Microsoft is going to sell two new adapters that will solve main connectivity issues of the upcoming Surface Go tablet. Unlike other Surface devices, the new Surface Go only comes with an USB-C port, so your existing USB-A based accessories cannot be connected directly. To solve this problem, Microsoft is releasing Surface USB-C-to-USB Adapter which will add standard USB functionality to your USB-C port to connect flash drives, keyboards, and other accessories.
Microsoft is also releasing Surface USB-C to Ethernet and USB Adapter that will allow you to connect to your network with data transfer rates up to 1 Gbps. This adapter also has an indicator light that confirms data transfer.
Both these adapters are compatible with all Surface models with built-in USB-C port. You can pre-order them from BestBuy using the links below:
- Microsoft – Surface USB-C-to-USB Adapter – Black – $19.99Â
