This runs Windows S version though. Doesn't it have a lot of limitations? What would you be able to do on an S version of windows which you can't on an Android tablet?
It's so easy to remove Windows S mode it's a joke. Look up a quick YouTube vid. I wouldn't let that be a reason to get it one way or another.

Windows S can be converted to regular Windows with a simple official MS store download. Takes 5 mins and no effort.

This is significantly cheaper than employee pricing for the Go 2, this is a VERY good deal. My Go 1 has been all over the world with me, for international trips it weighs very little and takes up almost no room in my backpack.

Just wondering why the price drop - are they looking at a Go 3 any time soon?

Big Microsoft event June 24th..
Maybe go 3, duo 2, etc.

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Big...369.0.html

The Alder Lake family includes the following lineups:

S1 (desktop and specialty mobile): 8 big cores (with HT) + 8 little cores (no HT) -> 24 threads
S2 (desktop): 6 big cores + no little cores -> 12 threads
P1 (mobile): 6 big + 8 little -> 20 threads
P2 (mobile): 2 big + 8 little -> 12 threads
M (ULV mobile): 2 big + 8 little with LPDDR5/4x support and only PCIe 4.0 instead of 5.0
N (ULV): possibly 2 big + 2 little

Apple M1-like big (fast) and little (power saving) CPU - Big jump in performance likely for the Go 3.

Is the $279 model bad or even worth it just browsing and (non porn) videos? What does it compare to?

Turtle if you try to push it hard and multitask.
But perfectly fine for your 2 uses.

How's the CPU? Any firsthand experience?
Seems a bit weak based on benchmark
https://www.windowscentral.com/su...benchmarks

M3 is the "snappy" model.
The rest are slower turtles, so single task, don't push it hard, and it'll be fine for office, web, media.

Love my Go 2 but it was a hassle getting out of S mode. I forget exactly what the deal was but what should have been a simple check box was more of a pita than it needed to be.

I don't think the black is new, but not positive. From what I understand, the new versions should have the the backlight key as F1 instead of screen dimmer. But it's hard to say since it is listed under the "new" type cover along with other version 2's.

Windows is not an appropriate OS for tablet.

Just try double tapping an icon to open an app in a moving vehicle see what is your success rate.

Don't make yourself suffer. Get an iPad.
Moving Vehicle??
Really Safe move, I see.
Hope I'm not on the same freeway...

...

Alternatives.
Voice control.
Accessibility - adjust what double clicks.
On-screen programmable touch buttons

I bought a like new from Amazon Warehouse on this listing for $40. Mine does seem to have the extra magnets to close securely

I had one of those cheaper knockoff key board before and it kept losing connectivity. Definitely prefer the real thing.

If you have an American Express card, they routinely send you offers for various merchants. The current one offers 75 back for 500 spent on MS store. YMMV.
