The Surface Duo is an amazing piece of tech but it’s certainly not for everyone. For starters, it was released in late 2020, so it doesn’t have the latest specs. That’s not even the worst part.
The Surface Duo is a dual-screen device, so it’s more durable than phones with bendable screens. The two 5.6-inch screens are separated by a hinge and this compartmentalization makes it a productivity beast.
It has the Snapdragon 855 chipset under the hood, which is several generations old, but is sufficiently smooth for most use cases. And, yes, the phone no longer gets updates, but it still gets Google Play System Updates, so you are not exactly at the mercy of cybercriminals.
The phone has a 360 hinge and you can fold it all the way back around to use it as a conventional phone.
