Microsoft has finally launched Surface Go 2 and Surface Book 3 in India. These two devices were originally launched back in May in the US, but as was the case with other Surface products, both Surface Go 2 and Book 3 made a late entry into the Indian market. To be more specific, Microsoft has launched these latest Surface devices in India almost six months after the US launch.

Microsoft clarifies that the Surface Go 2 is generally available, while the Surface Book 3 is available only for commercial customers in India. You can find a local commercial reseller here. You can also see the pricing below.
