaNigerianPrince how long did it work before breaking?
I preferred to buy Huawei (14 inch) because it offered more options for less money than Microsoft.
Can we just say this does not have keyboard backlighting?
I would've bought this instantly if it had backlit keyboard
At this price point what do you expect
@@sooryaunshumulawkar6700 just buy the asus zenbook 13
@Ansh Bhardwaj At that price point I would expect keyboard backlight.
@@grod3an A backlit keyboard
I found Ken be more logical and realistic than holy austin.
Ken articulated Austin's thoughts in a better way, in usual Ken style
It's called balance. Their personalities balance each other.
Totally agree. Pricing is not all about specs alone, things like form factor, brand name and R&D cost all play into the final cost. Why are Apple products so expensive for an apple to apple comparison of a similarly specs product of the same category
He's dressed like logic
@@shirrkay263 but if you buy this laptop considering that there are many other laptops with the same form factor and more performance and everything else you mentioned for a lower price, you're straight up dumb...
This is very much a case of form over function, especially at the entry level. and it will sell because of that. MS are relying on the average person that will walk into a store and will buy the one that feels the nicest. why else does the surface have that racy alcantara keyboard?
In a way isn't that ok? Maybe for somebody who doesn't really need a powerhouse and needs a good-looking laptop for cheaper than their current machine. It makes sense in some ways, absolutely not for me, but I'm sure there are a lot of people for whom this makes sense.
@@swaroopajit I mean, many people only buy Macbooks for clout so....
@@swaroopajit totally, I don't blame Microsoft, or anyone else, for making and selling products like that. It just means that the rest of us have to pay attention when shopping
I attend a Community College and I still see the 11in Pre-Retina MacBook Airs 2011-2017 often at my school. This new Surface Laptop GO is definitely for these type of College students I see around who like a small-compact laptop but don’t want a Tablet+KeyboardCase.
I personally love this MS Surface LT GO very much, U know let's say if (at home) can have a (consided 4 game & all) HP all in 1 attached with wide curved display (as its included already)+B&O sound (as its included already)+2080ti (includedas its included already)+wireless charging (as its included already)=everything perfect or MS's 1(considered 4 design & all)=Surface Studio at home then when (going out) just a MS phone/Google Pixel phone/iPhone & this Surface LT GO, well what can be better than that as now all use Macbook-air+iPhone are just same case.
Literally watching this on my new Surface Laptop Go. Did what you said and bought the midspec.
Same! Bought the midspec. This thing is beautiful and compact. In my opinion, the screen (with thin bezels) is very pleasant to the eyes and is also beautiful. The size/form factor is perfect. I just wish they had a backlit keyboard 😭😭
I'm just going to use this for web browsing, Google Docs, Sheets, Email, TH-cam, etc. nothing big.
@@PalmTree26 Yeah I honestly don't know why they didn't include a backlit keyboard. They keys are practically the same as the ones on the Laptop 3. Plus I have a couple of contacts in the industry and do you know how much it costs to put in a backlight? Literally around $20 then another $10 in the keys. I'd gladly pay an extra $50 for backlit keys.
@@PalmTree26 How far can you tilt the display to the back? all the way to lay it flat at 180 degree angle like the surface laptop 3?
My intention is to use it with a pen and write on it for a bit longer.
@@PalmTree26
How’s it going with your surface laptop go? Experienced any issue since then?
So just like I guessed: It's ok for a cheap laptop except it isn't a cheap laptop.
And it's bad
take this from someone who's used it for 3 years now
@@Hydro.131 Came out 13th October 2020....you've owned it 3 years?
@@Hydro.131 lmaoo it just came out barely a year ago dude
@@Hydro.131 lmao what? How you get it 3 years ago?

But I wanna buy one🥺😭
Get it if you want but avoid the base model.
Do(nt)
Don’t you can get something better at that price if you look for it
Get yourself a nice Lenovo laptop that has ryzen 5 instead.
They have laptops that’ll blow the “Surface go”
Straight out of the water for the same price
@@JeremyN2DP Ugh lenovos keyboards are horrendous and even on their high end "premium" devices there is deck flex
they should have made the base model with a Ryzen 3 128GB ssd and 8 gigs of ram and watch them fly off shelves at 600 bucks
@Prakhar Singh you're never gonna game on that small of a laptop. The multitasking power of the Ryzen would be quite beast in working.
The product cycle of these devices means it'll take 9-12 months for Microsoft to get it to market. Going w AMD means Microsoft has to redo the entire motherboard. And it'll be 2 separate product lines.
