Microsoft - Surface Go - 10" - 128GB - With Keyboard - Silver

I couldn't be happier with my purchase of this Surface Go 8 GB with keyboard attachment. I went with this new bundle deal to save $70 from buying the keyboard and tablet separately. It is the silver Alcantara model keyboard that is in this bundle. So far, I've updated the tablet to the 1903 version of windows 10 home after ditching the s mode because I want to install programs that aren't in the windows store. Regarding the size/weight of the tablet it's a 10 inch that weighs a pound or so without the keyboard attached and is weighted perfectly for one handed use. With keyboard attached it's a slight bit heavier, but not cumbersome and works great. I really do like the keyboard. I bought this bundle and the surface pen separate for doing work with the pen. It was very easy to pair the pen to the tablet and get to writing. I use the pen most often with one note and it's a smooth experience. Couldn't be happier. Regarding the Go, I got the 8 GB model with 128 GB of storage. So far with all tasks it's running great and no stutters or slow down with usage. I was worried about doing tasks with only 4 GB of Ram so very pleased this bundle came with the 8 GBs. I probably wouldn't have bought if it were only 4GB. Though from what I've read the 4 GB model runs flawlessly, but I didn't want to chance it. Plus you get double the storage with this model. I'll be doing a lot of web browsing, note markups and other light productivity tasks with this along with streaming videos. I doubt I'll bother trying to game with it at all. The screen/display is very bright and crisp. Images look spectacular on this display from what I've seen and have not been disappointed. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase and would recommend this tablet to a variety of users for all sorts of tasks. Just not gamers. If you're on the fence is say go for it. I think you'll be pleased with your purchase.

I was on the fence as I have had 2 LG Tablets for the past 6 years. I also do have a Lenovo Laptop. The need to have the best of both worlds to combine in the Microsoft Go. I did get the combo with the 128GB and Keyboard. I have had this now for a month. It literally does everything my laptop does and yet the portability of a tablet. The screen resolution makes up for the 10in screen. Plays Youtube great. Can use the Microsoft office with no slow down in performance. I do get about 4 hours of battery time thou. But it charges very quickly. Plus it offers additional storage in memory card. If you were like me on the fence. Its well worth the few extra hundred dollars vs a tablet and get this Microsoft Go

This is just what I was looking for something compact with options for word, PowerPoint and some web surfing. I’m so happy I found it for a great price on Bestbuys site.

Love the size of the laptop/tablet. It’s the same size as my iPad Pro but almost 1/2 the price. Love the magnetic power cord. No more damage to the cord or laptop due to tripping on the cord. It’s light weight and easy to use as a tablet without the keyboard or as a laptop with the keyboard. Wish it had a couple of USB ports instead of just one usb-c port but I’m sure it’s to conserve power. Which it does very good job of doing. Watched a 2 1/2 movie and played on the internet on a trip last week and still had 1/2 battery left. I would recommend a Bluetooth mouse to save the usb-c port for something else.

The whole backbone of surfaces is that they are this laptop/tablet hybrid. Personally I believe that tablets should just require one hand to hold comfortably. That’s the biggest pro of the surface go, how light and portable it is. For any sort of student, this can truly be your one of all devices to do everything. I have heard a lot of backlash on the processor it has, but it does get the job done. If you’re not planning on doing anything outside of causal web browsing, streaming media, and light work then this computer will do you just fine. This could be your secondary computer (great backup) or in my case your primary. The build of the device feels great as well, overall great product!

Nice size for travel, with a good screen and keyboard. Decent battery life. Doesn’t have a normal USB port...keep his in mind

For me, this is the best Surface you can buy. I know, critics talk about the processor but that's the reason the battery lasts all day. I like the smaller form factor, like an iPad but way more productive. If you decide to pick one of these up, get the pen and an additional micro SD cart for extra storage. I added another 256 GB shortly after I purchased it and still have plenty of extra storage. Also, upgrade to Windows 10 Home...free from Microsoft. I mainly use this for API scripts and have no issues to date. Definitely consider this if you are looking for a nice laptop in a smaller form factor.

I am a 2nd year PhD student and if there is one thing I learned most my first year is the importance of organization and time management. This surface go is a real game changer for me. I bought this tablet to help me stay organized between school, research and work. Before I had random sticky/ scrap paper notes scattered all over my work office and apartment from classes, meetings, and research. It drove me crazy and the thought of having to sort through them later was daunting.. so I use the surface go along with office 365 to keep all my notes, documents, and presentations in the same location and accessible between devices. What is so great about this is its VERY lightweight(why I went with the go and not the pro), so I can keep my heavier laptop at my office desk and then bring this around to classes and coffee shops. I love being able to take notes on it with the Microsoft surface pen too, keeping all of my notes from various meetings, classes and topics in one place is much more efficient and means less paper and heavy notebooks to haul (I have a 30 minute walk to school!). It also means I am more likely to take a look at my notes when they are stored in a more convenient way. With office 365 you can access all your documents from any device which gets rid of the fear of putting all your eggs in one basket - I don't have to worry about losing all my notes! I keep them all in OneNote. If you do not own any other devices and are looking to purchase this as your main desktop work device for school, I'd go with the Surface Pro instead as the screen of the Go is a bit small and is meant for more on the "go" use.
