Microsoft Surface Go 3 previous speculations

According to aĀ  previous report from WinFuture, this third-generation convertible PC from Microsoft will reportedly sport the same design as its predecessors. Its design uses magnesium alloy and features a fold-out stand. If earlier reports are anything to go by, the new Surface Go laptop will adopt a fanless design. In other words, the device will not pack any moving part under its hood. However, this could lead to issues related to overheating.
