Microsoft is the latest tech giant to enter the foldable phone race with its Surface Duo, a smartphone that comes with two screens joined together with a 360-degree hinge.
The phone launches on September 10, coming just after Samsung unveiled its third foldable phone and major phone makers like Huawei and Motorola have launched devices with bendable screens.

The Surface Duo runs on Google’s Android software, and the company is positioning it as a mobile productivity machine, much like its other Surface products. During a press briefing earlier this month, Panos Panay, Microsoft’s chief product officer, showed how the phone can be used in a variety of different poses, demonstrating how apps can automatically adjust to whichever orientation the device is being used in.
Microsoft’s approach differs from that of rivals like Samsung, Huawei, and Motorola, all of which have created phones with screens that physically bend and fold rather than attaching two screens to create one device. Some devices aim to offer a more modern version of the flip phone, as the Galaxy Z Flip and Motorola Razr do, while others like the Huawei Mate X, Surface Duo, and Galaxy Z Fold 2 combine the elements of both a phone and a tablet.

I just got my hands on the Surface Duo, and it feels like a well-built, premium phone that could serve as a promising entrant in the foldable phone space. But I’ll have to wait until I’ve actually spent time using it to really weigh in on its value and what it brings to the market.[ATTACH=full]321374[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]321374[/ATTACH]

Oh, and the early concepts of this phone is what started the folding phone craze. Back when it was set to run Windows 10.

I can imagine. All Team China members use Chinese phones. that is often the main driving force behind loving China so deeply.Sometimes it is the only reason for team China to love China. Men and their phones.

but like you they also admire ‘real’ phones though expensive. ukishika hio ya microsoft hatutapumua. pole pole uanze kujifanya pro-U.S.
