For that you want something like the Surface Go 2 Laptop. However, we still wouldn’t want to work on a Microsoft Surface Go 3 all day, every day. However, the actual key caps are of a normal size.Īfter 10 minutes we were able to tap away at more-or-less normal speed, with the normal amount of typos. The small scale of this hybrid demands that the keys are squished together a little. A standard laptop keyboard is around 20% wider than this one. How’s the actual typing experience? Surprisingly solid. We have the standard version, which feels more like a synthetic leather - it feels good too. This takes the “real” price of this hybrid from £570 to £670, or around £700 if you want the keyboard with a fancy Alcantara finish. These hook onto the bottom of the tablet using magnets, and a further series of magnets raises the top of the keyboard up by an inch for a more comfortably typing angle.Īs with every hybrid Surface, the Microsoft Surface Go 3 doesn’t include the keyboard. For the full experience you need one of Microsoft’s Type Covers.

We don’t know why anyone would buy a Microsoft Surface Go 3 for the tablet alone, though. The tablet part weighs 540g according to our scales, around 10% more than a 10.2-inch iPad. Of course, it’s not quite as comfy as a classic laptop hinge if you work with the Microsoft Surface Go 3 on your knees, as that thin strip of metal is going to rest somewhere on your legs.
