Awesome windows based tablet. First of all its not fare to compare iPad and Surface. I have both. Ipad is app based product with thousands of app available on apple store. But its restricted to apps only. Surface is full windows based tablet where we can install any software, games etc. Its compact, lightweight and premium feel. The kickstand is awesome concept. If you travel a lot and looking for portable windows based tablet then its perfect choice for you. Pair it with a keyboard if you are not fan of too much touch typing. I first purchased 8 GB RAM model then returned it and purchased 4 GB one. There is absolutely no lag in multitasking. You can overcome shortage of SDD storage with an external HDD. Another plus point is you can switch from Windows-S mode to full windows mode easily. The battery backup is great!

Before buying this product ( I bought 8 GB Ram and 128 GB SSD), I have seen many reviews and some were very good, good and some was not good. But after using this I must say this is awesome. This might not be treated as a primary laptop for you, but if you are looking for something on the go, which is not so heavy and can be carried anywhere - believe me, go for it without any 2nd thought. I have at home, Dell all in one desktop and I was always looking for something, where I can use effectively on the go and this is the Tablet/Laptop ( whatever you say) for me. I am very happy using it. So, if anyone, looking for: 1. A secondary laptop/tablet - which can be used as laptop or tablet as per the need. 2. A device with premier look. This is for you and go for it guys..

I travel a lot and I own a Surface book 2 15". therefore I wanted a smaller cheaper and lighter device for my short travels. I tried an IPad which is a wonderful yet restrictive tablet. the Go was in my sights for a while. I was considering getting the 8gb ram and 128 GB SSD but then saw some reviews about the 4gb 64 emmc and thought that it will be a secondary device so no need for it to spend extra cash and I am glad that I bought it. So far it has exceeded my expectations. it's really zippy . the emmc storage, though slower at read speed than the ssd is faster than a traditional HDD and windows 10 is good at storage and memory management so no worries there. I popped in a micro sd card for additional storage and got a type c connector dock for my external pereferals. the build quality is fantastic and even the basic optional type keyboard is superb is a must to get the most out of it. I highly recommend this device to anyone looking for a quality portable computer . In case you want this as a primary device and want to install more traditional apps then I recommend upgrading to the 8gb ram 128 ssd as you will get more of everything in the long run but if this is a secondary device or you don't use much then like me save some money and get this without second thought.

Perfect ipad killer.. perfect combo of tablet and pc. I have purchased the 4gb model. Decent performance and the hats off to microsoft for designing such a quality product. Battery life is good. Its super light , has just enough power to sail through basic tasks and the kick stand improves the flexibility. Its is slightly over priced because the type cover comes as an add on. Just wait a little more till the price of type cover comes down and you ll be fine. Do not forget that the windows 10 offers the users plenty of freedom if u compare it to the ipad.

Loved the product Microsoft has nailed it , device is too good easy to carry , it is pro device for student developer yes I run visual studio , visual studio code with good performance, it can run entire windows smooth and heavy workload capable device

it's been few days but it's working is good. As a student, it serves well to me as don't require heavy software. just browse net make my doc's on word, power, excel and one-note. so yes good for students. the keyboard specially is good so buy it, go ahead.

The processor is not so fast. But it gets my work done. I use it for around 12 hours everyday. I mostly use it for typing and watching videos. I didn't find any lag or shutdowns. There is no perceivable heat buildup. After 2weeks.. I have no complaints. It is very much upto my mark. I haven't downloaded any games or used it for that purpose. Mostly Microsoft Office and stuff. The battery life though.. Is not as advertised. I get around 4 hours maximum. But the keyboard I got was very good deal. Quite fast and responsive

Great product, I love this product It's more useful for common people & students Better than Android tablets because it's windows 10 flatform Multi tasking very well, Microsoft makes good move.
