Microsoft Surface Duo Endlich gut?

Das Surface Duo gibt es in zwei Speichervarianten: mit 128 GB Speicher für 1.549 Euro sowie mit 256 GB Speicher für 1.649 Euro. Interessierte erhalten das Surface Duo im Microsoft Store oder bei MediaMarkt und Saturn. Für das Gebotene ist das meines Erachtens definitiv zu viel. Das zeigt auch der starke Preiseinbruch bei unseren Nachbarn in den USA.

60% Microsoft Surface Duo review: A beautiful, bewildering phone
Quelle: Tom's Guide EN→DE
I want to love the Surface Duo, and sometimes when I’m using it, I really do. Despite its flaws, this device feels truly special. The Surface Duo’s meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful design supports its dual-screen ambitions remarkably well. It encourages you to try things and work in ways you previously never imagined on a mobile phone. What surprised me most about the Surface Duo during my time with it is that it proves Microsoft right in a sense. I can recognize now that there’s enormous potential in dual-screen devices when done properly, and Microsoft has gotten closer to realizing it than anyone before them. As it stands, though, the Surface Duo’s potential is in dire need of refinement, and it’s saddled by a few too many headaches to recommend.

The Microsoft Surface Duo is not designed for gamers, as its good touch accuracy and rare frame drops are not enough to compensate for lack of smoothness and other issues. For other users, however, the device’s twin display offers decent color and good multitasking functionality.

It’s at that point you have to face the fact that the Surface Duo doesn’t give you the same amenities its flagship contemporaries do, even though it costs far more in some cases. Surface Duo users will have to live with an underwhelming camera that’s a pain to use; an outdated processor with the bare minimum of RAM; no 5G, wireless charging or NFC; and only average battery life. The more you ruminate over everything you give up, the more you’re convinced to cut your losses and go with a more reliable big-screen phone like the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra instead. What surprised me most about the Surface Duo during my time with it is that it proves Microsoft right in a sense. I can recognize now that there’s enormous potential in dual-screen devices when done properly, and Microsoft has gotten closer to realizing it than anyone before them.

We’re glad the Microsoft Surface Duo exists. Whether you should buy it is another issue. A bad camera and buggy, often laggy, software mean the actual experience doesn’t match the slick design. The Microsoft Surface Duo is an experiment, and not a failed one. We’re just not sure we want to live with, or pay at least £1350 for, an experiment.

60% Microsoft Surface Duo review: An innovative idea, imperfectly executed
Quelle: Expert Reviews EN→DE
I ordered the Surface Duo simply to be able to have “Android by Microsoft”, to satisfy that inner, extremely childish urge to scream “I told you so!” at the Steve Ballmer-era Microsoft management. I wasn’t expecting it to make me sit back and reconsider the smartphone as a device, its relationship to the evolving world of smartwatches, and to ask all those questions about operational use, social pleasantries and our reliance on this technology. If these things give you pause for thought, the Surface Duo is absolutely right for you. If you would like to do more on a pocket-friendly device than a smartphone can deliver, the Duo is worth purchasing – although I’d still wait for an updated version in the hope of a better camera. I just hope that Microsoft has the determination to push forward with this concept and doesn’t abandon it as a mistake.

As I box up the Duo and wait to get my $1,500 back, I'm left feeling hopeful about the second or third generation Duo. Microsoft has found a way to bring the ease of pairing devices like a Surface Pen, and a seamless audio experience with the Surface Earbuds to a non-Windows device, and it's doing so with a completely novel design.

Phones are like lifeboats, now. iPads ($270 at Back Market) and Chromebooks are classrooms. VR is my escape pod.

As soon as I got this phone out of the box, I know I really, really liked it. Two screens for the price of... two? Perfect. Lets see if the Microsoft Surface Duo can handle the stress of every day life. The halves of this phone are super thin. When folded shut, it becomes as thick as a normal phone.

I can’t say it’s been a blast trying this gadget out. Normally I’m all over new ground-breaking technology, as I was first in line for the Asus Transformer tablet and AiO and have been part of dozens of Kickstarter campaigns in the past. But that’s the thing – this feels like I got something from a Kickstarter, but paid premium prices for it.

