End of the Road for Surface Go 4

End of the Road for Surface Go 4 – What’s Next?

Although at the moment there seems to be stock in the channel of some sku’s word is that the Go 4 is coming to the end of its availability.

Microsoft has officially set the end-of-service date for the Surface Go 4 in 2029. That means no more driver or firmware updates after this date. Organizations relying on this device should begin planning for transitions.

The Surface Go 4, released in September 2023, has served as a excellent compact versatile tablet for many deployments in the enterprise.

As it approaches its sunset, now is the time to evaluate upgrade paths and ensure continuity in your device strategy.

📅 Key Date: End of service – September 21, 2029

💡 What to do:

  • Begin planning for device refresh cycles and OS compatibility.
  • If you are mid deployment be assured we still have availability of all our Surface Go cases mounts and customisation.
  • We can still help with service contracts & out of warranty repair.
