I just purchased a surface laptop go 3 with a surface pen. The guy at bestbuy said it would work, but it does not. Is there a pen that works with this laptop, or do I need to return both the pen and the laptop?

    Hello David,

    Thank you so much for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you wanted to know if there are any compatible pens for your Surface Laptop Go 3.

    Just like its predecessors (Surface Laptop Go (1stgen) and Surface Laptop Go 2), we built Surface Laptop Go 3 to be an elegant, low-cost laptop that doesn’t compromise on performance. While Surface Laptop Go 3 offers a beautiful touchscreen PixelSense Display, we offer other Surface products better suited for inking with Surface Pen. Instead, we focused on the scenarios most useful on a more traditional laptop. As a result, Surface Laptop Go 3 is built with the materials, capabilities, features, and price to meet the high standards we’ve established as Surface, while also meeting the needs of a new group of potential customers. Hence, Surface Pen or any other pens will not work in this device.

    I suggest returning these devices if you would like to consider purchasing a Surface that is compatible with pens.

    Hope this helps!

    Best regards,

    Rolando S.
