    This laptop's build quality is the best you will ever get at the 600 (on-sale) price point. The screen isn't as bad as most people make it out to be. The keyboard is great. The touchpad, despite not being glass, feels like a glass trackpad with how smooth and responsive it is. The aluminum palm rest and top lid feels nice, and the plastic bottom isn't too bad. The magnetic charger is great. Now there's a frustrating and disappointing reason I returned this device-- the battery life. It is laughably short when using Zoom. After an hour and a half class, the battery is down to 60. I just think that it is disappointing. In addition, there is this annoying artifact when scrolling. It looks like it's lagging, or otherwise stuttering when scrolling. This is due to a feature of the graphics card called "Panel Self Refresh" intended to save battery life by dynamically altering the refresh rate. It is poorly implemented on surface Laptop go's, as evident with other reviews on reddit and online forums. One can turn this off by downloading the Intel Graphics Command Center from the Microsoft store, going to the System option on the left side, then clicking power tab. You can disable panel self-refresh here. There is also another feature called display power savings that adjusts the brightness, and this machine does it terribly also, resulting in a stuttery change rather than a gradual change. Overall, the hardware is nice, but the battery and software makes this a no go. I returned it and got my money back happily.

    I was looking for something smaller and more portable than my Surface Laptop 2 (that I haphazardly ruined by spilling water on...it was a great laptop and could handle what I gave it). I thought I'd get the same with this with similar specs. I use an external monitor and keyboard for when I need lots of real estate so I thought this could handle spread sheets, word, PDF editing and a bit of multi-tasking. It cannot. It throttles, hesitates horribly, and has issues just catching up - to the point that it needs a vacation. Battery life degraded quickly to where I get maybe 4 hrs if i'm lucky. I have tried to live with it for 9 mos and can't deal anymore. This laptop is fine for portability, surfing online, email, videos, but don't count on it to do anything more complicated - quickly. Such a bummer because I love it's size and how it looks. I just upgraded to a Surface Pro 8 and this GO will GO to Grandma.
