Microsoft challenges Apple with a cheap tablet.

In a direct challenge to Apple, Microsoft unveiled a device rivaling the iPad produced by its rival, but with features specific to Microsoft. The new product is the Tablet Go, the two-in-one, the cheapest, the smallest and the lightest, which runs on Windows 10 Windows. A new tablet with a 10-inch screen, which costs half the cost of Surface Pro, aims to replace Google and Apple Chrome, but it works with Office applications, the Guardian reported.
If different from other models of Microsoft
SurfSoftware is similar to other models of Microsoft Surface PC tablets. It has a small 10 "screen, 8.3mm thick and only 522g .But the biggest difference is the UK's £ 380 GB Surface Go price and the US $ 399, half of the price of the cheapest Surface Pro tablet produced by Microsoft.
Its design meets these real needs
"The Surface Go is small and powerful, giving you the performance you need to be more productive", a said Panos Panay, Product Manager at Microsoft, "When we designed this device, we had to ask ourselves what people wanted and what they needed in a 10-inch apartment." The answers are clear: a lightweight device, more productive and affordable Like the most powerful Surface Pro, the Surface Go includes the seventh-generation Intel Pentium Gold processor, which according to Microsoft balances energy consumption and performance, to extend the life of the stack up u at 9 o'clock Surface Go also features Microsoft's high-resolution PixelSense technology, a display that supports the use of the Surface Pen, featuring 4.096 pressure sensitivity points and offering a very responsive response. fast. The tablet also has its own version of the Surface Pro detachable keyboard, and an integrated hand with an angle of up to 165 degrees.
And some unique tablet features added
This new tablet is the first of its kind Contains both USB-C and Microsoft Surface Connector, after USB-C was already included with Surface Book 2 devices in December 2017 In addition, the Surface Go device has a Micro SD card slot, a headphone jack, and a facial recognition camera. Works with Windows Bonjour to unlock your Microsoft device. The device runs on Windows 10 S and users can at any time use the full version of Windows 10.
The company is now waiting for customer feedback
Questions remain about the size of customer demand on a system "Microsoft has made Microsoft's offers more competitive with the Apple iPads and Google Chromebooks, which have been successful in the education market," Microsoft has become even more. More Powerful with Surface, one of the logical steps that the company has taken to make the Surface concept easier, "said analyst Jeff Blaber at CCS Insight." There is a point here. question about the power and performance of iPad devices. Surface Go, however, is one of the main competitors of ARM-based chips from Qualcomm, when it is to offer an experience similar to that of the iPad in terms of duration of battery life. Although the current design cycle is wasting this opportunity, I expect that future products will work this way.
It seems that this product outperforms the iPad and makes the difference in this area
"The new device is an excellent presentation Office 365," said Rocheb Doshi, an analyst at Canalys. Surface Go would not be like your normal laptop (and should not be). "Surface Go is definitely superior to the iPad Pro in terms of value. It would be interesting to see if it could make a big difference in education. "Microsoft has opened the pre-order door by offering two new features: one with four GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, the other with 8 GB and 128 GB from Tuesday, July 10, 2018 in the UK , in the US and many others, and other countries on August 6, 2018.
