    Im watching this video on my surface laptop go 2 lol

    Just get a used,refurbished,open box Surface Laptop 3 or 4 on eBay or Swappa if you really want a laptop made by Microsoft. If not, there's plenty of similar priced windows laptops like the Acer Swift 3,Asus Zenbook,HP Pavilion Aero, Dell Insipiron,etc.

    Surely the $600 starting price was a typo right? $600 is the upgraded 8gb ram model

    A mild spec bump over the original Laptop GO, however I still think the Surface GO 2 is a better machine overall with more features standard.

    I bought the 128gb Surface Laptop Go last year. The ssd is replaceable. Went on ebay, and purchased a 512gb ssd for $80. Much faster read and write speeds. Curious if this model can also be upgraded.

    Releasing a Windows device with 4GB Ram is practically a scam to get the artificial starting price down.

    Basically it has the PPI of a 15" 16:9 1080p display, but cropped to 12.4 inch 3:2 display. Which is also the equivalent to a 1080p 3:2 13" display PPI. Its a weird resolution but the pixels don't tell the whole story.

    is HP Victus 16. RTX 3050, Ryzen 5-5600h, 60hz for 720$ a good price?

  9. Impasta

    4GB RAM for that price in 2022? No thanks

    I want to see longer reviews from this host of the show. I liked the insights he is bringing to this channel and the way they shot the whole video. Now a days people are too caught up in highlighting and showing effects in their videos. It’s harder to tell real life feel for consumers watching the videos who can’t hold the product.

  11. Mah Fah

    LOL He said “Some Fruit company and then there was Apple Logo“… Hilarious. Glad there was no close ups of product like most channels. Good review of first impressions .

  12. Aoi Kemono

    Dude for that price, just buy an older model hp/lenovo/asus whatever. 128gb is ridiculous. My friend bought a $700 lg gram with 512gb and 16gb ram. It's light as hell and mil 810g certified. Full port selection. Large battery. This Microsoft netbook is like apple tax without being apple. None of that coveted vertical integration and unique OS. The only thing going for it is that it looks nice.

    It is not that hard to have a 1080p screen in a laptop.

  14. Beorn

    Looks really good but still a little disappointed that it doesn’t have a FHD screen, 512 GB of storage, Thunderbolt 4 and a backlit keyboard. However, the fact it’s repairable is certainly most welcome. Microsoft should really lower the price to 699 for the top end model as for 849, the surface pro 8 base model, being a much better buy for 50 more.

  15. Ben Young

    The resolution is too low and does not support Surface Pen. I think Microsoft should pack the specs of a Surface Laptop 4 into a body of this size.

  16. Jackson Smith

    Microsoft is just like Apple in the sense that they always under deliver lol. But then again, with 2 giants like that, your paying an extra 20% just for the name tied to it lol.

  17. Jackson Smith

    8gm ram is the "upgraded version" lmao 🤣😂😆. Take it this is nothing more than just a note taking laptop that you can watch videos on lol.

  18. Edwin B

    I’d rather have this than a more expensive iCrap which would then constantly need a keyboard or a stand. A full desktop OS with proper musti tasking.

  19. Marius Edoardo

    If only had a 16GB of RAM version, that would be the right choice

  20. Noname Noname

    Those are completely non-repairable and therefore should not be purchased by individuals and environment conscious companies.

  21. Puturere

    If macbook air m2 can running resident evil 8
    Surface laptop go2 cannot
    You know which one is worth every penny..

  22. Hamba Allah

    Microsoft is so close! Just add backlit keyboard and 8GB & 1080p across the board, then that'll be perfect

  23. David Yang

    I firmly believe that Chromebooks are the go to choice for low end laptops: for low speced machines they run way better

  24. Square wheel

    Or you can just get a Lenovo IdeaPad flex 5 for around the same price.
