We appreciate hearing your thoughts, questions, and ideas about “ Surface Go 3 specs, features, and tips”.
I have a Surface Go 3 i3-10100Y 8 GB 128 GB version purchased in the UK. Is the micro SD/SDXC slot a UHS 1 or UHS 2 device? I currently have a UHS 1 Micro SDXC card in the slot, but if the slot is a UHS 2 device then I will get a UHS 2 card to take advantage of the higher data transfer speed.
Hi Ian,
According to the Microsoft support document, all Surface devices with a MicroSDXC card slot, including Surface Go, only support UHS-I cards.