The Microsoft Surface Duo is Really Bad

I hate doing write-ups like these because I see the potential with Surface Duo. In fact, when I’m chillin’ on the couch at night and need only to watch Twitch or YouTube TV or browse Twitter or look at Instagram or catch-up on news, it’s pretty great. Having two screens this close to one another that move around with a really cool hinge system is an experience I could totally get used to. Using it to cook this weekend was fun, letting my kid play games and watch shows on it in play forts he had built all weekend was cool, and whipping it out just to fold and unfold is satisfying in ways a pen click will never top.

It might be too early to gauge how well the Surface Duo performs from a sales perspective, but it is one of the more unique products available right now. The handset is compatible with the Surface Pen stylus and the package includes a protective bumper. Microsoft has one more dual-screen device called the Surface Neo, which might likely be released in 2021.

Microsoft Surface Duo Review
Quelle: Mobile Tech Review Archive.org version
Lisa Gade reviews the Microsoft Surface Duo, a dual screen folding Android phone that’s more innovative and enjoyable than you might expect. The Duo has 360 degree hinges and 2 OLED PixelSense 5.6” 1800 x 1350 displays that can be used individually or open as an 8.1” tablet. You can use 2 apps at a time and flick them front one screen to another, or span both displays. This is the thinnest smartphone on the market at 4.8mm (9.9mm closed). It works with the Surface Pen and Surface Slim pen and uses MPP (aka N-Trig) technology, so the Galaxy Note isn’t the only active pen smartphone option anymore. It has an 11MP camera, 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0 and a GPS. It runs Android 10 on the Snapdragon 855 and is available with 128 or 256GB storage. It’s compatible with AT&T, T-Mobile (and thus Sprint) and Verizon. Microsoft sells it unlocked and there’s an AT&T locked model. Pricing starts at $1,399, and like Samsung and Apple, Microsoft has a trade in program to help offset the price.

The Duo doesn’t know whether it’s a phone, tablet, high-tech Kindle alternative or a pocket-friendly computer, but that’s what makes the Surface Duo so endearing. The Duo challenges conventional thinking — does the Duo really need to fit into a box? The Duo’s “identity,” in my opinion, is being a funky foldable that doesn’t want to be pigeonholed.

Surface Duo Review: Double Trouble

What if a Microsoft Surface could fit in your pocket? That’s the question Microsoft has been asking (in some form or another) since well before the Surface brand ever hit the mainstream. From a marketing perspective, it’s a good narrative – better to lean on one of the company’s most successful consumer brands than risk invoking the dreaded carcass of “Windows Phone.” And enough companies have dipped their toe in the waters between smartphone and laptop over the years to suggest that maybe there’s some potential there – Samsung’s recent experiments with foldables being the most obvious example.

Microsoft Surface Duo review: An exciting, expensive, erratic affair
Quelle: Engadget Archive.org version
Microsoft's Surface Duo is the first phone we've seen from the company in a while, and it's a strange device. Sleek and stylish, the Surface Duo looks like nothing so much as two phones stuck together, folding with a visible hinge down the middle, and that's essentially how it feels. The seam makes the Duo questionable as a tablet - most apps that span both screens don't format properly or have gaps - but the Duo makes using two apps at once a breeze. Tasks like emailing while updating your calendar, watching video while scrolling twitter, or making a video call while taking notes make you wonder how you ever managed with a single screen.

Microsoft's Surface popularized a new category: the 2-in-1 PC. Now Microsoft is hoping to do the same thing on a smaller scale with the Surface Duo, a $1,399 phone-tablet that tries to enable those multitasking, productive workflows that never quite happen on your single-screen handset. It's ambitious, certainly, but it's not entirely successful, with bugs and ergonomic issues that sometimes make the Duo confusing and frustrating to use. While it costs even more, the $1,999 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 is a much more successful example of a folding phone.

