Its been a very long time coming, but since today Microsoft is officially back in the smart device organization with the launch of its collapsible Surface Duo. Revealed in October, the businesss brand-new phone takes the type of a two-screened Android device (yes, Android) collaborated with a hinge that permits it to open up like a book. Microsoft states the 2 screens are created for efficiency.
With its launch, the Surface Duo joins a small but growing group of foldable offerings, consisting of Samsungs upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 2 and Motorolas Razr, all of which provide a window into the future of phones. But even though all 3 are squarely in the collapsible classification, they still vary fit and develop.
The Surface Duo has double screens, for example, while the Fold 2 and Razr both feature a bendable display with a hinged seam. The Surface Duo and Fold 2, on the other hand, widen when unfurled. The Surface Duos 2 5.6-inch screens open up to form an extensive 8.1-inch screen that is closer in size to a tablet than a phone.

The Surface Duo includes only a single 11-megapixel shooter on the within, which can become an external video camera if the Duo screens are flipped around. Motorolas Razr gets multiple lenses as part of its cam set-up– something that will likely appear in the next-gen Fold. Its also worth mentioning that the Surface Duo doesnt have support for 5G cordless innovation unlike the Fold 2.
