The Surface Go has either a dual-core Intel Pentium Gold 6500Y or dual-core 10th-gen Core i3-10100Y. The base iPad has Apple’s A13 Bionic, which was originally found in the iPhone 11 series. Our previous assessment had Apple’s in-house silicon beating Intel’s modest offerings - and it’s still valid. For those who prefer Microsoft, the Surface Pro X is what you’ll want. The iPad is the only one of these that supports LTE connectivity while on the go. It must be noted that there isn’t a cellular option for the Surface Go 3. Each tablet also has its own requisite pen input with the Apple Pencil (1st generation) and Surface Pen. The Surface Go 3 is compatible with Microsoft’s Surface Type Cover to provide keyboard functions. The iPad is compatible with Apple’s Smart Cover and Smart Keyboard via the Smart connector on the side. Speaking of accessories, both tablets can be equipped with certain add-ons to increase functionality. Those who need to carry a tablet all day, especially standing up, should probably look at the iPad Mini. That’s not factoring in attached accessories, but using these strictly as tablets shouldn’t be an issue. The Surface Go is slightly heavier at 1.2 pounds. The iPad comes in at 1.07 pounds for the Wi-Fi model and 1.09 pounds for cellular models. The Surface Go has a 1920 x 1280 display with a pixel density of 220 pixels per inch.Ĭarrying both of these tablets around shouldn’t be an issue. Though the base iPad’s screen isn’t as nice as the more expensive models, it still has a sharp 2160 x 1620 resolution at 264 pixels per inch. That USB-C connector on the Surface Go 3 makes it much more versatile than the base iPad, which still retains a single Lightning connector. The Surface Go 3, on the other hand does, include USB-C (though not Thunderbolt 4 like its big brother). Unlike the iPad Mini, the regular iPad doesn’t get any of the fancy new features, such as the squared off-chassis, support for the 2nd-gen Apple Pencil, or USB-C connectivity. Is it worth it? Design and portabilityīoth the Surface Go 3 and iPad 2021 retain the same basic design as their predecessors. Starting at $400, the Surface Go 3 costs $70 more than the iPad. When we reported on the announcement of the Surface Go 3, we said that it could make a compelling alternative to the new base $329 iPad. Doesn't like when our Director takes a ticket, resolves it. Things like, she doesn't like when we have more than two pages of tickets (two pages minimum, one page is the dream). I was just thinking of some pet peeves my coworker has regarding our helpdesk.