Quelle: CNet EN→DE Archive.org version
The Microsoft Surface Duo may be one of Microsoft's most unusual experiments. It's a dual-screened Android phone. And I have one. But for now, I'm just looking inside the box. A full review of the Duo is coming soon, but in the meantime I opened it up to see what's inside. I got a look at a see-through version of the Duo to peek at its circuits a few weeks ago, but didn't have the retail boxed device. We don't know the international price of the Duo yet, but its $1,399 price tag converts to about £1,070 or AU$1,960.

Surface Duo: Windows and Android, together at last
Quelle: Engadget Archive.org version
Dual-screen devices have always been held back by their software. From the Kyocera Echo and the Samsung Henessy, to the ZTE Axon M and Lenovo’s Yoga Book, companies have come close to delivering a physical design that might work. But in the real-world, these multi-display devices have failed to deliver. They’ve typically run a tweaked version of Android that has been woefully inadequate at making use of bigger screens, not to mention extra panels. Yet, Microsoft chose Android 10 to power its dual-screen debut, the Surface Duo.

Surface Duo 2 im Test: Klapphandy zwischen Mini-Notebook und Smartphone
Quelle: Computerbild
Auch das neue Surface Duo 2 kommt mit Android. Nach dem Flop von Windows Phone und Windows 10 Mobile hatte Microsoft keine andere Wahl, preist es dennoch als "perfekten Begleiter für Windows 11". Die technische Leistung hat Microsoft beim Duo 2 gesteigert: schneller Prozessor, größeres Display, endlich eine ernstzunehmende Kamera. Doch die Bedienung des Doppel-Displays bleibt gewöhnungsbedürftig und umständlich. Und ausgerechnet der einfachste Bedienmodus – ganz umgeklappt über ein Display – wirkt mit dem störenden Kamera-Block unnatürlich. Einzige Alternative: Microsoft muss dafür sorgen, dass mehr Apps für zwei Displays optimiert werden. Oder beim nächsten Modell gleich auf ein echtes Faltdisplay nach Art des Galaxy Z Fold 3 setzen.

Microsoft Surface Duo 2 in 2023: Is It Worth Buying?
Quelle: Know Your Mobile EN→DE
The Surface Duo 2 is definitely a not-for-everyone smartphone. However, based on my own user experience, I will recommend buying the device in 2023. Despite all the minor bugs and issues, I personally enjoyed using a dual-screen phone with all its great advantages. Perfect for e-reading, note-taking, watching videos, Xbox gaming, streaming, meetings, and calls, Surface Duo 2 provides exceptional possibilities for both working mode and entertainment. You also get a solid battery life, a classy camera, and instant access to the best of Microsoft 365 and every Android app in the Google Play store.

Even with a price drop, that means the Surface Duo 2 still doesn’t have mainstream appeal. It’s an impressive device in many ways, but not one the average consumer should be considering unless they want to completely change how they approach their smartphone use. For others, it could be enticing.

Performance isn’t up there with the best flagship phones, and the design has its limitations – which makes us think it’s best used as a companion device rather than as a replacement for your smartphone. Given the price, that’s a tough ask. For the same amount you could buy an iPhone 13 and still have cash left over for an iPad. That said, the pocket-friendly form factor and Microsoft service integration could still be enough to convince you otherwise.

Microsoft’S Weird Surface Duo 2 Has Surprisingly Become My Favorite Device Of The Year
Quelle: The Verge EN→DE
Rumors have it that Microsoft won’t be launching a Duo 3 this year, instead holding it for 2023. That would give it more time to iron out issues and avoid the bug-filled launches that plagued both the original Duo and the Duo 2. Microsoft could also address the aspects of the Duo design that make it difficult to use as a primary phone (a touchscreen on the outside would go a long way here). Perhaps it can figure out a way to attach and charge the pen without resorting to a goofy and expensive add-on case. A recent patent filing from the company imagines a Duo-like device that utilizes a single panel that can fold 360 degrees instead of two discrete screens attached by a hinge. I’m not sure what problem that would solve other than eliminating the gap between the screens when you’re watching video, but it definitely would look cool. Either way, if Microsoft remains committed to the Duo form factor and continues to iterate on it, I’ll be watching. The Duo 2 has gone from one of the most problematic devices I’ve reviewed to one of my favorites, and I’m curious to see where Microsoft takes it next.

