Microsoft Surface Go 10.5" Surface Go 2 Platinum 2020
Weighing just 1.15 lbs, its 10.5-inch 1920x1280 PixelSense touchscreen pairs an Intel Pentium 4425Y with HD Graphics 615 and up to 9-hour battery life in a fanless magnesium build. A MicroSD slot and USB-C provide expansion, while renewed pricing makes Windows 10 affordable in an ultraportable form. Best for students or travelers as a secondary tablet for light note-taking, streaming, and reading; its dual-core CPU struggles with multitasking.
