I ❤️ my new Surface Laptop Go 3!. It's light weight, works perfect for what I need, I also love that I can use my earbuds on it, I love watching my fave shows on my laptop wearing my earbuds. It's fast and I love the color, I ordered Sandstone color, went a pick up following day, it came with a game pass trial, and a free trial antivirus software.

One of the few Windows laptops available in this smaller size. Decent specs for everyday use, excellent touch screen. Especially convenient for travelers. You will find more performance for the price in other laptops, but not in this size.

Was looking for a smaller lightweight laptop that I could throw into my purse and with more capabilities than a tablet, including full keyboard and Microsoft operating system. I absolutely love the color, size, weight, everything.

I highly value the device's compact size and portability. The Surface hardware stands out in terms of its premium quality, and I greatly appreciate that it is not cluttered with unnecessary software, distinguishing it from other brands available in the market.
The keyboard is truly excellent, and I find it especially convenient for travel due to its lightweight and compact design. It fits perfectly on airplane tray tables, making it easy to use in-flight. While I also admire the Surface Pro devices, they require a larger surface space and may not be as suitable for use on one's lap. However, with the Surface Laptop Go, it's a real win, especially if you don't require extensive processing power.
Moreover, I must mention my particular fondness for the vibrant blue color offered on both the Surface Laptop Go and the Surface Pro 9 models. It adds an aesthetically pleasing touch to these devices.

Open‑Box Steal—Surface Laptop Go 3
|

Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I scored the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3 (12.4" Touch, Intel Core i5 / 8GB / 256GB, Sage) as an open‑box deal, and it’s one of the best tech purchases I’ve made this year. My unit arrived in near‑mint condition with the original charger and documentation, and the cost savings made a premium laptop feel like a no‑brainer.
From the first boot, it’s clear this machine is built for fast, everyday productivity—boot times are quick, apps launch snappily, and multitasking across Edge, Office, and Teams feels smooth on the Core i5 with 8GB RAM. The 12.4" PixelSense touch display is crisp and bright, and the 3:2 aspect ratio makes documents, spreadsheets, and web pages more comfortable to read than on typical widescreen laptops. The Sage color looks refined in person—subtle, modern, and a welcome break from standard silvers.
Portability is a standout: it’s lightweight and easy to carry, perfect for coffee‑shop sessions or commuting. The keyboard is comfortable for long typing runs, the trackpad is precise, and instant‑on makes it feel ready whenever I am. Battery life has been reliably “all‑day” for typical office use, and the touchscreen is great for quick scrolling or note‑taking. On my unit, the fingerprint power button unlocks instantly, which is a small feature that makes a big difference in daily use.
If you’re considering open‑box, this experience shows how good the value can be: premium build quality, clean condition, and full functionality—for a lot less. For students, professionals, or anyone who wants a fast, compact Windows 11 laptop without overspending, this configuration hits the sweet spot.
Pros
Excellent value as an open‑box purchase
Premium design and Sage finish; lightweight and portable
Snappy everyday performance (i5 / 8GB / 256GB)
Sharp 12.4" touch display with productivity‑friendly 3:2 aspect ratio
Instant‑on and fast fingerprint sign‑in (on my unit)
Considerations
8GB RAM is great for everyday tasks; heavy multitaskers may prefer 16GB
12.4" screen favors portability over a larger workspace
Port selection is basic (USB‑C, USB‑A, Surface Connect, headphone jack)

I am sure Microsoft make a great job when configure hardware and software. Pros: great quality, great performance, good battery life.
Cons: no backlight on keyboard, display resolution could be higher maybe 2.5 k or better

Great laptop, very small and lightweight. No windows Hello via face recognition and no backlit keyboard are the only real issues. Power is great, i use it mainly to run Reaper and Kemper rig manager for my guitar and its awesome.

This is a fine PC. I agree with other reviewers - a lit keyboard would have been nice. It does have a tough battery life, but as long as anyone can gain access to an outlet in a reasonable amount of time, it shouldn't really be an issue.
The somewhat miniature size of the PC is exactly what I was looking for as someone who does not really find much value in larger pieces of computing hardware. I enjoy having the added mobility. I think this is a great PC for the price, although I'm sure I could have done more research into finding something that was a little more "bang for my buck." No regrets, though. I'm glad I purcahsed this PC.

Almost Nailed It

Overall, this laptop checked most my boxes for what I wanted. I really wanted a laptop that was lightweight, smaller than a 13" screen, a pretty good battery life and enough power to be quick. I generally do basic tasks on my laptop, but occasionally need more power for some moderate tasks; which knocked a Chromebook out of the running. I debated between the Surface and Macbook Air. I ultimately landed on the Surface because I really enjoyed the touch screen and I got this on sale for $649 which made it much more attractive than the regular price.
The biggest knocks on this laptop are the screen resolution is sub-par for a laptop at this price point and no backlit keyboard.
