Thanks to the adjustable kickstand, however, I can usually figure out a sufficiently comfortable position to type in. When it’s sitting on my lap and I rest my hands on the palm rest, it is nearly impossible for me to work without constantly feeling frustrated by the shaky base. The bigger downside is the keyboard’s flex. The glass trackpad, on the other hand (while it is plenty responsive and supports all the Windows gestures), can feel cramped and you probably will end up investing in an external wireless mouse. The Surface Go Type Cover is $99, the Surface Go Signature Type Cover is $129.99, and the Surface Pen is $99.Speaking of the keyboard, it offers tactile and large keys that didn’t affect my typing pace too much.

The accessories are an additional cost just as they are on the Surface Pro. For now, the tablets only come with WiFi, but an LTE version is coming later this year. The $399 tablet offers 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage while the $549 tablet has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

The difference in price points comes in RAM and storage. It rocks a very similar design to the much costlier Surface Pro with a magnesium chassis and a kickstand for propping the screen up.īoth versions of the Surface Go share the same base features, with an Intel Pentium Gold 4415Y processor with dual cores supporting four-threads. That 10-inch display has 3:2 aspect ratio and a native resolution of 1800 x 1200. In case you missed the launch of the Surface Go tablet and want details on what you get for the money the Surface Go is a 10-inch device that weighs in at only 1.15 pounds. The same $50 gift card and Tend Micro subscription is offered on the base $399 tablet and the upgraded $549 tablet. The second item that you get for free is a Trend Micro three-device six-month Internet Security subscription, to keep your shiny new Windows 10 tablet from virus infection.
