I have had a surface go 3 for a few days..

It will likely go back.

In fact I am currently using an old rt 2 tablet.

They removed tablet mode from win 11 and I cannot find a tablet optimized browser for windows.

Win 11 will not exit minisetup without internet access

Demands ms account, but you can later create local admin account and delete, but still annoying

I cannot use the android framework because not enough ram.

Windows 11 is a bad tablet os, but I do not know if 10 is better

I bought three cheap Win10 tablets last week to drop into my EMP storage cans... for 150.00ea with free shipping from Walmart I didn’t expect much more than sluggish make-do machines but they work pretty well.

I jumped through the usual Outlook and MS accounts hoops to set them up...who is the idiot who coded that setup routine!?

They don’t have a USB-C or a full-size HDMI but they were just for putting into storage to await the day of doom.

You can fold the keyboard all the way back and use them as a touch-screen tablet... I discovered I actually like that feature.. and it pairs well with a cordless mouse.

They are fan-less design, charge with 12VDC and run on 3.7
those voltages are easier to deal with if you end up running them on solar.
