Surface Go demo units have landed at your local Microsoft Store

Next Thursday, Microsoft's answer to the Apple iPad, the Surface Go tablet, will launch. Including one model available only from Costco, there are three different versions of the slate. One is equipped with 4GB RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage. This unit will sell for $399. Spend $150 more, and you can grab a Surface Go with 8GB RAM and 128GB SSD storage. The Costco variant features 4GB of RAM, 128GB of  SSD storage and a black Signature Type Cover, valued at $99. The warehouse membership club is asking $549 for this unique model.

Surface Go tablets sport a Gorilla Glass 3 protected 10-inch display, carrying an 1800 x 1200 resolution. Under the hood is a dual-core Intel Pentium 4415Y processor. An 8MP camera graces the rear of the slate, with a 5MP front-facing camera included. Up to 9 hours of battery life can be squeezed out of the Surface Go, which runs on Windows 10 in S mode.

If you are interested in checking out the Surface Go, we can tell you that demo units have now arrived at stateside Microsoft Stores. With the weekend coming up, if buying a new tablet is a high priority for you, mosey on over to the nearest Microsoft Store and check out a Surface Go demo. Make a family event out of it, and you can bribe the kids by promising to buy them some ice cream afterwards. Microsoft is now taking pre-orders in person or online for the tablet, up through next week's August 2nd release date.
