Microsoft postpones Surface Go 4 with ARM, plans minor refresh with Intel N200 instead



What you need to know

  • Microsoft has postponed plans to ship an ARM powered Surface Go this year.
  • The device was going to feature a Qualcomm 7c-based processor.
  • Instead, Microsoft will now ship a refreshed Surface Go with an Intel N200 chip.

Earlier this year, I reported that Microsoft was working on a new Surface Go that would ship with an ARM processor for the first time, with plans to launch the product this fall. Unfortunately, my sources now tell me that device, codenamed Tanta, has been postponed, and will instead be replaced with a refreshed Intel powered Surface Go for commercial customers.

I hear the upcoming Surface Go will be powered by an Intel Processor N200 CPU, which is a new line of chips that serve as a replacement for Intel’s entry-level mobile series of processors. The device will be more powerful and efficient than the current Surface Go 3, which is powered by an Intel Core i3-10100Y in the top-end configs.
