It may be okay for use with a "Cricut" plotter? printer? (I've honestly never used one), but I think it may struggle a little too much. I would recommend the Pro 7 at the minimum here. The iPad mini shouldn't be considered at all; I have one and I replaced it with the Go because it was almost unbearable to use for some of the most basic of task (web browsing) and occasional YouTube watching. There hasn't been an hardware update for them in a while... They make a lower end Surface Pro that has an i3 and 4 GB of RAM that is a little more than the Surface Go so it should be fine as long as the Cricut software can get by with 4 GB of RAM. I would check your software requirements to be sure. The main issue is the processor in the Surface Go; it can't handle too much going at once. It works fine for my needs as long as I don't demand too much from it at once. YouTube becomes a stuttering mess with frequent buffering if I have anything other than YouTube open at the same time (this includes other browser tabs at the same time I have a YouTube tab open and watching a video). I have some regrets going with the Go due to this...Otherwise, it is a vast improvement over the iPad mini Gen 4 I had; maybe Gen 5 mini is better, but I doubt it...
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This Surface Go 2 offers an Intel Pentium Gold 4425Y processor and storage capacity of 128 gigabytes. Hope that helps!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Surface Pro 7, I feel is faster and you can do more with it than the iPad mini. I hope this answers your question.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would buy the 7. I didn't need much because I do very little on the tablet. I'm no longer an Apple fan when it comes to their computers because I like to have the ability to use a USB drive to move data from one computer to another. I'm not a fan of doing that with the cloud. So if money isn't an issue, the 7 should work well but I didn't look at various models so if there are more than one model, check the speed of each
