The smaller Surface has returned
Microsoft
is getting back into the cheaper tablet game today with the new Surface
Go, a smaller, less powerful take on the popular Surface Pro device.
The Go features a 10-inch screen, integrated kickstand, Windows 10, and a
similar design to the Surface Pro, and starts at $399. It is available
for preorder starting July 10th and will ship in August.
The
Surface Go doesn’t change Microsoft’s Surface design philosophy one bit
— it really just looks like a smaller version of the Surface Pro design
that’s been around since 2014’s Surface Pro 3. It has a 3:2 aspect
ratio display (1800 x 1200 pixel resolution), the signature built-in
kickstand with unlimited positions, a front-facing camera with facial
recognition login, and Microsoft’s proprietary Surface Connector port
for charging and connecting to a desktop dock. Microsoft has added a
USB-C 3.1 port, capable of charging the tablet or outputting video and
data to external devices. It has also rounded the corners a bit compared
to the latest Surface Pro, but overall, it’s the same familiar
magnesium design Surface users have come to expect.
The
Go’s 3:2 touchscreen should make it easy to use in landscape mode for
productivity work, and it supports all of the split-screen and
multitasking modes available in Windows 10. It will be a little more
awkward to use in portrait orientation than the iPad, but it’s still
better than tablets with extra-wide 16:9 displays. The Go weighs 1.15
lbs, which is a little heavier than the iPad and about half a pound
lighter than the Surface Pro. Like the Pro, the Go has rather large
bezels surrounding the screen, which seem even larger with the Go’s
smaller display. The bezels do provide a place to hold the tablet and
allow for a wider keyboard attachment, but they also make it look much
more dated compared to the latest versions of the iPad.
SURFACE GO PRICING
4 GB RAM, 64 GB SSD, Wi-Fi: $399
8 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD, Wi-Fi: $549
ACCESSORIES
Surface Go Type Cover (black): $99
Surface Go Signature Type Cover (Alcantara®, red, blue, or silver): $129
Surface Mobile Mouse: $34.99
Surface Pen: $99
Also
like the Surface Pro, the Surface Go has an optional keyboard cover
(available in four colors), and works with the optional Surface Pen.
Microsoft says the Surface Go Signature Type Cover provides
“laptop-class typing” with a scissor key mechanism and 1mm of key
travel. The trackpad is actually larger than the trackpad on the current
Type Cover for the Surface Pro. Adding the keyboard will bump the price
of the Go up $99 or $129, depending on color, while the Pen will add
another $99. Rounding out the accessories is the new $34.99 Surface
Mobile Mouse, an ambidextrous, two-button Bluetooth mouse with
scrollwheel. It is available in silver, red, and blue color options to
match the keyboard cover and pen.
Inside,
the Go has Intel’s Pentium Gold 4415Y processor with either 4 or 8GB of
RAM and 64 or 128GB of storage. The processor is a dual-core
seventh-generation model, which Microsoft says was chosen because of its
balance between performance, battery life, and thermal properties that
allow for a thin, fanless design. The company says the Go has up to nine
hours of battery life as a result. We’ll reserve judgement until we’re
able to review the Go, but the processor is where I have the biggest
reservations when it comes to device performance. It’s not a hugely
different processor from what’s found in many midrange Chromebooks, but
instead of just having to push ChromeOS, it will have to run Windows on
the Surface Go. Microsoft will initially release Wi-Fi versions of the
Go, with an LTE equipped model to come later this year.
Out
of the box, the Go runs Windows 10 with S mode enabled, so it only has
access to the Edge browser and apps available in the Microsoft Store.
Like other devices that come with S mode, such as the Surface Laptop,
owners will be able to switch to the full version of Windows 10 for free
if they want.
Microsoft
might have a challenge finding the right customer for the Surface Go,
as it straddles the line between a consumption device like Apple’s $329
iPad and a more powerful (and more expensive) productivity tablet like
Microsoft’s own Surface Pro or the iPad Pro. Compared to the standard
iPad, the Surface Go will be challenged by Apple’s deep bench of apps
designed for touchscreens and entertainment, as Windows 10 still lags
far behind when it comes to touch optimized apps. For use as a dedicated
productivity machine when paired with the keyboard attachment, the Go’s
lower-end processor might not be powerful enough to really work well as
an everyday computer.
It
seems like Microsoft is targeting the person that uses an iPad with a
Bluetooth keyboard instead of a laptop, but doesn’t rely on it enough to
pony up for the iPad Pro or the even more expensive Surface Pro. The
Surface Go will provide that person with access to the full Windows 10
experience, along with Microsoft’s full Office productivity suite, while
still being significantly less expensive than the Surface Pro. We
should be able to find out the answers to these questions and more when
the Surface Go hits shelves next month.
motivation quotes This article was published officially on this website only www.bhargavtrends.blogspot.com Check out a fairly new video (April 18) that collects the "Top Seven Street Guitarists in the World," at least according to the person who posted and/or created it, a YouTube user named New ToDay. Angel investors and seed investors We've actually been thinking about researching and posting a story like this for quite a while, so we thank New ToDay for doing some of the work for us. The video, which is nine minutes long, kicks off with guitarist Tom Ward, stops off at Jacek Piotrowicz (and four other players) and finishes off with Eugenio Jedi Martinez. The clip omits at least two names we'd have included if the video were ours ... but we can sort that out next time. Seo guide Let's not forget that you can get a strong reaction from playing just one note—giving it plenty of time to breathe—a la B.B. King. But gawkers seem to prefer the flashy ...
There are a number of ways to rank the size of insurance companies. Companies can be measured by their market capitalization (the value of the company on a stock exchange) or by using sales figures such as net premiums written in a year or how many policies were sold. (For more, see: Which insurance policies do I really need? ) Largest Public Insurance Companies by Market Capitalization Investors can buy shares of publicly traded companies in the insurance industry. The largest insurance companies as of Q1 2014 by market capitalization on the world stock exchanges are: Non-health Insurance Companies : Company Name Market Capitalization Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.A ) $308 billion China Life Insurance ( LFC ) $80 billion Allianz (AZSEY) $76.8 billion American International Group ( AIG ) $72.3 billion Ping An of China (PNGAY) $65.6 billion MetLife ( MET ) $59...
From describing it as "a showcase of India's growing prosperity" to calling it an example of "BJP's efforts to appropriate a popular national figure", the Statue of Unity has received both praise and criticism. The unveiling of India’s 182-metre statue of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel in Gujarat Wednesday, which is set to become the “world’s tallest”, is being widely reported by the international media. From describing it as “a showcase of India’s growing prosperity” to calling it an example of “BJP’s efforts to appropriate a popular national figure”, the statue has received both praise and criticism. The State of Unity will be unveiled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to mark Sardar Patel’s birth anniversary. The inauguration is expected to be a grand event planned along the lines of Republic Day celebrations in New Delhi. The foundation stone of the Rs 2,989 crore project, erected on the banks of the Narmada in Gujarat, was laid in October 2013 by Modi...
