Microsoft released the Surface Laptop Go in 2020, and the foundation hasn't changed much; The program is Microsoft's attempt to introduce its own Surface version to budget viewers. Our review of Surface Laptop Go has found it to be very successful, although we have advised that more money be spent to upgrade the rock-bottom model. On paper, the Surface Laptop Go 2 looks very similar. That includes display adjustment - an important question mark with the first Surface Laptop Go. The first Surface Laptop Go raised eyebrows with its 12.45-inch 1526 × 1024 (148 PPI) panel, which fell below the standard 1080p resolution common to most laptops. In Surface Go 2, Microsoft clarifies the display at a quoted 12.4 inch point, but with 1525 × 1024 (148 PPI) the same as its predecessor. (You can check out our previous review for more zoomed in images, which we can really complain about.) What has changed, however, is that Microsoft has moved to Intel's 11th-gen Core chips, especially the use of the Core i5-1135G7. While we do not know how the Surface Laptop Go 2 will work, we have seen the Core i5-1135G7 in competitive pricing books. We can expect the Surface Laptop Go 2 to compete directly with the Acer Aspire 5. Our review of the revealed Aspire 5 performance of the Core i5-1135G7 falls entirely into the "good enough, but not infamous" camp. You may never mention Surface Laptop Go 2 as a gaming PC, but the advent of cloud computing allows even budget PCs the power to play games. Microsoft Microsoft has also decided on the last 64GB option available on the Surface Laptop Go. Now, you will get at least 128GB of storage, a “removable” option that can be replaced by a Microsoft repair shop. Microsoft also has the "C-Cover" (keyboard and trackpad), "AB Cover" (Microsoft-speak for the display) and battery, "pads" and "foot", and the DisplayLink cable replaced, which helps expand. battery. device life. Interestingly, everything other than the battery appears to be a “customer-switching unit,” although Microsoft still advises you to choose a “competent professional” to replace it. The battery must be replaced by Microsoft or an authorized Microsoft provider. The Windows Hello embedded fingerprint reader worked well on Surface Laptop Go, and we expected it to do the same on Surface Laptop Go 2. Microsoft If not, the most important change for Surface Laptop Go 2 is its use or Windows 11 Home, available in the consumer version of Surface Laptop Go 2, or Windows 11 Pro or Windows 10 Pro, provided as part of Surface Laptop. Go 2 For Business. Microsoft has sent Surface Laptop Go with Windows 10 to S Mode, and Microsoft has announced in September that it will be releasing the Windows 11 version to S Mode, too. In November, however, the certificate issue reduced a few major features of Windows 11 to S Mode, including the Start menu. For whatever reason, you will find the full version of Windows 11 inside Surface Laptop Go 2, not the stripped version. (Microsoft representatives declined to comment further.) The original Surface Laptop Go is delivered with standard Platinum, as well as Ice Blue and Sandstone. Now there is the Sage option again, for those who prefer the green alternative. One of the niftier gimmick Surface Laptop Go hasn't changed: a fingerprint reader embedded within the power button. Sure, we've seen similar routes start with Huawei and move to laptops from Acer and others, but it was still a reliable, useful way for the deep Windows Hello camera available on other Surface devices. Microsoft has also installed the Surface Connector, too. (Surface Laptop Go lets you charge with USB-C if you like.) Here is a brief summary of the specifications of Surface Laptop Go 2. We have not yet found the price configuration available, but we would advise you to avoid setting up 4GB of RAM, if possible. If you agree, that would increase the "initial value" to something more than $ 599.