They have Lenovo laptops that have ryzen 5 and 225ssd with 8 gigs of ram for like 580$
I’d just get one of those instead
@Prakhar Singh for what tasks? Intel still has a lead in single threaded tasks like gaming, but ryzen takes the cake with anything else.
@@RandomnessCreates video games brainwash you
It's base specs are overall pointless, the Ram is useless, windows update alone will eventually probably bloat out the hard drive, the i5 is the only think that makes it usable. really no devices should be sold with less that 128gb storage hell even 256gb I argue should be the minimum.
As someone who works at Staples you can buy a 15.6 inch Lenovo IdeaPad with 16GB of ram, 512GB SSD, and i7 for around the same price literally every other week. Idk why people cant do their research. Backlit keyboard, not a lot of flex, and 1080p. Almost bought that over my MacBook Air.
The problem is that it's 15.6 inch. That's unacceptable I want a 12 inch I can't believe how hard it is to find a 12 inch high quality laptop.
I honestly feel happier with my spec'd out Surface Go 2 (Core M3 8GB RAM and keyboard) than I would with something like this. Because the SG2 has Windows Hello, 1080p webcam, Surface Pen compatibility, a rear cam (yes, I do use one) - whereas the Laptop Go doesn't have any of those specs. Especially if you only plan to use it as a productivity device, it's better. I think the most important thing about the Laptop Go is that it apparently has a better battery life than the Surface Go 2. But otherwise, it's not as attractive a product.
I have the SG2 with LTE in the exact configuration you're talking about. I don't 'go' anywhere without it. I use a 512GB SD card to store a ton of movies and things I download from places like Netflix and I couldn't be happier (especially with the camera and mic quality).
The MOST honest and helpful review. Thanks guys!
“Don’t buy the Surface Laptop Go!”
*“YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!!!!!”*
What pulled my hand on the Surface Go was that I can draw on it. I needed a 2-in-1, and research yielded no better results for a laptop that could draw in my budget then the Go. That said, 4gb of RAM is, in fact, too little.
Guys, it's obviously a very hard sell, but why are you comparing it to 15"+ heavy laptops with poor battery life?
cheap 15inch laptops are always garbage. They should take 8/256 model and compare it to macbook air/ dell xps / razer book etc
For $699 i just bought Asus vivobook flip 14 like last week and if i compare to this this is No go. My Asus laptop have Ryzen 4700U, 8GB Ram, 512 GB SSD and Aluminum body + its convertible touch screen and stylus included as well. It feel premium the only corner they cut is screen its not the most color accurate display but i am so happy about it. Its soo good and its really fast. If you are looking at this surface laptop then check Asus vivobook flip 14 laptop as well just that it will be out of stock always because its in high demand.
You sold me… it’ll be here in three days😪
Ya, working at Best Buy, never allow a costumer to experience less than 8gb of RAM in 2020 let alone five years ago.
My gfs surface book 1 literally thermal shutdowns from standard work (office+video call+tabs). They underbuilt their cooling solution and didn't design it to be opened up easily for us to try to fix that problem. Unless your getting a tablet just to draw or take notes surface computers are a permanent no go. You'd be better off getting a 2in1 from Dell, hp, Lenovo, etc.
I was looking at getting a surface pro and happened upon this at the store and it was exactly what I was looking for. The surface go was too small, and the surface laptop was slightly too big. This was my goldilocks perfect bed. It's portable, quick enough for my use, and I can upgrade the ssd myself at some point. What's not to like.
Can you tell how was your experience in these nine months? Thank you
I doubt Microsoft can allow you to upgrade that ssd off the shelf
@@kenbee1957 you can but you have to remove the rubbers. No big deal tho
my preference is 1) surface laptop 4 (currently waiting, hopefully it will a thunderbot 3), 2) surface pro 8 (if battery is bigger and bezel is thinner) and 3) surface laptop go.
Love the Surface Laptop go. The 8/128 unit is on sale lots of places between 600-650. Don't know what it is about this little PC but I love it. For an everyday user the Laptop go is ideal.
Gonna convince my parents that i need this for school, its half true. I could get way cheaper, but i love microsoft products even though they're very expensive.
Hey, I've resently ordered a reconditioned surface go and was wondering how yours is holding up after a year? Thank you 😊
I got an Acer Aspire 3 late last year for £300 (not bothered to check the American price) it has a 1TB hard drive, 8GB RAM and a dual core i3 (7th gen), I feel like I got a decent deal comparing the specs to other options but the only bad thing is the Hard Drive I guess, but I’m sharing this with my mum and sister for work and school, so I feel like the big storage instead of the fast storage was a better option.
