The base spec is literally just so they can say "from $549"

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.

Can we just say this does not have keyboard backlighting?

I found Ken be more logical and realistic than holy austin.

Literally watching this on my new Surface Laptop Go. Did what you said and bought the midspec.

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?

So just like I guessed: It's ok for a cheap laptop except it isn't a cheap laptop.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
