Upgrade surface go 2 to Windows 11, great move for me!
I recently upgraded my surface go 2 to windows 11 and it's honestly MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER than it was on windows 10, the performance has drastically improved and I actually feel like I can use this tablet
And since I finally made the jump to 11, it finally matches the OS on all my PCs (even my laptop which isn't in the picture)
My life is complete!

I use Windows 11 on my Surface Pro 6 as a tablet. Actually got no complaints. Performance is really good.

If you’re into gaming, Windows 11 includes features like DirectStorage and Auto HDR, which improve gaming performance and visual quality.

1. Check hardware compatibility: Open Settings > System > About.
Check that the processor, memory, and storage meet Windows 11 requirements.
Run the PC Health Check utility to confirm device compatibility.
2. Back up your data: Use an external storage device or cloud service to back up your files.
Make sure important applications and data are backed up.

Click “Check for Updates” and if there is a Windows 11 upgrade option, click “Download and Install”.
If there is no upgrade option, you can download the Windows 11 Installation Assistant to upgrade.
