Review on NEW Microsoft Surface Go Touch Screen by Matt Tebow

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The starting price of $399 is worth it!

So I wanted this in the first place for my photography. Something I could show my clients my photos without having to bring a big laptop. It's a gimmick and more! First, the build quality is very good. It has a matte feel of metal moldings. Feels very strong and yet so light. The screen is good, bright and very clear. It just looks like quality. Many reviewers would have you stop buying the entry-level model because it's "very slow and sluggish and not worth the money," but that couldn't be further from the truth. The thing is, this little machine can multitask very well. I even had a long list of updates for already installed applications, each updating in a matter of minutes and updating maybe 3 or 4 at a time. Done super fast. The browser is smooth and works flawlessly. He has a very slight stutter when loading a web page, but nothing that would cause him to have a seizure. I even tried playing YouTube videos and they work fine. I got it running in 4K and it played very smoothly with no stuttering or lag. Your internet connection matters, but as long as you have a good connection you shouldn't have any problems. I also have a windows connected phone and it works great. I can focus on my work without having to look at my phone when I can easily reply on the tablet itself. The only downside is that if you really don't mind using it like a tablet, the mouse and keyboard will go along with it. At least a keyboard with a trackpad. It's a very bad choice that Microsoft decided to leave these essentials out of the package. I highly recommend looking into cheaper case and mouse alternatives like Microsoft. I have a $12 Bluetooth mouse and a $30 keyboard that work just as well as a printed case. Both devices have excellent connectivity and response times. These 2 devices are the key to unlock the potential of the 2-in-1 device. Especially if you work from home or have a job. All in all a great 2 in 1 device for the price. For $399 I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to do simple work from home such as: B. video calls, office projects, or even watch movies and videos, or just browse social media and want to take something with you on the go. Works great. Funny side story, when I first got this I set up a tablet. My one year old got curious and started playing with all the accessories I had. I put the tablet down and started moving things. She grabbed my phone and threw it on the tablet. The corner of my phone crashed into the screen. Not even hours to own it and have things thrown at it. The tablet is fine, the protective glass is not cracked, the mobile phone is fine. Tell us about the build quality. Rschunimagu
