Surface Go 2 retains the overall dimensions of its predecessor, but with a larger 10.5-inch display, with a higher 1920 x 1280 resolution at 220 ppi, while still maintaining the 3:2 aspect ratio. [2] The updated model offers improved battery life and improved performance, with one model performing 64% faster. It is the first Surface Go to include an Intel Core m processor as an option. [3]
The device shipped with Windows 10 Home in S Mode by default, but can be switched to the full version of Windows 10 Home for free. It features the same 5 MP front-facing camera, 8 MP rear camera and an infrared camera, as the previous model. An NFC chip and a kickstand supporting an angle of up to 165° are also present.
The Surface Go 2 was sold at prices from $399.99 to $729.99, with its detachable keyboard with touchpad and stylus pen sold separately.
