Hardware

[edit | edit source]

The Surface Laptop Go 3 is a minor update to the Surface Laptop Go 2. Unlike the latter model, the Go 3 will be made with an aluminum top and an aluminum polycarbonate composite resin system with glass fiber and 30% postconsumer recycled content base. Microsoft claims the device will have an improved battery life of up to 15 hours, thanks to the more efficient CPU.[5]

It carries over the 12.4-inch "PixelSense" Display at 1536 × 1024 from the prior two generations with a 3:2 aspect ratio.

The Surface Laptop Go 3 uses a twelfth-generation Intel Core i5 processor with Intel Iris Xe Graphics. The base model of the device will now have 8 GB RAM (up from four.) For the first time, both consumer models will now have 256 GB of storage, with business models topping off at 512 GB.[6][7]

Like prior generations, the device will have 1 USB-C and 1 USB-A port, alongside a headphone jack and a Surface Connect port for charging. The laptop also has Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.

Consumer models of the device now has a fingerprint power button with Windows Hello and TPM 2.0 as standard.

Software

[edit | edit source]

Consumer models ship with a pre-installed 64-bit version of Windows 11 Home, a 30-day trial of Microsoft Office 365, and a 30-day trial of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.[2] Commercial models ship with Windows 11 Pro, and a 30-day trial of either Microsoft 365 Business or Apps.[3]
