The screen also supports the Surface Pen and Surface Dial (both sold separately).

With LTE Advanced mobile broadband, you can connect from anywhere you get a signal from your carrier of choice. This allows you to go fully mobile. Outfitted with Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), the Surface Go 2 allows you to stay connected with next-gen Wi-Fi standards and increased bandwidth.

Microsoft also added a new Camera app, which allows the rear camera to scan documents and whiteboards. Microsoft also added dual Studio Mics for increased voice clarity and reduced background noise. You can also use the 3.5mm headphone jack. The operating system installed is Windows 10 Home in S Mode.

Microsoft 10.5" Surface Go 2
Intel Pentium Gold Performance
The Surface Go 2 houses an Intel Pentium Gold 4425Y processor. Its dual cores can reach a stock speed of 1.7 GHz.
LTE Advanced Mobile Broadband
With an optional data plan, you'll be able to take full advantage of LTE Advanced mobile broadband with this Surface Go 2. Connect from anywhere you get a signal from your carrier of choice.
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is the next-gen Wi-Fi standard, improving a variety of features including data rates, capacity, performance in dense environments, and power efficiency.
Battery Life
The Surface Go 2 provides up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge.
Windows 10 Home
S Mode
Windows 10 in S mode is a version of Windows 10 that's streamlined for security and performance, while providing a familiar Windows experience. To increase security, it allows only apps from the Microsoft Store, and requires Microsoft Edge for safe browsing.
Start Menu
After its hiatus in Windows 8, the Start Menu has returned. Utilizing a combination of the traditional menu system and Windows 8's Live Tiles, the improved Start Menu gives you more information at a glance, showing notification information alongside your applications and other pinned items.
Cortana
Microsoft's digital personal assistant, Cortana can answer your questions with information gleaned from both your device and the internet at large. You can type or even talk with her, if your system has a microphone. Using her Notebook, Cortana keeps track of your needs and wants, and she learns over time to improve her information gathering skills.
Microsoft Edge
After nearly 20 years, Microsoft has finally replaced its Internet Explorer web browser. With Microsoft Edge, users can write directly on web pages and share notes with friends and colleagues. It also improves the online reading experience by adding a distraction-free mode and read-it-later functionality. Edge also has built-in Cortana integration; you can have her help you find a restaurant, make a reservation, and pull up directions without leaving your browser.
Windows Store
For Windows 10, Microsoft has unified the Windows Store. Now, apps for PCs, tablets, and phones will all be accessible from one place. And with support for Universal Apps, one version of an app can work across all your compatible devices automatically.
Windows Continuum
Windows 10 was designed for a variety of screen sizes and input styles, and with its Continuum feature, it automatically adapts to fit your needs. A Windows 10 tablet on its own requires a touch-centric approach, but attaching a mouse and keyboard will shift everything to a more traditional interface. You can even attach an external monitor to your Windows 10 phone for a near-desktop experience. But it's not just the operating system; Windows Universal Apps take advantage of Continuum as well.
Xbox on Windows 10
Gaming is a big focus of Windows 10. Xbox integration allows for PC players to match up against Xbox One players on supported games, and if you have an Xbox One, you can even stream compatible titles to your PC. Native support for recording with the new Game DVR feature makes it easy to capture and share your gameplay. The new DirectX12 takes better advantage of multi-core processors, giving games a performance boost, even on older hardware. Windows 10 also features native support for virtual reality headsets, such as the Oculus Rift.

Great Machine - shackled by OS

By Paul

Mechanically perfect. Solid, excellent feel, nice keyboard, good interface, wonderfully sharp, brilliant screen. Best compromise between laptop and tablet. A selling feature was the the promise of a familiar, Windows interface, but it's a special version of Windows that does not allow you to download any app that is not from the Windows store. This fact needs to be made obvious in ads.

Still in the infant stages of proving this device. But. so far, working well. After working thru the setup and re-configuring the desktop for personal preference, it is now at the comfortable stage. Able to find what I want without looking at all installed apps and programs. Primarily, Email, Web, and Auto Navigation package. There will be no playing games while driving. Still some minor things to get done, but Clear and simple for the intended use.

Love it

I absolutely love my surface Go 2. I had the original, and updated to the 2 so that my wife and I could both have one. It is a tablet, so it obviously has limits to a large desktop, but it accomplishes everything I could hope from it. It is responsive, I love the pen feature and it runs windows. Apple is not my favorite operating software, and while they make solid gear in the ipad.... It just isn't my preference. Before the Surface, there was no alternative. Now I can have a wonderfully small, portable tablet that will run well. The only issue is that many app developers do not value creating a windows version. This has nothing to do with the tablet itself, but good to know when purchasing. I hope they are taken more seriously in the future.

Bought the 8 GB RAM, 128 GB storage version for my wife. She has been using an iPad Mini for the last several years and really likes the size of the Surface Go. She's also happy that she can do things on it (such as work) that she couldn't do on her iPad. I wish it had full size USB A port instead of just a USB C but it hasn't actually been a problem so far. It's not as snappy as my Surface Pro with the i5 processor but that's to be expected. Happy it has 8GB of RAM.

great tablet for windows fans!!

In general, an excellent tablet on Windows. it simply has no competitors. excellent build quality, magnesium body, proprietary stand, excellent webcam for broadcasts, best full hd screen. after the operating system, its second main advantage is its size. it's really very small. I advise you to buy a branded keyboard right away, especially since it is perfectly made and serves as a cover. about pros: this tablet isn't very fast in performance (I took it on a Pentium Y4425 with 8 gigabytes of RAM). Let's frankly say that Windows does not fly on such hardware, but it does not slow too much, and if you take the top version on the core m3, then it should be even better. the second minus is the battery time. here it is far from the ipad. 4-5 hours maximum. but the ability to charge it via usb partially solves this problem, you just need to pick up a special charger. i tried 2 from smartphones - couldn't charge it. I am very pleased with the purchase. I looked closely at the version and model of the surface for a long time and finally decided to buy it. Now, on the way to work in the Godod transport, I can perform some tasks on this tablet.

What about performance about 64 gb eMMC model, specially on gmail? Gmail uses scripts when writing new emails, usually compromising performance in low power systems. Thanks.
Asked by: Jose
64GB eMMC memory is similar to using flash memory like an SD card. it is similar to the same storage used on a tablet. writing Emails with gmail wont cause an issue.
