If we had to choose

While the Surface Laptop Go is excellent on its own, your experience with it will be even better with some peripheral accessories. These accessories can help enhance the device's strengths and reduce the impact of its weaknesses, helping you make the most of your usage time. Of all the awesome accessories on this list, our favorite is the Tomtoc Protective Sleeve. Laptop protection is something everyone needs, and the Tomtoc sleeve provides plenty of it for a great price.

If you're looking to bring more connectivity to your Surface Laptop Go, the Surface Dock 2 is what you should go for. It gives you the ability to output to two displays and hook up plenty of peripheral accessories, making it an amazing choice if you want to enhance your productivity.

Lastly, we recommend the Western Digital MyPassport if you want to bolster the Surface Laptop Go's small storage space with an external 1TB drive. It's priced very affordably, so getting it is a great way to enjoy the type of storage you'd get with many of the best Microsoft Surface PCs on a budget-friendly device.
