Surface fans: How do you view the Surface brand in 2026?
Who else makes high quality and compact Windows tablets? My Surface Go 3 and Surface 12-inch fill that niche.

Surface Apps are a joke
The Amazon App Store was nearly a desert for the short time it was there. And Google didn't collaborate with Microsoft on the WSA then - doubt they have an incentive to collaborate now. Though to be fair, it always advertised itself as a laptop-first device - all the ads they used to do included the

Bought a Surface Pro and immediately installed Linux on it lol
This is the way. I actually have a Surface Go 3 that I use for a tablet/travel system running Solus Plasma and love it. It upsets my brother-in-law who works for Microsoft, so bonus.

Surface Pro 12" VS refurb go and Linux
As a Surface Go 2 owner, I would not hesitate to go with the Surface Pro 12”. It’s the newest Surface tablet and is quite speedy and has super battery life. My Surface Go 2 has the fastest processor that was offered back then—I think it outpaced some of the Surface Go 3s. Yet just logging in feels l

What do you think about your Surface?
Have a Surface Go 3. Had some mishaps with the pen at first, but got it replaced and it was smooth sailing afterwards. Except for the battery - can't get more than 4-5 hours out of it, even at low power. Can't wait for an updated Surface Go with an ARM chip - the size, portability, and price are per

Surface Go 2 Linux
I got a secondhand GO 2 a few months back, and it's been fine (much better than the Go 3 I have, which has a bunch of annoying glitches that haven't been resolved over the few years I've had it). To answer your questions: I nuked Windows immediately after verifying the system started up and worked,

Recommendation for a cheap laptop with long lasting battery life
I would say, their general battery strength. A full charge can hardly last you more than 6 hours if screen is kept on throughout. Arguably, my experiences were with Microsoft surface go 3 (a portable tablet/pc hence understandable for its shit battery life). I expected more from a Microsoft Surface

Surface Go 3 slow booting up finally solved!
I was running the latest Win 11, 25H2, on my Surface go 3 tablet. The boot time was forever. Affinity Studio took 2 minutes. Word, longer than a minute. My PDF editor took over two minutes.Overall the sytem was very slow, even allthough I removed CoPilot and did a full reset. So I removed Windows 11

Aluminum FW12
I use a Surface Go 3 as a versatile tablet for flights and full capability machine when I'm away. (There isn't anything I can't do on it, just nothing I can do fast. Where an android tablet was always a struggle). It also sips electricity. The Framework 12 looks like a good replacement, the 2p+8e se

Surface Go 2 - tell me what to do?
Hi. I used an Asus Zenpad z300m for about 8 years before the battery literally split the case. I wanted something a bit more robust as a replacement. I recently bought into the Surface go 2, 8gb/M3/Win11pro. I had to return a few to get one that worked okay. My idea was that the Android's just didn'
