Microsoft’s 10-inch Surface Go starts at $399 and ships August 2

Microsoft today introduced its smallest (10-inch screen) and lightest (1.15 pounds) computer yet: the Surface Go. Powered by an Intel Pentium Gold processor, the new laptop-tablet hybrid is available for preorder now starting at $399 (without a keyboard), and hits store shelves on August 2.

Microsoft insists the Surface Go “is the best of Microsoft and the iconic Surface design you know and love, with no compromises in premium quality.” While we’ll have to wait for a review unit to judge for sure, on paper this appears to be true: Surface Go really does seem to be a shrunk-down Surface Pro (in fact, just like the Surface Pro, the Surface Go will get an LTE option later this year).
