One of the main challenge for an efficient implementation of quantum information technologies is how to counteract quantum noise. Quantum error correcting codes are therefore of primary interest for the evolution towards quantum computing and quantum Internet. We here analyze the performance of surface codes, one of the most important class for practical implementations, on both symmetric and asymmetric quantum channels. We derive approximate expressions, confirmed by simulations, to evaluate the performance of surface codes and of XZZX codes, and provide a metric to assess the advantage of codes with respect to uncoded systems. Our findings allow to characterize the performance by means of analytical formulas of surface codes, like, for example, the [[13, 1, 3]], the [[23, 1, 3/5]], the [[33, 1, 3/7]], and the [[41, 1, 5]] surface codes.