Surface Duo 2 Long-Term Review: Revisiting A Different Kind Of Foldable
Quelle: MrMobile
Just last week on this channel we were exploring what it means to blur the line between smartphone and computer … but I guess the reality is that I’ve been thinking about it since about 2007, when I realized during an otherwise uneventful walk around my college town that I could post a new LiveJournal entry (yep, I was one of those guys) right from my pocket instead of going home for my computer. This week, instead of replacing a PC with a smartphone, we’re talking about bringing a PC feature to the smartphone: the idea of a second screen. The subject of today’s episode of Into The Fold is the Surface Duo 2 from Microsoft, and yes, you’ve seen it before on this channel – but it’s not the phone you remember.

60% Microsoft Surface Duo 2 review
Quelle: Tech Advisor EN→DE
From a hardware perspective, the Surface Duo 2 is undoubtedly a success. Almost all the upgrades Microsoft introduced hit the mark, including performance from the Snapdragon 888, a new triple rear camera system and much-improved battery life. The new 90Hz displays are also excellent and having two 5.8in screens within such a compact form factor is genuinely impressive. However, Microsoft is yet to fully address the Duo’s software issues. Most apps on the Play Store simply aren’t designed to work across both screens, with app crashes and missing information relatively common. Multitasking is great for two apps side-by-side, but doesn't offer much flexibility if your workflow differs. Ultimately, unless you’re heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem and love the dual-screen form factor, you’re probably better off looking elsewhere.

Quelle: Expert Reviews EN→DE
It’s quite obvious that the Surface Duo 2 is an enticing upgrade. The sort of phone I was hoping to use when the original model first launched in 2020, Microsoft finally has a foldable worth buying on its second attempt – even if it is stonkingly expensive. For most phone buyers, a humdrum single-screen handset is the better purchase for a while to come, but for anyone with a deep bank balance looking to venture into fresh territory, the Surface Duo 2 isn’t a bad choice at all.

65% Microsoft Surface Duo 2 review: Do not pay $1,500 for this
Quelle: Android Police EN→DE
Unless you're a major Microsoft fan. The Surface Duo 2 is great at some things you can't do well (or at all) on other phones. For example, you can run two apps side-by-side without feeling cramped, and some apps even have custom interfaces for the Duo that make them much more powerful. However, all of those apps come from Microsoft. If you don't live deep in Microsoft's ecosystem, the Duo 2 will be a consistently frustrating experience. Even just checking notifications and taking photos is tedious on this device. A lot of my frustration is down to bugs, which are rife in the Duo 2's custom version of Android 11. Apps crash far too often, and some of the worst offenders are pre-loaded on the phone. Even the camera app crashes. If you just span Outlook or run a few MS apps side-by-side, you won't run into the worst of it. As soon as you start rotating, typing, and multitasking with both those screens, you'll start to wonder why you spent so much on this phone.

The Microsoft Surface Duo 2 Dual Screen Device Can’t Be Easily Compared to Other Smartphones
Quelle: Tech Acute EN→DE
Just like its predecessor, it is unlikely that the Surface Duo 2 will make a lot of sales this year or the next. By the time others gear up to incorporate the new Snapdragon chips and bring out other features at economical prices, Microsoft will always lag if they keep releasing their new phones with almost outdated features towards the end of the year. From the engineering perspective, the innovations such as the form factor seem flawless. But for a customer, it might be a dead-end road.

Finally, the price. $1,899.99 is a steep ask for any phone, especially one that’s not available with carriers since most people still finance or subsidize phones that way. It’s even tougher to swallow when the phone in question is buggy and core features like the camera don’t work properly. Microsoft could totally fix these problems with subsequent software updates, but given the company’s track record on software with the original Duo, I wouldn’t hold my breath. Unless you’re swimming in cash and want to buy the Duo 2 just to experience it, I would recommend not getting this phone. There are too many problems and the cost is too high to justify. The Surface Duo 2 starts at $1,899 and is available at retailers like Best Buy and the Microsoft Store.

