Microsoft Surface Duo: A foldable smartphone from Microsoft

The Surface Duo is a new step in the direction of Microsoft's smartphone division. Besides the bigger one Surface Neo, which should be a larger tablet, you have a real smartphone here - even if more for the business user. The first details and pictures.

While the Surface Neo should run with Windows 10X, the Surface Duo should also be able to run Android apps. However, it is still unclear whether you will really rely on Android. A special Windows version with Android modification would be conceivable. Here one could not and probably could not give any more precise details. Rather, this is also an outlook towards the future, what will be possible and what is planned.

Surface Duo: dual screen and foldable

Unlike the Samsung Galaxy Fold, the Surface Duo will come with two "separate" displays. So you can see the 360-degree hinge in the middle and the display does not fold "directly". In addition to support for Android apps, you should also have full access to the Google Play Store and be able to do everything possible on it. As with a smartphone, only with two displays and not directly Android as the operating system.

The Surface Duo is probably only interesting for business users - during phone calls you can open the calendar or a note app on the other display. It will be too big and unwieldy for private users - it won't fit in your pocket. Unfortunately, more details will only be available here at the end of 2020.
