The Asus Chromebook Flip C302CA is the most direct competitor to the Surface Go. And at 0.3 inches thick, the Surface Go is easy to carry around or slip in a bag. At a measly 1.2 pounds (1.7 pounds with the optional keyboard), the Surface Go is lighter than most Chromebooks.

Perhaps the most impressive thing about this Surface tablet is its weight. It has a USB-C charging port, a headphone jack and a Surface Connect port for plugging into a docking station. Because it's so thin, the Surface Go is rather short on ports. On the front is a 5-MP selfie cam with facial-recognition login technology. The Surface Go comes with an 8-megapixel rear camera, something you won't find on clamshell Chromebooks.
