The Surface Duo is Microsoft’s dual-screen compact device that’s powered by Android 10. Recent rumors suggest that it’ll be out much sooner than its initial “holiday 2020” timeframe. Here’s what we know about this exciting new handset.

Stick two outdated phones together does not make it better.
Sales flop.
Looks great but if priced at 999 dollars it will be D.O.A, 2 yr old specs and not a true expensive foldable display but 2 connected by a hinge, those huge bezels, i would not price this over 400. Or am i not understanding the price of a hinge.
Everyone wants a thin dual screen device, a super fast processor, and large screens, but it has to last all day and fit in your pocket easily. Oh yeah, they want a premium build at a low cost.
The hardware is way too weak. Will wait for the v2 to check it out. Geez the One plus Nord and the pixel 4a kill this thing on the hardware side and they cost less then 400. Get real.
Im getting this ig it runs desktop browsers
They should use SD 865+ with 5G support…. Using a year old chip without 5G is a huge mistake.
"Other foldables like Galaxy Fold"
This is not the same category.
Galaxy Fold is a screen that folds. Surface Duo is a device that folds.
Unless Microsoft want to shoot themselves in the leg (again), they should price it as low as possible, even at a loss, to get the customers. Then they can increase the price in future generations.
Before release, this is already a piece of junk. Go back to the drawing room.
This device screams productivity on the go and immersive portable entertainment
Another MS flob device
The one time where Android Central and Windows Central would focus on a same product! I wish Microsoft would ditch UWP in favor for android as they acknowledged themselves that UWP isn't the future. With Microsoft shifting to Fluent design that's much more mobile looking like android, and embracing android as the Windows Phone counterpart in the surface duo, can we expect Microsoft to replace Microsoft Store with Play Store? Remember Microsoft recently launched an Xbox store for Xbox games so Microsoft Store doesn't stand a chance.
I can't wait to try this, honestly
The surface duo will flop just like the rest of their mobile devices. Microsoft is too far behind to catch up.
How much?
How much?
How much?
it looks so lovely and clean. I love the surface aesthetics.
No support for external storage,deal breaker for me.
1000 dollars😱! Not at all for me.
but the bezels though… need to get rid of that
No NFC is a big pass for me.
Finally. It was about time a company would release a productivity or whatever device that also happens to make phone calls as opposed to a phone that happens to open spreadsheets.
Android is boring with stock user interface, Microsoft is adding new flavor to Android. Waiting eagerly for duo.
I can't wait for this. Xcloud is going to be so dope on this
This is so bad. Yet another boring fork of Android with a Microsoft twist to it. It could have been interesting if it ran on Windows. But we all know the story of Windows Mobile and its failure. Microsoft just cannot into mobile phones.
Anything more than 600$ is not worth it
I imagine android updates would be a nightmare for this device
Dead on Arrival.
Per usual, Microsoft wont deliver. And this will be a failure.
That battery though
Killer hardware but I’m convinced Microsoft wouldn’t be able to deliver on the software side of things. It’s always been their let down..
They can call it whatever category they invent, it's got to hold up to all the other phones. Else it has no place in my pocket. As much as I like the idea of dual screens and pens, I'll wait for version 2.
I will buy if it is of $1000 but FM Radio must be present
FM Radio ?