When Microsoft released the original Surface Duo back in 2020, it was all about providing professionals an easy way to work on the go, getting rid of the barrier between being in the office and being on the road. It was an odd thing to sell in the middle of a global pandemic, to be sure, but the Surface Duo 2 is here right when the world seems to be at least starting to reopen. And because the world just wasn’t at a stage where something like the Surface Duo 2 was needed a year ago, it feels kind of like a fresh start this time around. We know we’re much more out-and-about than we were when we reviewed the original Android phone, and we know we’re certainly not alone. But the Surface Duo 2, in the face of this fresh start, comes with a higher price tag, starting at $1,499 in the US, which is a bit more than the $1,399 (£1,350, about AU$1,930) that Microsoft asked for last time. With that higher price you are getting a flagship-level mobile chipset in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888, along with 8GB of RAM and way better cameras – both front and back.

The 2nd gen Surface Duo 2 dual screen Android phone offers vastly improved hardware specs compared to the first version. The smartphone that wants to be a mini laptop runs Android 11 on the Snapdragon 888 CPU with 5G, and it has triple rear cameras instead of the solo inner camera on the first version. The 800 nit dual 5.8” OLED displays are excellent and combine to a single 8.3” big screen (with seam in the middle) that compatible with Surface pens including the new Surface Slim Pen 2 that magnetically attaches to the phone and recharges wirelessly. The phone is sold unlocked for use with most carriers in the US and it’s available in your choice of white or black. It competes with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, with the upside is there’s no flexible display here to break.

This shows that Microsoft is continuing to do its work on improving the Duo 2's form factor. However, the remaining issues that beset the Duo 2, and the steep price tag of $1,500, the Duo 2 is not still something an ordinary, everyday user would want to purchase.

70% Microsoft Surface Duo 2
Quelle: PC Mag EN→DE
It was easy to bash the first Surface Duo because on a basic level, it didn't work. The Duo 2 works. It's just really strange. The Surface Duo 2 is the Wolverine of mobile multitasking. "I'm the best at what I do," it says, "but sometimes what I do doesn't look very nice." Yes, it's certainly possible to do split-screen on other Android phones like the Galaxy Z Fold3, but it isn't nearly as easy nor as obvious. If your ideal phone workflow involves copying and pasting a lot from one window to another, the Duo is a uniquely usable tool. But while the Duo 2 does things other $1,500 phones can't do, it doesn't do things other $1,500 phones can, like deliver class-leading image quality or feel comfortable when held up to your head for a phone call. It isn't really an unfolding tablet like the Z Fold3. It's very much its own thing. If you're interested in the Duo 2, go into the experience with your eyes open, your curiosity alive, and your credit card well-financed. It doesn't earn our Editors' Choice award, but for a certain kind of mobile multitasker, it'll be a godsend.

78% Surface Duo 2 review: Microsoft's folding phone is innovative, but impractical
Quelle: CNet EN→DE
The Surface Duo 2 has a new triple-camera system with three lenses: a 12-megapixel wide lens, 12-megapixel telephoto lens and a 16-megapixel ultrawide lens. It's a big upgrade from the single 11-megapixel lens on the previous Surface Duo, but this certainly isn't a phone for photo enthusiasts. During my tests, the Surface Duo 2 produced photos that were clear and crisp, but in many cases weren't as well-lit and colorful as those taken on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and iPhone 13 Pro Max. This is usually most noticeable when looking at the sky in the background during outdoor shots, which was sometimes a completely different color compared to the phones from Samsung and Apple. Photos taken with the Surface Duo 2's zoom lens also weren't sharp or vibrant enough, and the same can be said for images taken with its 12-megapixel selfie camera.

