Whatever happened to phones that fit in your pocket? The dearth of compact mobile devices has many enthusiasts dismayed, making sacrifices in terms of features, platforms, and hardware. Some of us even continue reaching years into the past for smartphones we can operate with one hand.

Microsoft’s revamped Surface Go 2 is, for some people, the potential sweetspot in Microsoft’s Surface 2-in-1 lineup. It is relatively light and portable, now has a decent 10.5-inch display (up from a 10-inch display on the original) and it even comes with the option of a more powerful Intel Core m3-8100Y variant this time around. On this occasion, we’ve paired it with the new Brydge 10.5 Go+ keyboard, which has recently been announced and is shipping soon. Can this combo make our netbook dreams of yore come true?
