The editors didn't like
You have to buy all accessories separately
Practically non-upgradable
The stand is slippery on smooth surfaces
Cramped keyboard makes prolonged typing awkward
Cheap for a Surface
But not necessarily compared to other tablets
Battery life is just average
Last-gen CPUs
Cramped Type Cover keyboard
Keyboard and stylus sold separately
Keyboard cover not included
Pricey once kitted up with accessories and ideal components
Pricey after affordable base model
Type Cover not included
Low performance for the price
The Pentium 4425Y model is still disappointing
The cost went up for the model you should get
Battery life just below allday at 7 hours
Core m3 is old
Only dualcore
Performance doesn't impress
Type Cover has a learning curve
Expensive for the better-processor
Battery life falls well short of promises
Gets expensive when you add accessories and options
Only one USB-C port
Intel Pentium Gold 4425Y might hang in some programs
Touchpad is a bit small
Small screen isn't ideal for multitasking
Low-power CPU and integrated graphics can't handle demanding workloads
Only one USB port
Small touchpad
Very low performance ceiling
Disappointing battery life
Keyboard flex
Modest battery life
Faster hardware costs a lot more
No real improvements to the $400 model
No bundled keyboard
Every accessory is extra
Summary
The Surface Go 2 offers some slight improvements over the original
A larger screen and a faster CPU option. But the $400 mod
Base model is poorly equipped
Screen resolution is terribly low
Consumers limited to 8GB of RAM
Maxes out with 256GB of storage
As a stab at a budget machine with decent performance
The Surface Laptop Go is a success. It delivers premium-fee

Abstract: I don't get it. Why would anyone want to spend Rs 70,000+ on a laptop/tablet hybrid with no power to speak of, an unintuitive touch UI, and tolerable battery life? I don't know, maybe you really love Windows 10 and have an irrational dislike for everythin...
The Surface Go 2 is fast (at least the model I tested), portable, and the speakers are loud. For me, the Surface Go 2 shines because of its form factor and solid performance. I see the Surface Go 2 as the perfect device for someone like a blogger or autho...
