Microsoft releases Surface Duo press video with 30 minutes of demos


Microsoft has released a full 35-minute Surface Duo press release video that it previously held with these journalists. Microsoft typically holds in-person events for its Surface products, and this year’s press release was essentially a virtual version of a Surface event.

Panos Panay, Microsoft’s Windows and Devices chief of Microsoft, discusses everything from how the company built the Surface Duo to the tech inside and much more. It’s probably the best demonstration of Microsoft’s Android phone to date. Microsoft even posted some unannounced colorful Surface Duo bumper cases at one point in the demo.

Microsoft announced the Surface Duo, a dual-screen Android phone, earlier this week. Priced at $ 1,399, the Surface Duo will go on sale in the US on September 10th. Microsoft hopes that this new form factor will transform and introduce mobile productivity into a new era of dual-screen and foldable devices.