Honestly, I have one, and I love it.
Hey, one question, if u play roblox, does it work good????3!3!
What about screen resolution？Is it pretty low？
Yh@@unodvidaagoat
the screen resolution is good, trust me
im not sure about roblox, but I used to play CS online on the laptop, it's good.
Microsoft should have made this flip around with a 360° hinge.
That doesn’t make sense for them, and would affect their tablet and book market that’s the same reason MacBooks don’t even come touch screen
@@marcosmartinez3411 Why? Microsoft makes the Surface tablets already and the Surface Book. Lots of manufacturers make Windows devices with 360° hinges that are laptops first and tablets second. I had a Lenovo Yoga device that worked this way. If Lenovo, Dell, HP, and Acer can make devices like this, why not Microsoft? This laptop already has a touchscreen, it's just in the most awkward position possible.
This isn't about cannibalizing anything. It's about giving customers a better way to interact with the touchscreen while still having a real laptop instead of a tablet with a keyboard cover attached to it.
@@danieldougan269 so this isn’t how they think however. And this is from someone that’s worked with Microsoft and Apple retail managers, the thinking for them is if you want something touch screen or have the versatility of a tablet you go get their tablets or iPads respectively. To them having the ability to flip it and turn it into a tablet per say is not something they want to cannibalize sales. They make way more money on their tablets. And yes I have had customers that said well my laptop can flip so why get a tablet. As long as they have tablets they will never have a surface or MacBook that works like a Lenovo Yoga to use your example. I can promise you a regular way of selling them that they tell us to use is, if you want a touch screen tablet that is tablet first laptop second, get a surface pro. If you want a standard laptop experience and the power but still have a touch screen get the surface laptop, if you want the versatility of a tablet but the power of the laptop then get the surface book which is why they are priced way higher.That I’ve been told that’s the reason a surface laptop will never get the 360 hinge.
@@danieldougan269 it's a laptop and it doesn't work with the pen. Sure it's touch, but no digitizer that works with ntrig
My problem with reviews like this is that people don't look at what the Surface is for. The Surface Go and the Surface Laptop Go are meant for younger users and regular computer users. The difference is that this laptop is solid with amazing build quality. Why would a child need a computer with 8GB of RAM....? I used to work for Microsoft and that has been my biggest issue with reviewers...look at what the Surface is for before reviewing it. It's not meant for you and me.
I know people like to crap on the Surface line, but they have the best damn webcams I've ever seen.
I got a $400 MacBook Air used with an i7, 8GB ram and a 128gn ssd. The best part, it hasn’t crashed or blue screened.
Lol boi macbooks dont get "blue screen". It doesnt run windows dummy
Unless yall need to upgrade laptops immediately, you should always wait for black friday. Back in 2018 I purchased an i7 8th gen laptop with 8gigs for $500 (plus tax). And there were a lot of i5 for a similar price as well.
On sale i got my Lenovo Flex 5 2-1 for 600$ with 16 gigs of ram, a 10th gen i5, and 512 gigs of storage. That's a better deal than any surface laptop, but when its not on sale it is 730$ tho
I just want a new laptop to do college work on the go... i think I’ll give it a shot.
I recommend you spend the extra money and get a Lenovo flex or yoga y720 or a surface laptop 2/3 out right itll last you much longer
Austin: don't buy this laptop
Ken: * buys the laptop *
The screen res at 1024p isn't bad, quite a lot better than other cheap laptops with 15" screens at 768p
@Iqbal Muhammad If you look close enough, you can see it on the laptop go, but it's still a very good resolution for the size screen that it is. It's premium in some of the wrong places.
People don't understand the resolution on this laptop is fine. Imagine they started with an aspect ratio 16:9 screen with a 1920x1080 resolution and they cut out the sides of the screen toget an aspect ratio 3:2. What you end up with is a resolution of 1534 x1024.
Now the 8gb 128 g is $550. I love mine. That 2:3 aspect ratio is wild. Like having a 13.3 inch MacBook air at half the price... Yes with some compromises. But it is a portable productivity beast. The keyboard and track pad are awesome
How is it now? I’m thinking of getting one because they are even cheaper now. The size and design are so nice. It’s like a macbook 12 inch without backlit keys
@@fightnight14 it's going great. I keep it on max battery saver and it runs anything. I also turn the screen down to 60 when working indoors. I get about 8 hours battery doing that. I got it in Oct 2021 and i have seen some battery life decrease but maybe an hour. I charge it up at home and then take it work so the charger stays home. Yeah the track pad and keyboard are still fantastic. Glad you can get a better price. Not having a back lit keyboard is not a deal breaker for me for the price.
