Surface Go 2 is undeniably adorable and is much smaller in person than it appears in photos.
All-in, you could spend almost $1000 on a fully configured Surface Go 2, which too much to pay for a device this limited. Too, I feel that most Surface Go 2 users-certainly the those in the first two of those use cases I singled out-will want a Type Cover, which costs an additional $130. I kept these use cases in mind while evaluating Surface Go 2 and while writing this review.įinally, you’ll also want to evaluate the real cost of this PC: While Surface Go 2 starts at just $400, that version is underpowered, so most will want to upgrade to a more powerful and future-proof model that will cost hundreds more. I see three primary use cases for individuals: A PC for a child, a secondary device for an adult, and a consumption device that would be used instead of an iPad. You’ll also want to really think about why you want such a PC in the first place. But you’ll want to carefully weigh the tradeoffs. Surface Go 2 is an interesting option for those in need of a secondary Windows 10 device.
