Microsoft introduces ‘hyper-portable, ultra-affordable’ Surface Go to Saudi Arabian market

Microsoft today announced the general availability of the Surface Go – the smallest, lightest, most affordable Surface device to date – in Saudi Arabia.

Weighing only 1.15 pounds and carrying a vibrant 10-inch display, the Surface Go delivers the versatility and portability of a tablet together with the performance of a laptop, all in a single, compact device. It empowers people to stay connected, pursue their passions and tackle their side projects, without compromising on the performance or quality.

The Surface Go is a new entry point for users – a productivity powerhouse, driven by the might of a 7th-generation Intel Pentium Gold Processor 4415Y, in a fan-less design, and capable of delivering up to nine hours of battery life. 

For the family at home or on the move; the expert interacting with customers on the front line of business; or the school that wants to provide teachers and students with the most versatile classroom tools – the Surface Go offers a premium experience at unprecedented value.

Surface Go also comes with all the ports needed for a user on the go, including Surface Connect for charging and docking; USB-C 3.1 for data and charging a headphone jack; and a MicroSD card reader for storage expansion – all designed for maximum productivity, whether studying in a library, working on a plane, or sharing content in a boardroom on a 4K monitor.

“As everyone in the kingdom does their part in realising the ambitions of Saudi Vision 2030, we must ensure we have the right tools to be productive,” said Denis Klimashev, Senior Director, Business Group for Microsoft Middle East and Africa. “Microsoft’s Surface family has built its reputation on versatility and performance, and the Surface Go retains all the premium qualities that have come to define the range. Having productivity apps like Office 365 at your fingertips at work or at school, with the flexibility to create or just relax and read or watch videos – this was the experience we had in mind when designing it. Whether you are a consumer or business user, student or teacher, artist or engineer – the Surface Go is your ideal digital companion. 

The Microsoft Surface Go is available now from all major retail outlets and commercial partners across the kingdom, starting at SAR 1,799
