It makes no sense buying a new Go until the eventual shift over to ARM, low power Intel is a dead end and the performance gap will only increase. Interestingly the consumer Qualcomm Go 4 was planned but postponed, I'd just use your Go 2 and wait it out, it's still a nice little device. I run Ghost Spectre on my Go which improves things substantially.
I was gifted this particular model. I was excited since I originally wanted the Go 3, but I noticed that they were not selling the Go 3 anymore. Where can I get a keyboard compatible with it? I am finding a hard finding them.
I notice they are sold out on MS's website, but likely available on amazon and even ebay. I actually got both my go3's touch keyboards on ebay, funny as it sounds.
MS claims the Go4 is or almost is on the same level as the Go3 i3, so I would say having the i3 model, it isn't worth the upgrade unless there is something particular about the Go4 that you're looking for.
@@Silent157 thank you that’s really helpful. I really prefer the size and footprint of the Go tablets (had the SP9, but too big and heavy for me). Just wish it had more oomph to handle having open a Bloomberg Terminal session (very RAM intensive) along with multiple instances of the MS Office suite (several Excel worksheets, word, outlook, OneNote, etc). The Go3 will do it, but it can get sluggish as it swaps RAM and page memory, and gets mighty hot to the touch. I have a “real” work-issued laptop with 32GB of RAM to get work done, and even a Win 11 ARM virtual machine on my personal MacBook is significantly faster, but something about the Go3 sleek form factor and stylus support (as well as built-in LTE) makes it my computer of choice when I’m working from a cafe or taking an out-of-office meeting.
Please don't bash the 3.5 mm headphone jack. Bluetooth headsets are super easy to track becasue they have permanent MAC. Don't use them. P.S Cool that you enjoyed Poland
Why does Microsoft hate my freedom so much? I have to buy these through some sketchy 3rd party reseller? Nah, yeah, nah not gunna do that weirdo Microsoft. Epic fail.
I actually got this directly from Microsoft, though it can be a little difficult to navigate to if you just go to Microsoft.com. Try this link: www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/surface-go-4-for-business/8qczkbwf3t77?ICID=vsbsfb_Go4Biz_CC1R2&activetab=pivot:overviewtab
This is such a great size device. I love my Go2. Can't understand why they only sell the 3 and 4 for business.

Does this have sound effects when drawing?
I didn't hear sound effects when drawing, but drawing was only really tested in MS Paint.

Is the Go4 a worth upgrade upgrade over the Go3 Core i3?
MS claims the Go4 is or almost is on the same level as the Go3 i3, so I would say having the i3 model, it isn't worth the upgrade unless there is something particular about the Go4 that you're looking for.

Yeah. My creepy loser neighbors hacking and listening on my buds.
@@Xi_Jinping_is_Pooh Not neighbors, advertising companies and data brokers. And not listening, just having info where you are all the time
@@1vbAPiYk LOL. No. I maxed out the sound and the guy upstairs fall off their chair. Another time, someone cough or talked on the buds.
@@1vbAPiYk Of course advertisers do that too, but they only need your device to do that. They don't talk or cough on your bluetooth buds.
