The base $400 Surface Go 3 starts with just 4GB of RAM and the Intel Penium 6500Y processor, but you can spec that up to 8GB + Intel Core i3, although the price then jumps significantly, at which point it's best to consider one of the next, more capable Surface tablets we're about to take a look at… You can either get the aforementioned keyboard separately, or buy the Surface Pen stylus and do your work or school-related writing the old fashioned way. In addition, for light office work or school work, this tablet will handle things reasonably well too.

Watching YouTube videos and movies on the Surface Go 3 is a joy, because its 10.5-inch screen does offer nice colors and contrast, plus we even get forward-facing stereo speakers, and that's a rare sight! The latter conveniently snaps to the bottom of the Surface Go, feels nice, has a backlight, and does not need charging.īut let's face it – this device is mostly suitable for media consumption, and its built-in kickstand makes that a perfectly convenient experience. You won't be gaming with newer or heavier titles either, and as for older ones – you'll need to pair the Surface Go 3 with an Xbox controller, or consider buying the Surface Go Type Cover keyboard.
