The Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3 256GB / 8GB is Microsoft's 2023 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 15.7 x 278 x 206 ( = 0.62 x 10.94 x 8.11 in) display, the Intel Core i5-1235U 10c/12t 10 x 0.9 - 4.4 GHz, Alder Lake-U chipset. At AED 2,499 in the UAE and ₹76,990 in India, it sits firmly in the mid-range tier.
The Surface Laptop Go 3 with Intel Core i5-1235U and 16GB LPDDR5x-5200 delivers snappy multitasking and responsive Windows 11 operation, while Intel Iris Xe Graphics handles light creative tasks and 1080p streaming without strain. Its 41Wh battery sustains 8–9 hours of mixed use, outlasting most ultraportables in its class. At 1.112kg, it’s among the lightest 12.4-inch laptops, ideal for students and professionals who prioritize portability over screen real estate. Weakness: only two USB ports — one USB 3.1 Gen1, one USB-C with PD and DisplayPort — severely limits peripheral expansion without a hub. Storage is a single 256GB NVMe drive, adequate for basic files but slow for large transfers. In UAE at AED 2499, it’s good value because the build, battery, and RAM justify the premium over similarly priced Ryzen rivals. In India at ₹76990, it’s overpriced: local competitors offer Ryzen 7, 512GB SSD, and better ports for under ₹70000.
