Microsoft Surface Laptop Go Performance: Great For Regular Usage

The display offers a native resolution of 1536 x 1024 (148 PPI), which is slightly less than FHD, and I would have loved to see a QHD panel, just like the Apple MacBook Air. However, due to the form factor, it does feel more like a 13-inch screen. The Surface Laptop Go has a 12.4-inch display, which is one of the smallest screens that I have seen on a laptop of this class. Like some of the Asus and Lenovo laptops, I would have loved to see a display with 360-degree rotation, which is useful while using this device in a tablet mode or even while watching movies. The display on this laptop gives this device a tablet-like look, thanks to the curved edged on all four sides, and even the finish of the glass on top of the display makes it look premium.

Having just a single USB-A port and a USB Type-C port does mean you might have to use a type-C dongle to connect multiple USB peripherals at the same time.

When it comes to I/O, I think Microsoft should have given more options.

However, Microsoft's offering isn't as thin as the XPS, and I don't see an issue, as it is moderately thin and light, which makes it an excellent laptop for travelers. In fact, the Surface Laptop Go has lower chassis flex even when compared to the Dell XPS 13, which costs almost double that of the Laptop Go. This combination keeps the weight in check, and also reduces the overall cost of the product. The top portion and the chassis are made using metal, while the bottom part uses soft plastic, and this is definitely a great choice of materials. The Microsoft Surface Laptop Go is made up of both plastic and aluminum. Microsoft Surface Laptop Go: Built Like A Surface
