Microsoft Surface Laptop Go specs (as tested) And the port selection (the same as the Surface Laptop 3’s) is limited to Microsoft’s proprietary charging port, an audio jack, a USB-C, and a USB-A. The camera isn’t compatible with Windows Hello. The keyboard isn’t backlit, which is a really weird omission from a $900 laptop. There are a few other areas where Microsoft seems to be cutting some costs. The keyboard and touchpad, while very functional, also have a plastic-y texture and feel like budget affairs. Its rubbery texture reminds me of the outsides of Amazon’s Fire HD tablets, which regularly sell for around $100. The top and keyboard cover are aluminum, but the base is made of what Microsoft calls “polycarbonate composite resin system with glass fiber.” It’s plastic. But compared to those, the Laptop Go feels a bit like a toy. On the lid is the same lustrous Windows-adjacent logo that adorns other Surface Books, Surface Laptops, and Surface Pros. That makes it the lightest ever Surface Laptop it feels almost weightless.

The Go weighs just 2.45 pounds, making it noticeably lighter than the 13-inch Surface Laptop 3 (2.89 pounds), MacBook Air (2.8 pounds), and 13-inch MacBook Pro (3.1 pounds). Part of the premium is certainly for the Surface brand and design. But it also costs $899, which means it’s competing with very good laptops. It has 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, in addition to the same quad-core Core i5-1035G1 available across the line. The only Laptop Go model I’d recommend is the top-spec option, but that comes with a steep $900 price tagĪnd then there’s the model I have, which is the one that actually looks usable on paper.
