again surprised consumers with the release of new mobile phone this week , Surface Duo. It is the long-awaited Surface phone that is awaited for years, and to add a spice to your surprise, it is running Google’s Android operating system. It is designed to be the smaller  then Surface Neo, a dual-screen device that was also released recently and running Windows 10X. The Surface Duo will now be able to run apps from the Google Play Store

Microsoft is making an Android telephone. What’s more, it has two screens, yes dual display. The Windows creator flaunted its gadget, called the Surface Duo, at an occasion in New York on Wednesday. Microsoft said the two screens (a marginally unexpected plan in comparison to Samsung’s foldable Galaxy Fold) would make clients increasingly beneficial, and it showed a video of individuals utilizing a stylus with the surface duo. The mobile phone has two 5.6-inch screens that grow to a 8.3-inch display and it’s just 4.8mm thin. You can fold it over like 2-in-1 laptops, due to a 360-degree hinge. Microsoft says it is  fully committed to dual-screen devices because they allow people to be more productive on the go and ease daily use.

The Surface Duo will now be able to run apps from the Google Play Store.

It didn’t give numerous different insights regarding the Surface Duo – which joins another, bigger double screen gadget, the Surface Neo – yet said it will be accessible in 2020. The occasion likewise observed the release of Windows 10 X software for double screen gadgets. Progressively mundane new items incorporated the Surface Laptop 3, Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 7 tablets, Surface Earbuds and the SQ1 custom Arm chip.

 

Microsoft Product Chief Panos Panay said in release :

Surface Duo product brings together the absolute best of Microsoft, and we’re partnering with Google to bring the absolute best of Android in one product”

Microsoft’s Surface Duo is the first pocketable Surface device. It looks & feels like a miniature tablet that is also a phone. Microsoft isn’t the  only first company to make a smartphone with two displays — but it is hoping to be the first that is really successful and gain market trend. ZTE’s Axom M hit the market in 2017 but didn’t exactly become successful. LG this year launched a Dual Screen attachment for its first 5G phone, the V50, as well as a version for its LG G8X ThinQ phone. But LG’s device hasn’t generated the same applaud as foldable phones from Samsung and Huawei and even rumored foldables from companies like Motorola

Microsoft has been working on the Surface Duo hardware for last three years, so this is not an immediate response to Samsung’s Galaxy Fold, Huawei’s Mate X. The company used two separate glass displays instead of folding plastic, and it is clear Microsoft thinks this is the way forward until foldable display technology is really ready.  There is a Snapdragon 855 processor inside right now that could be upgraded to Qualcomm’s latest next year. There is also no camera on the outside of the device, and the idea is that you use the one included above the display to shoot pictures by flipping the display over.
