TABcare Locking Anti-Theft Metal Case for Surface Go - VESA Ready

Our review finds the TABcare Locking Anti-Theft Metal Case best suited for businesses that need a secure, wall- or VESA-mounted solution for Microsoft Surface Go tablets. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of a lightweight aluminum enclosure with a one push button lock and support for both 75mm and 100mm VESA patterns, which makes it practical for kiosks, POS, time clocks and trade show displays where theft protection and full touchscreen access matter.

Key Features

• VESA compatibility: Supports 75x75mm and 100x100mm standards so the case mounts easily in both landscape and portrait modes for flexible displays.
• Full touch access: The design permits total screen access so the Surface Go retains full touchscreen functionality while secured.
• Quick locking: One push button lock lets staff install or release the tablet in seconds without extra tools.
• Lightweight metal build: Aluminum construction keeps the case sturdy yet portable at about 1.5 lb for easy installation and repositioning.
• Wall and kiosk ready: Dimensions and VESA support make it suitable for wall mounting, kiosks, POS terminals and trade show displays.

Who It's For

The case is ideal for retailers, restaurants and offices that deploy Microsoft Surface Go tablets as POS terminals, time clocks or interactive displays and need an anti-theft solution that still allows full touch operation. IT managers and installers will appreciate the VESA support for integrating tablets into standard mounts and display arms.

It is less appropriate for users who need heavy-duty ruggedization against drops or weather exposure, or those with tablets other than Surface Go 1st through 4th generation. Home users who only need a simple stand without security may also prefer a lighter, nonlocking option.
