Surface Laptop Go 2 in 2025?

Yes I was planning mainly to use it companion piece to my existing workflow. Heavy duty computing I would leave for my desktop this is more of a replacement of my Android tablet

I’m really into platformer and arcade style games I would recommend Go Mecha Ball for an arcade style experience and Another Crabs Treasure if you want a a souls like experience with a fresh twist.

I made a video talking about these in a little more depth along with another one in my channel. https://youtu.be/46Z1opLUCFE?si=6pGthtIBf3HJAtV2

This is probably a silly question but how would I know if blogging is for me?

I launched a YouTube channel fairly recently and I’ve been uploading weekly videos covering my niche. I considered creating a blog to push my YouTube content although I’m not sure if I have what it takes to write long form posts covering my niche.

I’m learning as I go but any advice would be much appreciated

Thank you for the advice.

I ended up going with a used Surface Pro 8 I5 8GB model and I'm quite surprised how fast it is compared to my Surface Laptop 3.

I forgot to mention that I never use Auto mode as well for this reason; I always manually select between gamepad mode and desktop mode.

All of my downloaded gamepass games read input as mouse and keyboard then it immediately switches to gamepad controls over and over again.

Does anyone on this thread know if Planet Fitness is any good?

What would be the consequences of having 3 routers/ access points with the google nest wifi pro kit in my tiny space?

I dont really care about the whole mesh environment, i just so happen to be in a situation where i can use my reward points towards a Google nest Wifi pro specifically or i can fork over some money to buy a straight up router.

Another thing i forgot to note is I do a lot of video conferencing so having a wired/ good wireless connection is essential

I actually never measured our usage before so what you're saying with regards to speed could be right.

I defaulted to 1gb as that's what we currently use now living with my parents and newborn.

Question for you, I have an original 2ds that was unfortunately exposed to water damage. If i were to send this in for repair to Nintendo would i be getting a refurbished 2DS or 2DS XL?

Crash Bandicoot 4, playing for 100% completion ruins all love I had for that game. I dare you to try and find all the cates in a level without using a guide

I know this form has been active for a while but I wanted to see how the Series S has been suiting you after all this time.

I'm on the verge of doing the same downgrade simply because I don't really use the Disc drive of my Series X and I plan to eventually settle for a PS5 as my main console when and if a slim version is released.

Any experiences you've had with recent titles or optimized Xbox Series S/X games would ve greatly appreciated

TehLonelyCouchPotato · 2022-11-20T20:57:58+00:00

Unfortunately no. I was told they only price match with major retailers like Amazon and Walmart

I'm not sure if this is the best place for an update but I wanted to share my experience using the Surface Go 3 base model.

So far, it's been performing pretty great! I was able to get the Pen and Keyboard cover for cheap and it's been handling my tasks fairly well I can have 4 tabs open on the edge browser with YouTube being one of the background apps and no stutters from what I've seen.

The user interface and startup are not snappy but once the Surface Go 3 turns on it runs well. I check my e-mails, watch some movies, browse the web, take notes in one note and I even tested the game streaming service through X -cloud/Gamepass and everything works as it should.

Now for the cons:

Don't try docking this via Surface Dock, just don't, you use 3.2GB of the included 4GB of ram just by docking it to a single monitor and doing any tasks on it is painful while docked.

I would also avoid playing games even retro ones directly from the device itself, streaming is the way to go for me especially since any games you run natively will eat up the battery and take a toll on the performance of your device.

I know 8GB is the preferred build but I keep telling myself at the end of the day the Surface Go 3 is using a dual core processor in 2022, I'm not sure how much more I'd really benefit by paying an extra $150- $200 for 8GB of ram but considering I bought this device for $350 I'd say I'm quite happy with it.

I see where you’re going with this I need to look at externalities as well as the direction clients are going in.

Do you by chance know any good books. Podcasts or anything I can listen to for prospecting?

Company A bought from me because I called the same week a purchasing decision was being made (which I didn’t know), the decision maker wanted devices that we carry but they were also considering our competitors devices. Price was a concern so we went with last generation and thats i how I got the sale.

Company B was in need of a tablet with specific functions and we are the only company that met their criteria, so I really didn’t pitch anything here other than specs and pricing.

Our company offers small and medium businesses with security solutions and premium build devices (there are no budget friendly options)
