Tablets these days are trying too hard to be a notebook.

Neglected to state the 8gb version costs about $550, not $399 for the 4gb. Add in the pretty much required keyboard for $129 and your pushing near $700 for .....a 10.5" device.

Already have a Surface Pro. My old Nexus 10 is on it's last legs so looking for a new sofa browsing gadget. Windows device looking like a good option because I can block youtube ads on it.

I've had a Surface Go 2 for about a week now and love it, and this review rings quite true to me. (I have the m3 128 Gig wifi model.)

I don't regard it as a "budget" laptop. For me, it's a premium second computer for use on the go.

I've been surprised how well it runs by music production/digital art/programming software -- well enough that I can get serious work done on it when I'm away from my home studio.

I'm very happy with it.

I agree it is a very nice and compact machine. Battery life is terrible. 2.5 hours Outlook doing just emails is what i get. Only Edge stand alone a little bit better but totally unuseable. I am sorry i believed the hype.