63% Surface Duo 2 review: Microsoft's second dual-screen hybrid is a letdown
Quelle: Engadget EN→DE
I could go on about all the little ways the Duo 2 struggles, but that would take forever. Some of them are minor and just require a little adjusting, while others, like the camera app, are downright unforgivable. Things Microsoft introduced to improve the experience, like the triple rear cameras and Glance bar, are only slight improvements. I appreciate the faster screens, but at this price they’re almost a given. I haven’t been able to test the Slim Pen 2, but it’s worth noting you’ll have to pay an extra $130 for it. Like the Galaxy Z Fold 3, the Duo 2 is suffering a sort of identity crisis. Neither device works well as a phone replacement, but at least Samsung’s foldable has reliable software and good cameras. Despite the improvements, the Duo 2 is still a kind of gimmicky device that’s costly to boot and only people with $1,500 to burn and who really need a dual-screen phone should buy it.

65% Microsoft Surface Duo 2 review: Maybe third time's a charm
Quelle: Android Police EN→DE
A lot of my frustration is down to bugs, which are rife in the Duo 2's custom version of Android 11. Apps crash far too often, and some of the worst offenders are pre-loaded on the phone. Even the camera app crashes. If you just span Outlook or run a few MS apps side-by-side, you won't run into the worst of it. As soon as you start rotating, typing, and multitasking with both those screens, you'll start to wonder why you spent so much on this phone. Microsoft's ecosystem is valuable if that's where you need to be, and the Duo 2 could be a good phone for someone who is equal parts interested in dual-pane Outlook and streaming Gears 5 over 5G. If that's all you need from a phone, the Duo 2 is where it's at. But I am forced to remind you of the price tag. Is this experience worth $1,500? If you ask me, no. I have a hard time even imagining a consumer who would get their money's worth with the Duo 2.

60% Microsoft Surface Duo 2 Review: Duo-Over Or Strike Two?
Quelle: The Verge EN→DE
It’s easy to see the potential in the Surface Duo line. You can dream up all kinds of different ways you’d put two screens to use, get more work done, and live in the future. But it doesn’t take long for those dreams to come crashing down to reality. Between the bugs and inherent awkwardness of the form factor, the Duo 2 is just a difficult device to live with day to day, much like its predecessor. Despite Microsoft addressing many of the omissions of the first generation — a proper camera, NFC, dual speakers, 5G, current processor — the Duo 2 still feels like a secondary device, something you carry alongside your primary phone for taking pictures, paying for things, and general phone stuff. If you do want a futuristic device that straddles the line between phone and tablet and has pen input, you’ll be better off with the Samsung Galaxy Fold 3, which has a better multimedia experience; can be used easier in one hand; and far fewer bugs. Or maybe you just wait, after all, this segment is still very much in its infancy.

Microsoft Surface Duo 2 hands-on: Holding potential
Quelle: Mobile Syrup EN→DE
The top of the Duo 2, where the bump wedges between the two sides, feels sturdy. But without similar support on the bottom half, it feels like an unfortunate amount of pressure could cause some serious damage. In other words, don’t squeeze the Duo 2 too hard. All in all, the Duo 2 feels like an improvement over the original Duo, but it’s hard to say yet if it’s worth the $1,899.99. My gut says probably not, but I’ll need to spend more time with the Duo 2 to be certain. There will be a full review coming soon with a deep dive into everything — the new camera system, performance with the Snapdragon 888 chipset, battery life and more.

Microsoft Surface Duo 2 review in progress: 3 things I love, 3 things I don't
Quelle: Zdnet.com EN→DE
I haven't really used the cameras outside of a couple of photos of random stuff on my desk. Even those boring pictures look much better than I remember the Duo's camera being, but I need more time to fully test them. I'm sure my experience and opinion of the Duo 2 will drastically change over the coming days and weeks. I'll keep updating this review in progress as that happens.

