Bought one.

Bought one tonight. The LTE version.

I've never bought a laptop this low in strength based on specs, but I really need the tiny size & weight in Q1.

Day Zero experience was positive.
I've done the initial setup, updates, and opened Word, Excel, Powerpoint with stock files. No noticeable slowdown till I opened Outlook at the same time.
WiFi speed is as fast as my 2016 MacBook Pro, and twice as fast as my Thinkpad T470.
Screen looked great running Netflix.






90gb free. I need 60gb for work data.

Wish I had decided this before Black Friday to pick up extra licenses of my 3 Must Have Windows Apps:
Breevy, SnagIt, and GoodSync.
I have GoodSync setup to automatically sync C:\Work\*.* 60gb between my Thinkpads, and 1 directory of personal stuff that I sync between my MacBook Pro and my work laptops.
I will add the Surface Go in that sync chain.
