This is exactly what I was looking for, it's fast and not to small so I can see the books. I haven't quite figured everything out yet but so far it's great. One app I need is not in the app store so that's the only down side.

Great computer for a college student or someone who moves around a lot, like me. The specs, quality, and speed are great especially at this amazing price. It really shines above the other tablet computers, no other compares to the quality/price ratio.

My high school Junior needed a laptop for a camp at Emory University. This was perfect for her. Lightweight and easy to use. Would definitely buy a larger Surface next time - I'm old and can't see as well as I used to ;-)

I bought this to use with my pdf textbooks. I'm able to make notes in One note and have my textbook open side by side. This has improved my studying and has made me more efficient. I am very satisfied with my purchase.

I wanted this for fast access. Kind of like an iPad. I love the idea of this laptop because it is small and easy to use. I wish the price was a little lower, because I don’t think the price is worth the product

This product is very easy to use and has great capabilities for its size. I only got the 4gb of ram which I should've got the 8gb but other than that it is a pretty versatile product. I would recommend this to anyone.

The smaller Surface Go was purchased for my "on the go" wife and career mom who heads several community events or school fundraisers. It compliments my business Surface Pro for traveling ease as we both frequent the friendly skies. Not much difference in the two models other than it being a more compact device - which is perfect for larger purses or travel packs. We often share the optional pen device as it works between the two. Having Windows based Office tools was a must for our professional career needs and home or volunteer projects / planning. Very happy with our product choice and Best Buy's personal assistance during the purchase as we reviewed the many notebooks and compact laptops on display.

Easy to use because it works just like my laptop. Although i plan to use it mainly while traveling the keyboard is a must. No problem yet with the battery life but will have to let you know after 9 hours of travel time.

Sometimes I don't need a computer, sometimes I need something that is bigger than my phone. This is just the right fit for everything in between. Easy to use, connects to all WIfI, has a physical keyboard (when you buy it).

My Granddaughter's HS uses the Surface Pro and so I got her one that she can use at home. She loves the easy use and how quickly it runs. She also likes the pen you can get for it too!
