A:AnswerMany of our customers have commented that they are able to download games. However since the processing power, RAM and storage capacity is significantly less in this model, many have remarked it is not the same gaming experience. Be sure whenever you are looking to download games to the device that you are comparing the system requirements of the game to the specs of the device.
A:AnswerIf you were to convert the Surface Go to Windows 10 Home Edition (no cost) I'm sure you can install lightroom and photoshop. But I'm also fairly sure they will not perform well. The low end Go only has 4GB of RAM, and initial benchmarks indicate that this device will not work well for content creation. YMMV, but I wouldn't recommend it.
A:AnswerSome games may be able to play on the Surface Go, this will depend on the minimum system requirements per game you are interested in. Be sure to compare the specs of the games you would like to play, which usually includes the processor, RAM, and storage capacity.
A:AnswerI do not think so. This has a rather low end Intel Pentium processor with no dedicated graphics. If you are looking to run Lightroom but also have a very portable computer, I would recommend the Microsoft Surface Book with the dGPU (dedicated graphics) in order to work for what you're looking to do.
