The Surface Laptop Go 2 arrives in a combination of aluminium and polycarbonate, and also comes in several colours. There’s also a 720p HD camera built above the screen, which itself is a 12.4 inch touchscreen in a 3:2 aspect ratio, alongside two mics, two speakers, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power key on the keyboard section below.
There are wired connections on this computer, too, with one regular USB Type A port (the old rectangular port), one Surface connect port, and a lone Type C port that has become the EU standard, plus a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio out, as well.
Yes, the Surface Laptop Go 2 supports WiFi 6. Inside, you’ll find an 11th-gen Intel Core i5 chip, the 1135G7, paired with either 4 or 8GB RAM, and a choice of storage, with the usual assortment of Bluetooth 5.1 and 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax WiFi. “Premium-ish” is another way of explaining what’s inside, because unlike your typical mid-range machine, Microsoft has gone with a decent chip, albeit one that is a little bit older. As we said, it’s premium-ish, which is nice, but not necessarily the very best. This is a light metal you’ll be pressing your wrists to, and that’s not bad. You won’t see the fabric-lined arm rest used in the regular Surface Laptop line, mind you. It looks more premium than it feels, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing, because given how not every laptop has jumped onto the whole premium material bandwagon, it still gives the Surface Laptop Go 2 a feeling that puts it a cut ahead of many others. In short, the Surface Laptop Go 2 is premium-ish, but also not quite. Rather, you get aluminium on the top for the list and the keyboard tray, and a plastic or polycarbonate undercarriage, kind of completing it. Similar just smaller, the maker of Windows has gone with a combination of aluminium and plastic to take the place of aluminium entirely in the regular full Surface model, because full aluminium would clearly be too premium. With a design inspired by the lovely Surface Laptop, but just made to be a little more portable, it’s easy to see what Microsoft is trying for in the Surface Laptop Go 2. Microsoft’s latest take on a more portable laptop arrives in the Surface Laptop Go 2, but is it something made for big budgets or little ones with laps sized to match? Design
