Microsoft on Thursday expanded its laptop portfolio with Surface Laptop Go, new updates to Surface Pro X and new accessories which are available for pre-order in select markets and will be available for purchase starting October 13.
Starting at $549.99, Surface Laptop Go offers 12.4-inch PixelSense touchscreen display, large precision trackpad and a full-size keyboard with 1.3mm key travel for an accurate and comfortable typing experience.

Surface Laptop Go has a built-in 720p HD camera and Studio Mics for colleagues and classmates to see and hear you clearly.
To help you connect, there are both USB A and USB C ports, an audio jack and the Surface connector.
