The Surface Duo was announced last October and marked Microsoft’s highly anticipated return to the smartphone market. Only this time the company closes Windows for Android and has the product fit with two monitors.
The screens are combined with thick top and bottom rings, as well as relatively thin sides by tablet standards. They connect is a 360 degree metal hinge that can be closely observed in one of the images.
Microsoft has not yet confirmed what accessories will be shipped with the Surface Duo, but the leaked press images suggest that a specially designed bumper case will be included in the box. That will accompany a power adapter and USB-C to USB-C cable.
As already announced last year, the style of Surface Pen is compatible with the Surface Duo. One of the images also points to compatibility with the Surface Buds wireless headphones, which is not very surprising.
