Customer Ratings & Reviews

I haven't been able to find time to use my laptop but,I am very interested and will be able to make it fun and exciting for my future ☺️

such a good computer for me and for my work at home

Bottom Line: The Surface Laptop Go 2 is well-suited for students and mobile professional who want a capable device in a small, thin, and light laptop design. Review: Out of the box, the laptop has a ‘premium’ look and feel with its mostly metal casing (the bottom is a plastic composite). Although the keys are slightly smaller than full size, the keyboard offers a comfortable typing experience with good key travel. The power button also houses a fingerprint scanner, which reads quickly and accurately. Touch input, both on the trackpad and touch screen, is smooth, fast, and fluid. Overall, it feels really well-made. Performance-wise, the machine offers capable specs (i5, 8GB RAM, 256 SSD) in an ultra-portable, sub-13” design. Office apps and internet browsing are fast and responsive, and there’s enough processing power to do some light work in more demanding apps like Photoshop. Microsoft did make some compromises, however, to meet its target audience and price point. The laptop has a headphone jack, USB-A, and USB-C port (the latter can be used for charging), and a proprietary charging port on the right. I do wish it had a built in HDMI port, since I often need to connect to projectors for work. Although I find images and video look fine, Microsoft went with a non-standard, non-HD resolution for the 12.4” screen (1536 x 1024 @ 148 PPI). Given the pixel density and screen size, small text looks blurry/fuzzy depending on the typeface. The screen also does not get very bright even at max setting, which makes it difficult to use outdoors on a bright day. The speaker output is louder than I expected, but they very much sound like laptop speakers. Last, the webcam is adequate but not great. Regardless of lighting, the image tends to looks grainy (or too soft with some digital correction) on Zoom calls, although Microsoft did a decent job tweaking the low light ISP so that you’re actually still visible in those instances. Overall, the Surface Laptop Go 2 is a good choice for students and business professionals looking for an ultra-portable laptop.

I really love this laptop it’s so convenient for every everyday purpose! Only wish the battery wouldn’t die so quick! Other than that it’s perfect!

didn't expect it to be so fast and steady. it is the small size that i wanted.

Amazing computer. Excellent battery life and easy to navigate. Excellent picture

It’s so nice and very useful so much memory for downloading apps and games and school stuff etc .

I wanted to love the Surface Laptop Go 2 as much as I did the first model, and I do. It’s beautiful design; compact size, thin profile, and solid build remain intact. The base model comes standard with 4GB RAM and 128GB SSD (which are not upgradeable). 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD are available on the more expensive models. While these specs are not competitive when compared with those of many other mid-priced laptops the Surface Laptop Go 2 remains perfectly suited for students and every day use. Pros • Available in a beautiful array of metallic colors but would love to have the options of basic black and white • Ultra portable at under 2.5 lbs. and 8 ½ x 11 inches • Super-simple set-up • 12.4 inch touchscreen • Magnetic Surface Connect charger connects on right side of case-not the back • Omnisonic Speakers with Dolby Audio Premium are clear and loud • Keyboard has full-sized keys and a good-sized, highly-responsive track pad • Windows Hello fingerprint reader on the Power button for security Cons • Keyboard not backlit (other than Power Key) • No HDMI port and only 1 USB Type-C (there is 1 USB Type-A) • Web cam is only 720P and offers no facial recognition • Battery life decreased dramatically with extensive streaming/videos. My experience was 7-8 hours with normal usage (email, web browsing, FB/TikTok/YouTube videos) but I can definitely see 10-12 hours of battery life with generic use.
