Microsoft Surface Laptop Go has finally made its debut in India. Launched at the end of October 2020, it is the cheapest Surface laptop available in the company's portfolio. While the Surface Laptop Go made its debut in several markets two months ago, the Redmond-giant chose it to launch in India now. The Surface Laptop Go is aimed at the students and comes with Core i5 10th Gen processor along with up to 16GB of RAM. The base model of the laptop costs just Rs 63,499 in India, however, the bummer here is the variant packs just 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage.

The Surface Laptop Go retains a lot of features from the Surface Laptop 3 like touch screen, metallic body, USB Type-C port and magnetic charging connector.

Microsoft Surface Laptop Go: Pricing and Availability

Unlike the Apple MacBook Air with M1 chipset which starts at Rs 92,990, the Surface Laptop Go starts at just Rs 63,499. However, the base variant may not receive much reception because of 4GB of RAM and 64GB of slow eMMC storage.
