    I have wanted a surface for years now, but could never really afford one. Then came the surface GO. I still could not afford it, but I took a chance. To cut the story short, I was very disappointed. While a good enough device, I thought the battery life was pretty bad. The advertised 9hrs...was more like 5 or 4hrs and while to others, this may be okay. It was not with me. The Screen size was also not what I had waited all these years for...back to square one.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Good computer for my needs

    This computer does what I bought it for EXCEPT I hate the lack of apps! You cannot use any apps unless they are from their store and when I tried to find a bookkeeping program similar to what I had used before, you can forget it. Additionally, whatever app you choose may only work on certain things (ex. Your phone, tablet or laptop but not on each one). So this is my biggest complaint. I wish I had taken it back and gone with the Samsung Galaxy S4 instead.

      Hi there,

      Thanks for sharing your honest experience of Surface Go. We're sorry you're having trouble downloading certain apps. You may find that switching out of Windows 10 in S mode will help resolve this issue. We highly recommend checking out our tips for how to make the switch here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4456067/windows-10-switch-out-of-s-mode.

      We hope this helps!

    I bought this as an everyday alternative to an actual laptop. It was perfect in every way except it kept freezing and could not handle certain video editing programs. A few quirks but would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something basic, actually got a friend to get it for her classes.
