The 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G1 quad-core processor is good enough for students and everyday office workers but 3000-series AMD chips on the 15-inch Surface Laptop 3 and the Intel Core i7 on the 13.5-inch Surface Laptop 3 will satiate power users as well. Under the hood, Surface Laptop Go makes a few compromises to keep the price lower.

The Surface Laptop 3 has a pixel density of 201ppi while the Surface Laptop Go has a rather modest 148ppi. While both the Surface Laptop 3 models have higher resolution displays, the Surface Laptop Go is not quite there at 1536 x 1024 resolution on its 12.4-inch screen. It also weighs the least which also aids the portability. Because of the smaller display and thinner bezels, the Surface Laptop Go is more compact.

The Surface Laptop Go, too, looks good, however, the aluminum is limited to the lid and keyboard deck. It’s built from aluminum and you can also get the 13.5-inch Surface Laptop 3 with the Alcantara fabric on the palm rest if you want. The Surface Laptop 3 screams luxury all over. *Available with Intel processor for commercial customers Design Surface Laptop Go 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7, Core i7-1065G7ġx USB-C, 1x USB-A, headphone jack, Surface Connect portĬobalt Blue, Matte Black, Platinum, Sandstone
