Just finished installing macOS 15.0 on a Microsoft Surface Laptop Go, and I’m pretty stoked! This was my first Hackintosh adventure, using OpenCore 1.0.1 with a cocktail of kexts: AppleALC, BigSurface, BlueToolFixup, IntelBluetoothFirmware, IntelBTPatcher, itlwm, Lilu, USBToolBox, UTBMap, VirtualSMC, and WhateverGreen.

Here are the specs:

  • CPU: Intel Core i5-1035G1 (Ice Lake)
  • GPU: Intel UHD Graphics G1 (Ice Lake with 32 EUs)
  • RAM: 8GB LPDDR4x
  • Motherboard/Laptop Make and Model: Microsoft Surface Laptop Go (Model 1943)
  • Audio: Intel Ice Lake-LP Smart Sound Technology (Realtek ALC274 codec)
  • Wifi/BT Card: Intel Killer Wifi 6 AX1650i (201NGW)
  • Touchpad and touch display devices: ELAN

So far everything works pretty smoothly—well, except for bluetooth (will try to fix it), sleep mode (any tips?) and the fingerprint sensor. The boot time’s under 40 seconds. As for the fingerprint sensor, there might be hope since Lenovo has reportedly released a Linux driver for it 🤞

I also got it dual-booting—all managed by OpenCore—with FydeOS 18.1, customized with the 6.6 Linux kernel and a few Surface tweaks. It's blazing fast!

P.S. Dear Tim, if you’re reading this—how about releasing a proper 11/12-inch Mac? I don’t need (or want) an iPad. My 13-inch M2 MacBook Air is nice, but it’s not the ultra-portable Mac I want to take everywhere.
