The processor is similar to the Core i5 chips used in the Laptop 3 but with weaker graphics performance. The model we tested had 8GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage. The Laptop Go ships with just one choice of processor, the 10th-generation Intel Core i5-1035G1 and a choice of 4 or 8GB of RAM, depending on the version.

The Surface Connect port is for power, but can also be used for attaching additional accessories such as the Surface Dock for more USB ports and monitors. Operating system: Windows 10 Home in S modeĬonnectivity: wifi 6 (ax), Bluetooth 5, USB-A, USB-C, headphones, Surface Connect, fingerprint sensor Processor: quad-core Intel Core i5-1035G1 (10th generation) If you’re used to the pin-sharp screens of premium laptops it will be a disappointment.

The LCD screen is slightly smaller at 12.4in (versus 13.5in) and while good looking, it is noticeably less crisp than the higher resolution Laptop 3 and some rivals. The trackpad is large and precise, making it one of the best you can get on a Windows machine. The keyboard is slightly smaller and the keys are not backlit, but it has an equally good typing experience. The keyboard and trackpad are good, which is expected at this price.