60% Microsoft Surface Duo 2 review: Better, but still buggy
Quelle: PC World EN→DE
The old chestnut is that Microsoft is governed by the “rule of threes.” Like Windows 3.0, the third time’s the charm. We’d say the second time certainly isn’t, at least in the case of the Surface Duo 2. Let’s face it: Some really, really big companies (Apple, Huawei, Samsung, Xiaomi) have spent very large amounts of money designing top-of-the-line cameras for their smartphones. Microsoft might hope that the Surface Duo 2’s camera is good enough, but it falls short in my book. In other areas — NFC and 5G — they’ve checked the boxes customers demanded. Some of Microsoft’s old Lumia Windows Phones were good, and even great, but those were phones that few bought as Android and iOS took hold. The Surface Duo 2 accomplishes what Microsoft set out to achieve: Develop a productive dual-screen phablet-y device that absolutely works unlike anything else under certain scenarios.

Alright, I’ll give Microsoft some credit. The Surface Duo 2 is certainly much better than its predecessor, offering a triple-lens, rear-facing camera, a smoother UI experience and a cool new Glance Bar. However, there are still some bothersome aspects that Microsoft should fix, including how difficult it is to take notes while simultaneously using another app. I’m also not convinced about the camera app; it doesn’t seem stable, especially when the screen times out. I always like to reflect on which consumers would benefit from the products I review, and in this case, the Surface Duo 2 is suitable for on-the-go, Microsoft 365 users who are tired of not being able to view two apps at the same time on their devices. For those who often need to cross-reference between two documents on different apps, the Surface Duo 2 is a dream come true and an excellent solution for those who despise the limitations of non-foldable phones. While the Surface Duo 2 is decent, I can’t help but feel as if I must sleep with one eye open.

First, this is not a phone for everyone; it’s not supposed to be a phone for everyone. This is a phone for someone who values productivity over creation. This is a phone for someone who either will carry a second phone with a good camera or someone who doesn’t really care about the camera. The person buying this phone doesn’t want an iPhone, or a Galaxy S series phone. They want something that’s unique and fun and they don’t mind paying a lot extra for it.

It was easy to bash the first Surface Duo because on a basic level, it didn't work. The Duo 2 works. It's just really strange. The Surface Duo 2 is the Wolverine of mobile multitasking. "I'm the best at what I do," it says, "but sometimes what I do doesn't look very nice." Yes, it's certainly possible to do split-screen on other Android phones like the Galaxy Z Fold3, but it isn't nearly as easy nor as obvious. If your ideal phone workflow involves copying and pasting a lot from one window to another, the Duo is a uniquely usable tool. But while the Duo 2 does things other $1,500 phones can't do, it doesn't do things other $1,500 phones can, like deliver class-leading image quality or feel comfortable when held up to your head for a phone call. It isn't really an unfolding tablet like the Z Fold3. It's very much its own thing. If you're interested in the Duo 2, go into the experience with your eyes open, your curiosity alive, and your credit card well-financed. It doesn't earn our Editors' Choice award, but for a certain kind of mobile multitasker, it'll be a godsend.

Microsoft Surface Duo 2 Review, Pros, and Cons
Quelle: OI Spice Tech News EN→DE
The features are pretty much the same as the current-gen foldable phone. But what makes the phone stand would be the software optimization. Unlike the Surface Duo, the Microsoft Surface Duo 2 would have better optimization, while the aesthetic hinge design makes the phone stand out from the competition. But at the same time, it divides the screen into two partitions. Anyway, if you are looking for heavy performance, you will get superb support, whether the camera or the battery. While if you have an obsession with buying the latest technology phones, the Microsoft Surface Duo 2 might be a better complement to your bookshelf. It may be a strong competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3; as you can see, the phone hits many sections. But does it adds value unless and until you are a Microsoft fan since you can get better foldable phones at the same price with better customization? If you’re looking for an alternative option, you can try the Samsung galaxy Z fold 3 or Xiaomi Mix Fold smartphone.

