The 3:2 touchscreen and support for the Surface Pen suggest graphics and CAD software, but the Go 3 simply can’t run such programmes properly. Microsoft’s Surface Go 3 is the best budget Windows 2-in-1 tablet, but its performance and value are a bit below expectations for a third-generation product that competes against Chromebooks and the Apple iPad. I’ve also covered the launches of dozens of groundbreaking technologies, from hyperloop test tracks in the desert to the latest silicon from Apple and Intel. In our testing, the Go 3 managed to display the entire sRGB color gamut, and 77% of the P3 color gamut.

The Surface Ergonomic Keyboard helps alleviate this with a design that lets your wrists rest more naturally and keeps all the keys easily within reach. There is no S version of Windows 11 so you get the full Windows experience with the Surface Go 3 out of the box.
