What happens when you buy a laptop and use it every day for a month or so? In this video I review the Surface Laptop Go 2 after using it non-stop for a month. I've got nothing but good things to say about this tiny powerhouse. It's not perfect, but it's absolutely worth looking at if you're in the market for a new laptop.

I have to say this was one review that sold me on this. Other tech reviewers have focused on the power or mainly how it would suit them and not think about who it is targeted at. This would suit my wife's needs she is not bothered by all the bells and whistles she just wants her laptop to be compact and good for productivity. Thanks!

@m4nuz Год назад

same with my wife... and now i ended up with another one for me...

@plmn93 10 месяцев назад

Yes, I'm buying one to replace an HP Envy laptop that has been an absolute piece of junk. Just because something looks premium and checks all the boxes, does not mean it is a good value.

@Tiralful 5 месяцев назад

Yeah, I kinda get tired with reviewers just running cinebench and encoding video and going "meh". Despite 99.99% of people never encoding a video ever.

@lhuiz0731 Год назад

It is very valuable your intro about the difference between surface devices, Thanks! You have a new fan here in Washington, D.C.I will get my Surface go 2 for Black Friday!

@Poisoned2010 2 года назад

Just picked one up today. I really like the laptop's size and screen aspect ratio. When reading reviews I see many pointing out that you can get 'more' laptop at the same price point ( mid-tier surface laptop go $699, high tier $799 USD ) , but I would rather have the smaller sized laptop with the 3:2 aspect ratio.

@Rehunauris 2 года назад

I agree. 12-13 inch laptop is good for people who need something really compact with desktop os, too bad a lot of manufacturers are abandoning 12-13 inch laptops in favor of 14-16 inch models.

@plmn93 10 месяцев назад

You pay a premium for this form factor, but I learned long ago that that's OK because it's something you appreciate every time you use it.

@caitlinnichol719 Год назад

@chitrarth Год назад

Totally agree, surface go devices seem enough for light weight tasks but using it with keyboard on lap is very uncomfortable, for every minor task also you need keyboard and then laptop form factor is a must, speaking from personal experience just upgraded to this from surface go 1st gen

This is such a great review! its so detailed and actually answered a lot of questions I had. This seems like such a decent laptop for the price. I wanted a decent laptop that wasn't too expensive but still did the things I need it to do that the ipad (with keyboard) couldn't. i have had enough of spending closer to a grand on a laptop that i will only be using for writing and submitting essays, surfing the web and enjoying some entertainment. I felt like continuing to buy macbooks was a waste as i could use my ipad for editing or creating posters ,etc. i just need a standard laptop that will do the minimum without too many sacrifices. Also....FINALLY USB TYPE A IS BACK! This seems like the laptop for me! so thank you for this review!

@MrCupONoodles 2 года назад

Really entertaining review, I’ve picked one up! Just to say it’s £630 for an 8gb, £530 is the 4gb which hasn’t had good reviews.

@CloudNexus Год назад

That's cool! I really love this one. No way on the price, that's weird - I've just doublechecked the invoice and we paid £566.10 for the 8GB version. We must have got a promotional discount or something, we bought direct from the Microsoft store. But thanks for the heads up!! We'll be sure to mention that in future videos. You are 100% right though, nobody should be working with 4GB of RAM these days, 8GB minimum!

@warrenmcclure7819 Год назад

You wont have to worry about storage if your always connected to wifi. You know the SSD is upgradeable, upgraded mine from 128 to 512GB

@airrwalker Год назад

Laptop Go 2 : 1536 x 1024 (148 PPI) 15.6" Laptop : 1920 x 1200 (145 PPI) The density of the pixels is measured in pixels per inch. PPI determines the physical size of each pixel. If both Laptop Go 2 and a 15.6" Laptop both roughly have 145 pixels per inch, does that mean if these two screens were to compared side by side, the FONT would be the same size on both displays? This is important for people who read lots of text and do word processing. Can you do a video to demonstrate this?

@Emily-yv1is Год назад

I just got one of these around $600 for the 8gb RAM/256gb model. I am very impressed. The form factor is great. The screen is really nice and the speakers sound impressive. This is a fantastic device for someone who just needs a laptop for relatively simple day to day tasks. Its easy to get swept up wanting better specs but plenty of basic users don't need a heavy duty laptop. The portability, lightness, and more compact size are a huge plus to me.

@@e.a6851 Because most people, like me, haven't used an Ethernet port on a laptop in 10 years or more. If you are using it like a desktop, you'll probably want a dock anyway.

Hi guys, I'm thinking about getting this laptop but I have some doubts like: is it good for college students? And does it overheat with some tabs open?

Certainly. Especially with its Iris graphics, 1080p and 1440p will be great, 4k should also be alright if it's a small project.

Maybe it's just me, but I consider 16GB RAM to be a minimum these days. 8GB is only acceptable if you are running Linux or macos.
