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.

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

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 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

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

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'

Apps for Ipad similar to Paint Tool SAI or a way to use SAI on Ipad?

I don't use Apple products so I unfortunately don't have a suggestion there, but I've been using SAI on Surface tablets (the Surface Book 2 and Surface Go 3) and it's been great!

Laptop with Cellular data

I have a Surface Go 3 LTE that's active on the Unlimited Starter plan and it's working fine. I can't say anything about other devices, but the ToS are on your side since they only specify "tablets" and make no mention of operating system.
