A great pick for younger users or someone who just needs the basics, the $599 Laptop Go 2 offers good performance and a great design for the price.

Now, with the Surface Laptop Go 3, Microsoft has given up on trying to deliver a super cheap PC. But the result is a computer that's far more appealing.

Starting at just $600, while the Surface Laptop Go 2 isn't as flashy or luxurious as more expensive rivals, it does a great job at nailing all your basic laptop needs.
