The charger snaps onto the connector like Apple’s MagSafe back in the day on the older Mac which is convenient. The dock can extend the ports on the laptop and would be handy if you wish to connect multiple displays and external devices to it. On the right side of the notebook lies the Surface Connector, which works with Microsoft’s supplied charger and also connects an additional dock sold separately.

Do note that the USB-C port is not a Thunderbolt 3 compliant one and can only be used for data transfer up to 10Gbps, power two 4K displays, and charge the laptop through PD up to 45W. On the right side of the laptop, we get a USB-A port accompanied by a USB-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Since ports are what we mentioned first in the sub-heading, let us get through what all you can plug into the Surface Laptop Go. The hinge is also smooth allowing for the laptop to be opened with just a single finger when resting on a surface, something that a lot of folks actually seem to care about. The hinge is also solid, and the display does not wobble even when applied pressure on either side. The Surface Laptop Go has zero give or flex on the deck and feels sturdy to hold. Another thing to appreciate is that there are no ugly stickers on the palm-rest, unlike every other Windows laptop. While a bold, in-your-face design language like the one we see on gaming laptops may only attract a niche demographic, the subtle design of the Surface Laptop Go is sure to please everyone. The top of the notebook only has the Microsoft logo which looks elegant, and the gray accents found on the inside only add to the overall appeal of the Surface Laptop Go. Whether you are a student in a classroom or you are seated for a meeting in your company’s conference room, the Surface Laptop Go will fit right in and look classy. The metallic chassis is also fairly thin and while there is nothing out of the ordinary about the way it looks, the laptop maintains a sober profile and can fit into any environment. This makes it extremely joyful to use whether you have it on your lap while working or you slide it into your backpack while on the move.

The Surface Laptop Go is a notebook meant to be carried around which means its design philosophy leans towards the portable side.
