Great with few limitations
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love this little computer. It turned out better than I thought it would be. Minor limitation just don’t expect the performance of a regular size laptop.

Just ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Form factor is awesome love the size 10” great for portability can’t really do better however I returned it and got the pro 7. The go processor lags. It’s good for surfing the web and that’s about it. Also comes with that version of windows that is locked down only to windows store apps. You can disable it however you really don’t want to install much on this laptop since it can’t really process much. Even with 8 gb ram it’s just to slow with the tablet processor. Spent the extra $200 and get a pro.

Great, portable option
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a surprisingly good tablet. Very travel friendly and charging through usb-c is a great feature. You'll need the keyboard though.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat LG Range
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the first time I have purchased an LG product and I couldn't be more satisfied. It provides me with all of the features anyone could want with 6 burners. Love it!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat 2 in 1 but not for everyone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great 2 in 1 computer but you have to use the Windows 10 special software and it wasn’t really for me. I did t want to jailbreak it so I just traded for another one.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Haven't really had a chance to try out all the great things on the Surface GO, but I love it so far. The screen is pretty small, but for the difference in price, it's worth it.

Laptop in a Tablet
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a great product. Loving it so far. Complete windows functionality on a handy tablet. Also whenever you need just attach/snap the keyboard can get the feel of a laptop.
I would recommend this to a friendThe Surface Go, runs photoshop and Corel Painter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with the Surface Go. Pen, Keybord and Accessory Port. It is capable of runnng some high end programs, like Photoshop and Painter. Worth every penny.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works well as a laptop, but not as good as a tablet. Limited apps so I find myself still going to the tablet that I was replacing. Something Windows needs to address.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this for a number of months now. I like it quite well. It could have a little more "umph", but I think it is adequate for my needs. I love the form factor.
I would recommend this to a friendThumbs up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does what it's supposed to do - wish it had a bit more flexibility / memory options - & although switching out of S mode is pretty easy - switching back is not !!
