Launched for the first time in 2017, the Surface Go has just been replaced by a new version with a slightly revised design and a (slightly) more muscular technical sheet. Soberly named Surface Go 2, this new version of the tablet under Windows 10 offers a very interesting office and ultraportable experience… and with a very reasonable entry price for the Surface range.
With a starting price set at 459 euros in France, the Surface Go 2 is the most affordable Windows tablet in Microsoft’s current catalog.
One of the great strengths of the Surface Go is its beautiful Full HD+ “PixelSense” IPS screen (1920 by 1280 pixels) for a pixel density of 220 dpi, thanks to a diagonal limited to 10.5 inches only. . The Surface Go 2 screen is bright and well contrasted, it also offers convincing color reproduction for watching movies on the move.
If its technical sheet remains modest, the Surface Go 2 can claim excellent assembly quality, resulting from Microsoft’s know-how for its Surface range (usually rather high-end oriented), as well as an extremely efficient size in shift.
On the autonomy side, the results are also positive, with a tablet capable of holding a good ten hours in surfing, office automation or video streaming. That’s enough to work a whole day without having to carry it with you. The connection, for its part very limited, is limited on the other hand to a USB-C port (not Thunderbolt 3), a microSD card reader and a Jack 3.5 output to connect headphones.
Note that Microsoft allows you to opt for a more powerful model, equipped with an eighth generation Intel Core m3 processor. Its small power surplus compared to the Pentium Golf 4425Y is not necessarily essential for the basic use targeted by the product. Especially since the price here passes the bar of 700 euros. The good equipment / price ratio of the Surface Go then takes a hit.