Here's why I'm impressed; Minecraft update 1.18 adds massive rendering and terrain generation requirements, which strains a laptop more. The Surface Go not only runs the new update at 60 FPS, but will tolerate medium graphics settings, and a mid-low render distance. You can even have Spotify open in the background. For $500.
Ken Bolido am glad to see you will be chilling around here.
I do agree the mid performer is the device for the most bang for your buck. That is the device I went with. I needed a secondary device for work and one that wasn't going to cost 1k. I definitely am a fan of the build quality and I would have gone with a higher res screen over a lower res touch screen. On a laptop, I just don't use the touch screen, I much prefer the touchpad and keyboard functionality more when it comes to a laptop.
I have bought and used multiple Surfaces from original Pro, to Surface 3, to Pro 7. All of them are still working great. Can't say the same for an Acer at this price point. Having repaired & upgraded multiple Acers in the past, I wouldn't personally buy an Acer except maybe their top range.
I'd probably buy 2 8/128gb when it comes to my country in Jan 2021.
Microsoft also don't want to compete directly with oems of Windows. Granted Windows is not as big a profit centre as before but it's still a billion dollar centre.
Hmmm Microsoft discovering they have to price things similarly to Apple because they have to R and D their own software and hardware in tandem?
The meaning of this video, don’t buy the 64gb base model. But definitely buy the 128gb or 256gb. And you can up grade the 64gb and the 128gb. It’s possible folks.
If it had better storage, it would've been a decent alternative to the MacBook Air
I just bought one of these.. black friday 8gb 128gb version for 549. Really good laptop.. if it yoga'd it would be ideal. Id also say for what most people use these laptops for.. watching youtube/netflix/email/normal school stuff and buying stuff on Amazon the 4gb model would be fine.
It was a bit costly for the specs however...the 256GB SSD model with Iris Intel graphics was a great investment for me. Handles basic PC gaming (all the gaming I do on PC) without a sweat and any task I need with ease. I have the surface go 3 to compliment it for when I even need smaller travel tech.
Would you recommend me to buy a version 8gb/ 256 gb ssd for like 750 dollars? I would like to play games like rocket league and age of empires 2.
The laptop go 1 256 has iris graphics??
In Mauritius that laptop mid spec 128GB cost around rs42000 $1000 where as the 256GB cost rs 45000 $1075 everything has a 15% tax + profit
Lemme just point this out, in Australia this starts at $1249 (Australian dollars).
I got my hip omen gaming laptop for $1440 on sale would’ve been $1699.
The specs of my laptop is what puts this laptop as bad for me.
My laptop has a gtx 1650, amd ryzen 4600h, 16gbs 3200mhz speed, 15.6 inch screen. For the extra 450 dollars %100 worth it. Sure it weighs less and is much more sleek, but that doesn’t really matter.
Btw the model number en2800ax if you wanna check on the website. I’d recommend using the Australian website if irks available to you as it is more price accurate to what I said.
Take the $900 model of the Surface Laptop Go;
For an extra $270 (MSRP) you get a 13.5" Surface Laptop 3 which has:
1. Larger Higher PPI screen (140 vs 201ppi) (biggie - Cannot believe the GO is sub FHD)
2. A better IRIS PLUS graphics card (Super bigggie)
3. Keyboard backlighting (Super biggie)
4. Windows Hello Face camera (a biggie)
5. Surface Pen support (not a biggie)
6. Aluminum all round (not a biggie)
7. A glass trackpad (vs plastic)
I cannot believe that the GO is crippled in so many ways just for a $270 difference in price. You must want portability real bad to buy the GO. I was okay with most of the omissions above until I found out that it had no backlit keyboard....that was a real shocker from Microsoft. Just FYI I own a Surface Book 2 15" i7, 16GB, 512GB so I am a surface supporter. But this backlit keys thing.......super deal breaker.
I am actually really interested in the mid tier model for my teenager who needs a laptop for school. If I could make Microsoft change one thing I would honestly want them to drop the Surface connector for another USB-C or USB-A port, its time for them to move on past that port. I am honestly wondering what the performance of the Surface Laptop Go measures against the MacBook Pro 13 (or Air).
