Hey guys, last weekend my mom bought a new Surface Go. She bought the low spec version ( 4gb ram). She want to upgrade the ram afterwards, she also told the promoter at the shop that they said the surface go can upgrade the ram. I knew that the ram was lpddr3 (mobile ram).But does it upgradable guys???

Sorry to say but she should have bought the higher spec, it also comes with a faster SSD.

But it is all Soldered on

Can't be upgraded. Take it back, fork over a boatload of extra cash and get the better model.
