Entry-Level Surface Go 2 Review: This is WAY better than you think!

Alright, let's be real. The entry-level Surface Go 2 is way better than you think it is. And this review is here to show you why. Today I'm going to be reviewing the entry-level Microsoft Surface Go 2 with the Intel Pentium Gold 4425Y, 4 GB of RAM, and the 64 GB eMMC drive. These components sound super weak and unappealing at first... but, unlike the first-generation Surface Go from 2018, Microsoft actually made their hardware choices work very well this year. My intro is really long, haha. Sorry about that! Actual review starts at 2:00. The CPU part at 9:31 is the longest section of this whole review, so prepare yourself. Little details make a big difference. ••• Chapters • 0:00 Introduction • 0:08 Introduction • 0:45 Introduction: Leading Thoughts • 0:56 Introduction: Recap of the 2018 Surface Go Experience • 1:45 Introduction: Thesis Statement • 2:00 Display • 3:36 Bezels • 4:48 Surface Go 2 Accessories • 6:04 Surface Go Type Cover: Keyboard • 6:28 Surface Go Type Cover: Trackpad • 7:14 Surface Go Type Cover: Better on the Surface Go 2 • 8:15 Build Quality • 8:28 Ports • 9:31 CPU • 9:55 CPU: GeekBench 5 Scores (Three-Way Benchmark) • 10:10 CPU: GeekBench 5 Scores (2018 Surface Go vs. 2020 Surface Go 2) • 12:52 CPU: Wait, what about that Intel Core m3 configuration? • 13:36 CPU: Quick Rant on Microsoft's "Processors of Choice" for the Surface Go 2 • 14:38 Storage (Three-Way Benchmark) • 15:09 Battery Life • 16:01 Webcam Quality • 17:09 Final Assessment ••• EJ's Website https://ejyu.epicepix.com/ Twitter: @EJYuTech   / ejyutech   Instagram: @EJ.Yu   / ej.yu   Ko-fi: @EJYuTech https://ko-fi.com/ejyutech ••• Hey, I'm looking for laptops to review! 📢 Business Inquiries — Send me an email: ✉️ https://ejyu.epicepix.com/#contact 📢 Everyone Else — What should I review next? 💬 Leave a comment below! ••• Music made by me. ♪
