Review on NEW Microsoft Surface Go Touch Screen by Ernest Duckett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great tablet, battery not great, power cord needs to be longer.

Does almost everything a laptop can do. Great cameras. The screen is small, like the iPad Pro I'm doing this review on. I ordered a dongle so I have a USB. video output. I like the USB-C feature. The SD memory card expansion makes it a very versatile tablet. My only major dislike, to the point of disappointment, is the proprietary power cord. It's nice that it's magnetic so don't knock the tablet off the table, but I really wish manufacturers would end this practice because it puts me at a disadvantage as a consumer if I need a spare cable or forgot the cable at home or work, so it would be great if there were longer cables. Battery life isn't as advertised either, I get about 7 hours of inactivity with the screen off with the balanced setting, I can't change the battery status from % to time remaining, and none of the battery settings work. In 6 minutes after I entered this review on my iPad, my idle Surface dropped 3%.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Almost everything is there
