Microsoft Surface Go 2 Review | A slight 2020 upgrade

Reviewing Microsoft's new Surface Go 2 tablet-cum-laptop, a 10.5-inch upgrade for 2020. This Windows tab can once again transform into a makeshift notebook using the Type Cover, offering a flexible and ultraportable design. I've been using the Surface Go 2 for a week now and here's my final review.

While the tablet itself costs from just £399, that price goes upwards fast once you factor in accessories like the keyboard cover, stylus pen and mouse. And if you already own the original Microsoft convertible, the updates here aren't enticing enough to encourage a purchase.

All the same, despite the limited performance, there's lots to love about the Surface Go 2020. Battery life is still very respectable, offering up to eight hours of mixed use per charge. The display is bright and colourful, and you can happily carry this tab around all day in even a decent-sized handbag.

Here's a full benchmark and gaming test, along with my real world experiences using the tablet along with the Type Cover. Check out my review of the original Surface Go to see how this model stacks up, and my thoughts on other Microsoft kit like the Surface Book and Pro.