Hands on: Microsoft’s Surface Duo 2 mostly fixes the problems of the original

From the brief amount of time that I got to spend with the Surface Duo 2, I became fairly smitten with it. For one thing, it’s one heck of a sexy device, especially in that new Obsidian color. Seriously though; we talk so much about new features that I feel like the new color is going under the radar. The Glacier color is beautiful, and maybe it’s because it’s new, but the Obsidian color really blows me away. I can’t remember the last time I said that about a black smartphone (sorry Samsung). When Microsoft released the original Surface Duo with such a subpar camera, their defense was that it was a productivity device. Still, people are using this thing as their smartphone. I really don’t think many people were looking to carry around a smartphone to take pictures with and a Surface Duo. So now, the Surface Duo 2 fixes those problems. It’s got a current-gen flagship chip, 5G, a proper camera, and even NFC. All of that comes in an even sexier package.

The Surface Duo 2 is Microsoft's flagship mobile device, and this time around it brings much faster hardware and some notable usability improvements. We'll have to wait to see how it plays out in a full review, but things are looking good this time around. The Surface Duo debuted just over a year ago, and was one of the most unique devices in a while, certainly the most adventurous we'd ever seen Microsoft be. But there were a number of issues that stopped the not-a-phone from reaching its true potential. The Surface Duo 2, then, is Microsoft's chance to take the concept to the masses with some much-needed improvements.

Microsoft:

Einige nicht anspruchsvolle aktuelle Spiele können mit geringen Details noch flüssig gespielt werden. Für Office und Video natürlich ausreichende Leistungsreserven.

Qualcomm Adreno 640: Grafikchip für Smartphones und Tablets, integriert im Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC. Laut Qualcomm um 20% schneller als die alte Adreno 630 im Snapdragon 845 und bietet 50% mehr ALUs (Recheneinheiten).

Diese Klasse ist noch durchaus fähig neueste Spiele flüssig darzustellen, nur nicht mehr mit allen Details und in hohen Auflösungen. Besonders anspruchsvolle Spiele laufen nur in minimalen Detailstufen, wodurch die grafische Qualität oft deutlich leidet. Diese Klasse ist nur noch für Gelegenheitsspieler empfehlenswert. Der Stromverbrauch von modernen Grafikkarten in dieser Klasse ist dafür geringer und erlaubt auch bessere Akkulaufzeiten.

Qualcomm Adreno 660: Grafikchip für Smartphones und Tablets, integriert im Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC. Laut Qualcomm um 35% schneller und um 20% effizienter als die alte Adreno 650 im Snapdragon 865.

» Weitere Informationen gibt es in unserem Notebook-Grafikkartenvergleich und der Benchmarkliste.

Qualcomm Snapdragon:

SD 855: High-End SoC (System on a Chip) für Smartphones welcher Ende 2018 vorgestellt wurde. Integriert unter anderen einen schnellen "Prime Core" mit bis zu 2,84 GHz und drei weitere schnelle Cortex-A76 basierende Performance-Kerne. Zum Stromsparen wurden außerdem 4 weitere ARM Cortex-A55 Kerne verbaut. Das integrierte X24 LTE Modem unterstützt 2 Gigabit Cat. 20 und weiters kann der Chip mit dem externen X50 5G Modem kombiniert werden.

SD 888 5G: High-End SoC (System on a Chip) für Smartphones welcher Ende 2020 vorgestellt wurde. Integriert unter anderen einen schnellen Cortex-X1 "Prime Core" mit bis zu 2,84 GHz und drei weitere schnelle Cortex-A78 basierende Performance-Kerne. Zum Stromsparen wurden außerdem 4 weitere ARM Cortex-A55 Kerne verbaut. Integriert ein 5G Modem, WiFi 6e und eine Hexagon 780 AI Engine mit bis zu 26 TOPS.

0.25 kg:

Most smartphones and only a few tablets fall into this weight category. Only a few smartphones are heavier and should rather be considered tablets.

0.284 kg:

67.35%: Diese Bewertung ist schlecht. Locker drei Viertel der Modelle werden besser beurteilt. Das ist eher keine Kaufempfehlung. Auch wenn Verbalbewertungen in diesem Bereich gar nicht so schlecht klingen ("genügend" oder "befriedigend"), meist sind es Euphemismen, die eine Klassifikation als unterdurchschnittliches Notebook verschleiern.
