The only complaints I have so far are that the keyboard doesn't seem to have a backlight for making being in the dark with it easier, nor does the mouse/finger pad work like normal. I cannot for the life of me figure out if it's a user problem or a computer problem. I have had to install a wireless mouse to use for when I'm trying to select text to copy or drag and drop or whatever. I have to use the touchscreen if I want to move the windows around. All this because the parts of the finger pad that are supposed function as the right/left clicks do not appear to be working. Otherwise, I have no issues with the computer itself. It's very similar to my work laptop, as far as looks and brand, so it's been very easy, otherwise, for me to get used to working with it.

I love this little guy. I first purchased the Apple Air and after using it for a week I just didn't like it. Don't get me wrong the Apple Air had a great battery life and key board. I just am so use to windows that some Apple programs I found harder to use. This 8 ram Surface go so far has been doing very well for my needs. It price is a few $100 less then the Apple and it seems just as quiet as the Air. The screen is pretty good not as good as the air but if you don't have them side by side you won't know the difference. I did find a clear plastic cover to fit over my Surface go on Ebay. The cover I got for the Apple Air was easer to find then the one for the Go. All in all so far this laptop seems well built and I'm very happy with how well it works and how well it's built. I love the color sandstone it's very close to the Apple Gold. Good pick for the money! Seems to be very little fan sound. In fact I never hear it like I did on my older HP laptop.

Additional Pros: Touchscreen; Fingerprint ID Con: The battery life seems shorter than expected but it isn’t a major con.

I was in Best Buy looking at laptop options, and I loved this one. I saw it was a way better deal to purchase on Amazon. I love it. No issues, super easy to set up, everything’s great.

I am pleasantly surprised as I really like the surface laptop Go. I feel like Microsoft missed a home run here with the base model having 4 gb of ram and no fingerprint sensor and then having to go to the next trim at $699 to get the 8 gb ram and fingerprint sensor. Result: ground rule double. Likes: Design: it is a nice looking device that stands out from the others in its category. The ice blue is attractive while not the most obvious blue still retains a nice look. The plastic underside does not detract from this either. Size: It is compact and fairly light. Screen: Despite the sub 1080p resolution, the screen is still attractive and bright with accurate colors. The 3:2 aspect ratio also makes this a hit because the screen is taller and easier to review documents, because you have to scroll less than a 16:9 aspect ratio. Color options: there are 3 different color options to choose from, options are always good. Ports: having usb-c and a is great as well as having the device charge from USB-c along with the mag connector for charging. Trackpad: this is on the nicest trackpads I have ever used as my fingers glide across it. Mouse movement is great. Price: the base model starts at $550. Fingerprint reader: nice and fast logon Performance: all models have an i5 processor and I think this is more than fine for everyday users, even the base model will give you good performance. Neutral: Keyboard: it is okay to type on for me and not as good as the pixelbook go keyboard because it has a somewhat mushy feeling when typing. Screen: it is nice but still it is under 1080p for a device that cost $550 and up. When was the last time you found a device that was not full hd for $500 or up? Sound: I think it sounds decent, not amazing, not a pro or con. Base Model: 4 gb really microsoft you could not have just put an extra 4 gigs in and charge $599. Why limit it this way? Also no fingerprint reader in base model as well. Battery life: it is in the 7-8 hours territory. Not amazing but not awful either. Cons: Keyboard: no backlight. This is the biggest con again when is the last time you had a device over $500 with no backlit keyboard. It makes typing in poorly lit rooms more difficult and a no fly zone for those who work in darkness. Price: on the highest tier model Microsoft is really trying to upcharge you just for added storage.$899 just highlights this device's shortcomings even more in that price bracket. Wrap up: I looked over a bunch of devices in this class and some not in its class. This is not the quintessential device for me but it is very good. My biggest gripe is the lack of backlit keyboard on a device in this price range. I find the screen is very nice looking but the sub 1080p comes across as tacky also. I feel they could have popped an i3 in the base model and then added the fingerprint sensor. Avoid the $899 model as that is too much to pay for something so compromised. Also consider: The Surface laptop 3 is something to consider if you are worried about the compromises being made. It has a backlit keyboard, a full HD+ display and is larger at 13.5 screen display. It does cost more, and also the bezel around the display is larger.