Just about any Ryzen 4500 laptop would eat this alive.
“Relatively premium” = over priced $/performance
at least with the surface go tablet you can justify that it's a freaking tablet and you pay for the tablet form factor over getting a regular laptop but this thing's a regular laptop so it's no different from a laptop and here it is being extra expensive for no reason
@Mommy Dearest yep just get a good laptop and not worry do much on brand name.
Yup totally agree. I just got a Lenovo with ryzen 5, 8 gigs of ram and 225 ssd for basically the same price as the basic version of the surface go
I get this is 2 years old as of writing this but to put these numbers in perspective, My current laptop that is a Lenovo Ideapad Core-i3 has 256 NVMe SSD storage and 8gb of RAM when I bought it was under $500 on sale and is generally ok. I got what Microsoft charged twice for at that time. If you really want a capable device that is Windows operating, Lenovo and ASUS isn’t bad. I also had a Surface tablet at one point but it sucked so I sold it.
My Lenovo Ideapad cost around 549$ with ryzen 5300u(good for light gaming) 8gb ram and 512gb SSD , 1080p 60hz screen, backlight keyboard.
Yeahh i agree surface laptop go 2 is not worth it.
OMG, i expected it to be better. There's no reason to not have an 128gb ssd on base model.
The 700 dollar one should have been 550. Hope they finally make a 15inch surface laptop with specs above the MacBook Pro 16.
I bet a huge chunk of the cost cutting is caused by the Intel processors. Same thing with Asus. One has has a ryzen 5 3500u with 1080p panel, dedicated graphics card and 512gb nvme ssd while the other one only has a Pentium with a smaller screen, lower resolution, no dedicated graphics card 256gb nvme ssd for the same price. Intel processors are just so expensive.
Getting this laptop for $899 with a core i5, 8gb of ram and 256gb ssd is still a horrible deal. I've got a laptop with double the ram, double the storage and a 4th gen ryzen 7 that beats the devil out of everything for the same amount of money microsoft charges for this thing. Like wtf
I bought a Matebook 14 AMD 2020 for £700 with £300 of free gifts with 256gb/8gb and 2k display. The £899 for the same spec Laptop Go is a joke for far less CPU and GPU and less battery life,. Why would anyone who knows what they are doing buy this, crazy!
I found a deal on Black Friday of an HP laptop. It has a 15.6 inch screen, 8gb of ram, a Intel Pentium Silver processor, and 256gb of storage. At the low price of $230.99!
It is basically a Surface Chromebook. and yes it is less than Surface Go tablet version, but it also has no pen support I believe, lower resolution screen and lower spec web cam. Seems like all Intel 10th gen's get hot.
Great review. You fail to mention it weights just a mere 1.1KG.... really light! Most laptops are at least 1.5KG.
Wasn't planning on it.
went to see Surface laptop Go last week and I think the biggest problem is the keyboard is tooooo small, and I don't even have massive hand and I'm finding I almost mistype keys many times.
Damn I was really thinking about buying this til rn
I would still buy it though. It's a good laptop. No big deal.
@@NavodB what are its downside
i just bought the highest spec version of it on sale for something in the 550-600 range and i like it more than my macbook pro it replaced surprisingly! i can definitely see how this would not be nearly as great at the lower specs tho.
I didn't buy it because the RAM isn't enough. Furthermore, even though the 2020 Surface series supports Korean and Chinese in European and Asian markets, they are not supported in American markets due to space constraints, according to the languages supported on the Surface Duo. If I were you, I would buy the Samsung Galaxy Book Flex that supports a wider variety of languages.

Microsoft is thinking all type of end user with this basic model. I gave one to mom and she is a happy camper, my sister bought two for my nephews and their online schooling and so far so great. So this basic is model is perfect for some one with basic needs. Gaming and video editing requires different specifications.
7:37 "Surfaceable" 😂
"sounds like a great deal"
"is it?"
"NO. Until you upgrade it" haha nice
I did look into them just last week actually and went ehhhh either low specs and ok price, or decent specs and insane price. Oh well. i'll eventually get a used decent one probably (i also have a gaming pc, and laptop so im good there)
I got a used 15 inch surface laptop for 1000 USD and the only problem with it is that the computer really gets super loud when connected to a external 1440p 144hz monitor when watching videos etc. And it also get very hot when on a video call.
for me I'd say this is still the most worth the money in its price range (for most business and student).
