Microsoft just unveiled the Surface Duo 2, a dual-screen smartphone that aims to improve on last year’s Duo smartphone.
This year’s handset features a slightly larger 8.3-inch display with a 2688 x 1892 pixel resolution, and both screens by themselves measure in at 5.8-inch. This time around, the displays also sport a 90Hz refresh rate.
Battery-wise, the device features a 4,449mAh battery split across two cells, which is a lot better than the original’s 3,577mAh battery.
Additionally, this model sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor and 5G connectivity. Further, there’s a triple camera setup with a 12-megapixel primary, telephoto and a 16-megapixel ultra-wide. On the front, the device features a 12-megapixel selfie sensor.
Moreover, the device comes in two colours, including ‘Glasier’ like the original Duo, and ‘Obsidian.’
The Surface Duo costs $1,899 and for some reason, isn’t available to pre-order on Microsoft’s Canadian website anymore (we’re not sure why). However, the handset releases on October 21st.
