Microsoft weird Surface Duo 2 has surprisingly become my favorite device of the year. It’s really rare that an item actually gets better a long time after it was released. In any case, Microsoft’s oft-neglected Surface Duo 2, which launched back in October 2021 with a lofty sticker price and a laundry list of bugs and issues that made it exceptionally frustrating to utilize, has evaded that pattern. In fact, the Duo 2 has worked on such a lot of that it’s presently one of my favorite cell phones, regardless of whether it’s as yet weird and one of a sufficiently kind that I can’t exactly prescribe it to the vast majority.

In case you’ve neglected, the Surface Duo 2 is a collapsing telephone with two major screens joined by a pivot. Dissimilar to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 3, which takes a solitary tablet-sized display and creases it in half to fit in your pocket, the Duo 2’s two screens make it seem more like two large telephones attached together and running the same software.

You can easily run two apps next to each other as on the off chance that you were holding two telephones at the same time, or you can span a solitary app across the two screens to imitate a small tablet. The two halves of the telephone are slim sufficient that it can overlap together like a book and fit into a pocket no sweat. Pair it with Microsoft’s Surface Slim Pen 2, and you have a portable digital scratch pad that can work similarly as well for note-taking, reading a digital book, or drafting an email.

At the point when I surveyed the Surface Duo 2 last year, none of its smart plan or book-like features mattered. The device was successfully broken, kept down by software messes with that made it infuriating to type on, frustrating to utilize, and ultimately disappointing. It was a $1,500 curiosity that could appeal to the most stalwart Microsoft brand stooges ready to tolerate its many faults so they might have the never-launched Courier device they dreamed about a while back.

Be that as it may, remarkably, Microsoft has not abandoned the Duo 2. In fact, the company has consistently issued software updates consistently to address the many issues the Duo 2 had at launch. A portion of these updates consisted of straightforward security patches and small bug fixes, while others, similar to the new June update, included more significant rectifications and added new features. Crucially, Microsoft has addressed the touch latency issues that were prevalent at launch and made it truly challenging to type on the Duo 2’s virtual keyboard — or even navigate the interface.

Realizing that Microsoft has been attending to many of my original complaints with the Duo 2, I took advantage of a new cost cut (the telephone can now be had for $1,000, which is as yet costly however significantly not exactly its launch cost) and a liberal trade-in offer and got one of my own. The goal was to check whether I could find out about what Microsoft is attempting to accomplish with this device while show-stopping bugs aren’t standing in its way.

It is very rare that an item is actually tracked down Better a long time after its release. In any case, Microsoft’s neglected Surface Duo 2, which launched in October 2021 with a lofty sticker price and a laundry list of bugs and issues that made it too frustrating to utilize, has resisted that pattern. In fact, the Duo 2 has worked on such a lot of that it’s presently one of my favorite cell phones, despite the fact that it’s as yet weird and novel enough that I can’t prescribe it to the vast majority.

In case you neglected, the Surface Duo 2 is a collapsing telephone with two large screens attached to a pivot. Dissimilar to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 3, which takes a tablet-sized display and creases it in half to fit in your pocket, the Duo 2’s two screens make it easy to overlay two larger telephones together and run the same software.
