It’s Zach Bowden To receive information on the status of the Surface Duo series from Microsoft. To date, the company has released two models. However, Microsoft hasn’t released any new Surface Duo-branded devices since September 2021. As such, Microsoft continues to sell a Snapdragon 888-powered device as its flagship Android offering, often at full price. According to Bowden, Microsoft seems unlikely to launch the Surface Duo 3 this year either.
Microsoft has reportedly completed a dual-screen development for the Surface Duo 2, dubbed the Surface Duo 3. Bowden claims the Surface Duo 3 has thinner bezels and a narrower form factor, plus wireless charging and power. other quality of life improvements. Microsoft has now decided to ‘move’ the Surface Duo series away from the split-screen form factor, with the Surface Duo 3 canceled in favor of a ‘true foldable smartphone’. The next Surface Duo is said to feature a 180-degree hinge and cover screen. In other words, the next Surface Duo will look more like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 or Oppo Find N2 than the Surface Duo 2.
Bowden adds that the next Surface Duo doesn’t yet have a “tangible loading window.” The Surface Duo series may get a traditional single-screen version; Microsoft hasn’t released a Candy Bar smartphone since February 2016, when it announced the Lumia 650. The company made a prototype of the Lumia 960, images of which leaked in 2017. Briefly, industry sources claim that Microsoft has pitched the Surface Duo with no clear successor to the Surface Duo 2 in sight.
