Overall ratingGood76/100
Samsung is deservedly at the top with its new trio. Very high speed, brilliant displays and good battery runtimes: All three models offer almost everything you would expect from a tablet. But the competition is also getting bigger: Google is celebrating a successful return with the Pixel tablet...

The Surface Go 3 (8VA-00003) from Microsoft hardly differs from its sister model with the model number 8VC. Only the processor is different, but there are no major differences in performance. Overall, the Surface Go 3 still impresses with very good mobility and performance values when tested...
Very good88/100
- CPU offers enough performance for everyday tasks
- Very good battery life
- Excellent Full HD display
- Apart from the CPU, hardly any changes to the predecessor
- Pen and keyboard dock are not included in the scope of delivery
In our test, the Microsoft Surface Go 3 was particularly convincing with its excellent mobility values. The display and performance were also good. However, Microsoft has hardly made any changes to the hardware compared to the predecessor. The most noticeable change is the Intel Core i3 processor, which provides an increase in performance compared to the predecessor...
Without ratingNo rating
The relatively weak dual-core processor of the Surface Go 3 is mostly manageable in everyday use, but the meagre memory configuration is limiting - and the one in the entry-level model is even insufficiently scarce. Otherwise, the Surface Go 3 is a compact, lightweight Windows 11 tablet that offers an unusual amount of comfort for its price level, from docking port to brightness sensor and silent cooling...
Good70/100
Cameras, microphones, great display, Windows 11: The Surface Go 3 has almost everything a student notebook needs - but it's no bargain either. This variant costs just under 770 euros. For this, the CPU is quite slow and the memory is scarce. The similarly priced but much faster convertible HP Envy 13 x360 is the better choice.