Because it has the best trackpad, best display, best keyboard, and most importantly best speaker and webcam while most other laptop definitely fails in this catagory. If you're a gamer this not for you but i only games on pc. Laptop for business and light work.
Can you make a video about small budget laptops? Like the ones you mentioned earlier in the video, but with smaller form-factor like the SurfaceGo2...
I really want to get the £699 one in sandstone but I don’t know if it’s good for gaming
You cannot really game on it. Only very old games
I think that you can game pretty well on it, with the mid-spec model. Watch iJustine's video on this: she can game on it!
The lack of a backlit keyboard would be a deal breaker for me.
Could you do a review on the Panasonic toughpad? I need something I can use on the job site that can run windows files. I don’t really want to buy one if they’re junk.
I would prefer if the windows surface is not premium quality build but with 128Gb storage and 8Gb ram
400$ for base model, 549$ for Mid model, it would be the killer in the market
Just bought it for $400 on eBay…
I made 4 indie games on the surface laptop and its perfect for coding, gaming, and photo editing. I went safe and stayed with the 64gb
The good US, in my country the surface laptop go 12.4 inch is way above a 1000 USD
I got the Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 and is amazing! I wanted to buy the R5-4700U version but in my country they only sell the R3-4300U. Still amazing.
just buy the asus zenbook, they have R5
@@omsingh4478, already got the laptop.
@@Loukoumakias lol
No touch screens on those Acer or the Asus laptops, better hinges on he Surface, better build quality. Plus its a good laptop for students, not for streamers and gamers. For my mom, grade school kid and grandparents, I would purchase. Throw an AMD 4xxx series in there and gamers (I mean students) rejoice. I chose a $330 Surface pro 5 with an i7 and 256SSD and 8GB ram on ebay and it plays games and its fast with applications.
Crazy to think that when it’s ‘fully’ specked out it is getting really close to the m1 macbook air money so I don’t think it’s better then the m1 macbook
Haven't opened it and used it, but it's a warm laptop, okay buddy
Ken : what cooling solution and then looks for one.
Nice to watch you guys discussing about tech.👌
at $700 for the mid spec, id rather get a pixelbook go. better integration with my phone and mostly web based applications on either would put me towards the pixelbook go.
Microsoft support (Chat) said me there's face recognition on all models of surface laptop go.....how?
so if i was debating on this mid grade level or the laptop 3 with same hardware in the 13.5 size... should i get the 3? or this? (only using for web browsing, youtube, netflix)
Compare it to a Zenbook 13 at the same price. It'll destroy it in everything.
You can get the envy x360 ryzen 4500u 8gb ram 128gb ssd for $30 more. Better processor , graphics, build quality a tad larger .

Really??
You guys should make a video about the best monitors for next gen consoles
Since you said to not buy the base model, now i am thinking to get my surface go 2 with intel core m3 and 128 ssd
The aspire 5 series is $200 cheaper for equal specs. Do you buy this just have it? Shiny pretty things?
Can you lay the display flat on the table? to write on the display without wobbeling.
Everyone complains about a 720p webcam on a MacBook, yet it is a great feature on the Surface Laptop?
How do you think the full spec'ed model compare to base macbook air 2020? They use the same 8/256GB model with 100$ cheaper.
So, I bought a MacBook Air, and then I returned it because for some reason I thought it was touch screen, ik I am so dumb. But, it's not, I need a touch screen device for school to write on some assignments using Kami and so I was initially going to buy a Surface Laptop 3 black, but then this surface laptop go was released. So I currently have a laptop go ( - Sandstone, Intel Core i5, 8GB, 256GB
), and I bought it during the pre-sale. When it first arrived at my house it wasn't charged so, I thought that was a bit strange because usually most of the devices I've ever bought come charged..Okay, oh well I said no biggie but now I am constantly facing screen issues and my fingerprint sensor thing doesn't light up to work at times. I don't know why it acts like this but, it's so annoying like even as I am writing this, my laptop keeps getting a black screen or it's just glitchy. Also, the fan is loud and I don't have a lot of applications running in the background so, IDK why it's like this. Other issues include battery life, it's not great for an online high school student, I have an 8 hour school day plus hours after school for homework that's---ONLINE, and this laptop makes WEIRD noises, gosh I can list on but if these issues could be fixed I would love this laptop. So, my question is, where can I go for help or what can I do to fix these issues. I've never dropped it or whatsoever, so IDK why this is happening. Even though my MacBook air was not touchscreen, I miss it more than this because it didn't have these issues ;(((((((((((.
