The 3,264 x 1,836 camera on the back of the laptop was great at capturing colors. The front camera can also be used with Windows Hello to log in with facial recognition.
It’s also sharp, catching my dimple and every hair in my beard. A shot I took at my desk was well lit and color accurate, catching a small bit of discoloration on my favorite blue shirt (thanks, Surface Go, for making me realize it’s time to throw this shirt away). It’s a higher resolution than we see on much more expensive laptops, and, more importantly, it takes a solid photo. The 2,560 x 1,440 webcam is pretty great. On the bright side, you do have expandable storage with the microSD card slot. If you want 8GB of RAM or 128GB of storage, invest in the more expensive model when you first buy the laptop. The song only just filled a mid-sized conference room and really worked best when I was sitting directly in front of the display. When I listened to Bon Jovi’s “Living On a Prayer,” the vocals, drums and guitars were clear, but the bass didn’t thump the way I’d like it. The speakers on the Surface Go aren’t powerhouses, but they get the job done. It’s just more organized.įor real writing and spreadsheet work, the Type Cover is basically mandatory. Ultimately, I found myself using desktop Windows view, not tablet mode, even without the Type Cover. I don’t think that the touch keyboard is as good as what you’ll find in iOS or Android, but you don’t need the Type Cover to make the thing work.
If you’re just browsing the web, you’ll do OK. Performance should be sufficient for some simple web browsing to pass the time or banging out a brief writing assignment. I had 18 tabs open in Google Chrome, including one streaming a 1080p episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver when I started seeing slightly more lag than normal when switching between tabs. The Intel Pentium Gold 4415Y CPU, 8GB of RAM and 128GB of SATA SSD storage in our review configuration of the Surface Go aren’t incredibly powerful, but they’re enough to do a few small tasks at once.
