Microsoft Surface Laptop Go appears online in an alleged render, and it looks familiar

A few days ago, alleged specifications and pricing of Microsoft’s upcoming affordable laptop – the Surface Laptop Go – surfaced online. The device is rumored to go official later today, but it appears that the floodgates of leaks have opened just in time. Now, leakster @cozyplanes has shared an image of what is claimed to be a render of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go, and the design looks kinda familiar. Actually, scratch that. The device looks identical to the vanilla Surface Laptop 3, flaunting the same sleek metallic finish with the lustrous Microsoft logo at the center and the easily recognizable Surface Connect port on the side. 

The device pictured in the leaked image is claimed to be the Platinum colorway of the Surface Laptop Go. However, the leakster mentions that it will also be available in Ice Blue and Sandstone color options. Talking about the specs, they fall in line with what we’ve been hearing so far. You get a 12.45-inch display with a resolution of 1536×1024 pixels and a tall 3:2 aspect ratio. Intel’s Core i5-1035G1 Ice Lake quad-core processor will handle things under the hood. 

Aside from the SurfaceConnect Port, the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go is said to feature a USB Type-A port, a USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm jack as well. We don’t know the battery capacity, but the one fitted inside the upcoming device is said to last 13 hours on a single charge and supports 65W fast charging as well. Selfie and video call duties will be handled by a 5MP HD camera. As for wireless connectivity, it will be covered by Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth v5.0 standard. 

RAMStoragePrice (/Estimate)

The table above lists the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go configurations that the company reportedly plans to sell and how much they’ll cost: But as is the case with every leak, we advise you to proceed with caution and process this one with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Microsoft Surface Laptop ‘Go’ specs leaked ahead of rumored October 1 launch

A few weeks ago, we heard rumors that Microsoft is planning to launch a more affordable Surface Laptop that will feature a small-ish 12.5-inch display and might be priced just around $500. Today, leakster Roland Quandt has shared the alleged specifications of the upcoming device that might debut carrying the Surface Laptop Go moniker. The affordable Surface-branded laptop might go official on October 1, alongside an upgraded Surface Pro X convertible packing the new Surface SQ2 chip.

Talking about the leaked specifications, Quandt claims that the Surface Laptop Go will feature a 12.45-inch PixelSense display with a resolution of 1536×1024 pixels and a tall 3:2 aspect ratio, but there is no word whether it will be touch-sensitive. The machine will draw power from the previous-gen Intel Core i5-1035G1 Ice Lake processor. Now, this is the same silicon that was spotted running inside an unannounced Microsoft hardware a few days ago. 

The Intel chipset will be paired with a paltry 4GB of RAM, although a more powerful variant with 8 gigs of RAM will also be there on the table. Storage options will be 64GB, 128GB, 128GB. While 64GB onboard storage is a controversial choice in itself, it will also be the far slower eMMC standard and not the SATA or PCIe SSD options we’re used to. The Surface Laptop Go will also have a fingerprint sensor embedded inside the power button.

Microsoft Surface Laptop Go is claimed to retain the Surface Connect port because it is a surface device after all. A 3.5mm headphone/mic combo jack will be there as well, but there is some ambiguity regarding the choice of USB port – whether it is Type-C or Type-A. The machine is said to weigh under 1.2 kilograms, and will reportedly be offered in three color options – Silver, Blue and Gold. The Surface will reportedly be priced at €649 for the variant that ships with Windows 10 Pro, which means models that run the standard version or Windows 10 in S Mode will be priced even lower.
