The Surface Laptop Go is one of the smallest laptops I’ve ever reviewed, measuring in at just 278mm tall and 206mm wide compared to the 308mm x 223mm dimensions of the Surface Laptop 5. It’s the kind of laptop that retailers are keen to clear stock for given its age and popularity. I also recommend you look out for the Surface Laptop in big sales such as Prime Day and Black Friday. For example, Currys is offering the base model (64GB storage) for just £459, significantly undercutting the £529 starting price of the Surface Laptop 2. It’s also difficult to find on leading retailers such as Amazon.īut it is still available to buy in select stores. Microsoft is no longer selling the original Surface Laptop Go on its online store, focusing on the new Surface Laptop 2 instead. But it still proves to be a fantastic value option, proving to be one of the best value student laptops available if you’re happy to settle for a basic productivity portable. The Surface Laptop Go has been around for two years, with the newer Surface Laptop Go 2 since replacing it. With a 12.4-inch screen, it’s incredibly smaller than the average 13-inch ultrabook, but that only makes the device easier to carry to and from the office on your daily commute.

The Surface Laptop Go launched back in 2020, kickstarting Microsoft’s new budget range of Windows laptops.
