Interested to try the new Surface Go - we brought one of the original ones as a test device and was quite disappointed. The performance, especially for web browsing, is far behind that of cheaper Chromebooks, even though it had more powerful hardware.
- freeone3000 6y agoUpgrading from the pentium to the m3 should put it on par with a $300 Chromebook. If you want a Chromebook, get a Chromebook.
- disabled 6y agoAgree with the other reply 100%. If you payed for the upgraded Surface Go, it works excellently, and runs pretty well when you break out of Windows S mode. I use it for travel and more portable uses. I specifically use it to read via screenreader (Kurzweil 3000--works best on Windows), when I need something more portable. I even got one for my mom for Mother's Day last year and she uses it as her primary Windows laptop. It is better than spending $180 for the cheapest Windows laptop that you can get, due to the tablet form factor, durability, and portability. Sure, the battery is not replaceable but this is livable.

- turtlebits 6y agoThe base model still uses a Pentium gold, so you're probably not going to like it either. You'll have to pay $629 for a better processor.
