Microsoft Surface Laptop Go — Compact 12.4" Touch Laptop

The Surface Laptop Go delivers a premium portable experience in a sub-1.1kg chassis. Powered by the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G1 with 16GB LPDDR4x RAM and a 256GB SSD, it handles everyday productivity, remote work and study with ease. The 12.4-inch PixelSense touchscreen and Windows 11 Pro make it a polished choice for anyone wanting a slim, capable laptop without the bulk. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty. Free standard AU shipping included.

Why Choose the Surface Laptop Go?

• i5-1035G1 — 10th Gen quad-core: 4-core, 8-thread, up to 3.6GHz — responsive for Office, web, video calls and multitasking.
• 16GB LPDDR4x RAM: Generous for this form factor — keeps a dozen browser tabs, Teams and Office open at once without slowdown.
• 256GB NVMe SSD: Fast boot and app launch, with room for documents, downloads and everyday files.
• 12.4" PixelSense touchscreen: 1536×1024 (148 PPI), 3:2 aspect ratio — taller than 16:9 for more vertical reading and document space.
• Ultra-portable at 1.1kg: Slips into a backpack without weight fatigue — built for commuters, students and travellers.
• Windows 11 Pro: Full Windows — domain join, BitLocker and Remote Desktop supported out of the box.

Performance in Use

For students and professionals handling document-heavy work, the Surface Laptop Go punches above its size. The i5-1035G1 handles multi-tab research, Word and Excel, Zoom or Teams calls, and light media editing without stuttering. The 16GB RAM keeps context switching smooth even with several applications open — a real advantage over 8GB configurations in the same class.

The 3:2 PixelSense touchscreen is the standout for document and reading work — you see more of a Word page, PDF or web article without constant scrolling compared with a widescreen laptop. The touch layer adds flexibility for annotation and navigation. At 1.1kg and with USB-C charging support, day-trip battery life is comfortable without carrying a charger everywhere.

Connectivity is thoughtfully laid out — USB-C 3.1 and USB-A 3.1 cover the basics, Surface Connect provides magnetic charging, and the 3.5mm headphone jack handles audio. WiFi 6 ensures the fastest available wireless speeds on modern networks, and the 720p front camera handles video calls cleanly in most lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a laptop or a tablet?

The Surface Laptop Go is a traditional clamshell laptop with a fixed keyboard — not a detachable tablet. The touchscreen adds flexibility, but the keyboard is built in and the device does not convert to tablet mode.

Can it run Microsoft Office and Teams?

Yes — with 16GB RAM and Windows 11 Pro, Office 365, Teams and browser sessions run smoothly together. This is a full Windows PC, not a mobile device.

Does it have HDMI?

There is no built-in HDMI port. External display connection requires a USB-C to HDMI or USB-C to DisplayPort adapter (not included). USB-C supports video output.

What charger does it use?

The Surface Laptop Go supports both the Surface Connect magnetic charger and USB-C charging. Any USB-C PD charger (45W+) will work for convenient top-up charging.

Is shipping free?

Yes — free standard Australia-wide shipping is included with every order.

What does the warranty cover?

The 12-month warranty covers all hardware faults and component failures. A separate 30-day battery health guarantee is included on all grades.
