Is the Surface Go the best tablet to go for in 2018?
>not closed down like iOS (you can upgrade free to the full Windows 10 experience) >Nexus 7 2013 is slow and not officially supported anymore >expandable storage >will be updated through windows updates for years to come >not too pricey but still costs more than many android chink tablets
>soldered CPU >soldered RAM >very difficult to impossible to open without destroying >has a kickstand instead of hinge, making it very awkward to use on a lap or adjust the angle of

> dual core CPU locked at 1.6GHz > $400 + $100 for the keyboard oh no no no no
Aaron Roberts
These are non issue if you want a tablet experience.
It sucks from a repairability point but that's what extended warranties are for. None of my tablets have randomly died.
Juan Cook
>dual core 1.6 GHz >slower than a fucking $50 phone
Andrew Campbell
I probably wouldn't need a keyboard. It would be good for checking emails, posting in bed and watching YouTube. Can't stand using a small screen phone for typing. Tablet is tolerable with on screen keyboard.
David Parker
At that point just get an iPad.
Charles Rodriguez
Why bother with an x86 Windows device then? A $200 Android tablet will get better battery because ARM, and give you a better touchscreen experience because Android does that better than Windows 10, for a lower price.
Levi Anderson
>atom processor
Even the iPad is superior to this crap.
Jacob Foster
>muh megahurts myth Brainlet.
Levi Morales
Quad core tho
Lincoln Phillips
Because the favorite youtuber of OP says it's good.
Charles Gonzalez
iOS is picky about what types of files you can use. They only just started supporting FLAC and it's still too locked down compared to Windows.
Angel Harris
Get back to me when it works with Linux. You must think I'm a brain dead moron if you're trying to sell me on using Microwanker Shitshow 10. I'm never using that garbage. Ever.
Landon Garcia
Windows will run slow as fuck on this specs, don't buy this shit, don't do that with yourself.
My mom's iPad air still runs fine and updated still.
Jace Diaz
2 rupees have been deposited in your loo Pajeet.
Nolan Ward
ipads can't even download torrents
it's trash
Gabriel Lee
>the full Windows 10 experience this caused me to react physically and not in a good way
Robert King
They can, you only need to do a jailbreak.
Anthony Jackson

Jose Turner
>muh botnet break
iPads also don't have any decent media players. On a Surafec you can use mpc-hc with madvr or MPV, also browsers with actual adblockers. List goes on how full Windows is way better than some shitty mobile OS.
Hunter Price
What's with these screenshots with anecdotes written on an apple product? Is there supposed to be more credit on it because it was written on the product itself?
Jose Cruz
why would i want to put my device at risk with some shady app from a chinese website using a chinese dev certificate.
iPad 2018 runs like shit too, it only has 2GB RAM, almost everything needs to be reloaded when switching tasks, adjusting multi-window is also extremely slow
>t. iPad 2018 32GB owner

>shit specs >shitty dual-core incel sock >shitty incel "HD" "graphics" >ancient 1080p IPS display from WW1 I think an arm tablet like the tab s3 is a better deal desu. If you're going the tablet pc route then I don't see why you'd settle for anything less than a quad-core cpu, 16GB of RAM, and dedicated graphics.
Luke Johnson
I'd defend the Surface but Samsung's S-pen is really fucking good it's not even a contest.
Grayson Jackson
it's trash. Over priced for what it is. If you need windows on the go, get something else entirely. Fucking chromebooks rule the cheap mobile market if you're not in need for any major processing power while on the go. >inB4 hurr durr chromebook and ChromeOS has no usability!
The garbage tier hardware in the entry level tablets won't be getting any real work done anyway.
Robert Williams
>Fucking chromebooks rule the cheap mobile market if you're not in need for any major processing power while on the go. No they don't, shill.
Angel Hall
Man it sucks to admit defeat but yeah, surfaces are honestly not worth it. Tries too hard to be a pc and a tablet but fails at both. Better than macshit but that doesn't say much desu.
Oliver Bennett
>2 incel cores at 1.6 GHz >intel hd 615 Fuck that, this is literally slower than a snapdragon 820 on $400 ARM tablets.
Mason Williams
It's way faster than a SD820 on raw specs.
William Hill
Benches slower in both cpu and gpu tasks than both A10 and SD420
Jaxson Martinez
Cheap Kindle tablets and iPads own the tablet market with Nexus and Samsung tablets trailing shortly there after.
Jeremiah Jackson

AHAHAHAHAHA, it can't even beat an ARM toaster chip from the medieval ages.
