I have the 4GB Surface Go. I have mixed feelings about the device. I misjudged it. I expected a lightweight laptop that can work as a tablet, but Surface Go is primarily a tablet that can do some desktop work.
The performance is OK for my needs. The screen bezels are too thick for my taste, but I guess that's the tablet part coming into play.
The device is a bit too thick for my taste, it's matching a Macbook Pro in thickness. The weight isn't special either, sure, the tablet alone is light, but add the keyboard and it's not that light anymore.
The keyboard is the best and worst part. I enjoy using it, but the way it's designed, it's completely unusable on a lap. You need a flat, solid surface to use the keyboard, full stop.
I thought it'd be more usable as a laptop. Next time, I'll look for something like Asus Transformer, they have a rigid keyboard that holds the screen, or a used Macbook 12 (I love the form factor of that one).
I am not sold on the kickstand. I don't really see many benefits of it. I guess it's useful if you want to watch a movie on your tablet and want to put it standing up? I don't know.
