The Acer Spin 3, which is roughly comparable in specs and price, managed an extra 75 minutes in the same test. The battery lasted through 10 hours and 22 minutes of looped video playback, which is pretty good for a budget laptop. Unfortunately, it's more what I would call just OK. I'll admit that when I first opened the Laptop Go and saw the mediocre screen, my first thought was that battery life would probably be great. If you need a workhorse video editing machine or want to play high-end games, this is obviously not the laptop for you. That could make the Surface Laptop Go a Goldilocks device for some, but it depends on what you want to do with your laptop. The chip won't hold up against what's in the more powerful Surface Laptop, but it'll beat the pants off the Core m3 that's in the base model Surface Go. It's a 10th-generation Ice Lake chip with four cores and Intel UHD graphics. There are three models of the Surface Laptop Go, but all feature the same Intel Core i5. I hardly noticed it in my bag, which, coupled with decent battery life, makes it a great choice for frequent travelers (or those of you still able to get out and work at a coffee shop). It's small and very light, 2.46 pounds to be exact. Size is another area where this machine excels. You can also easily open it with one finger, which I think is an important feature. It's stiffer and stronger than your typical laptop plastic. The top is aluminum and the bottom is polycarbonate resin, which is nicer than it sounds. It's small and svelte, with clean lines and a nice solid feel, something that's rare at this price. This is a good-looking laptop that looks and feels like it costs $1,000. Namely, a 3:2 aspect ratio touchscreen a nice, full-sized keyboard and an excellent trackpad.Īs you'd expect from any Surface, the emphasis on design remains despite the lower price. Add the word "Go" to a Surface and you're left with a stripped-down, less powerful machine that still retains some of the best features of the top end.
That's where the Surface Laptop Go comes in.
But the Surface Go's form factor-a tablet with a keyboard that's sold separately-isn't for everyone. The result doesn't top any benchmark tests, but it's highly portable, has a decent battery, and won't break the bank. This changed with the Surface Go, which took key elements of the flagships and wrapped them in less powerful hardware. Microsoft's Surface line started as laptops focused on high-end features at premium prices.
