Microsoft hasn’t specified how big the battery is, but it claims the usual line of “all day battery life.” The Surface Duo 2 has a triple rear camera system. Other hardware upgrades include NFC but no wireless charging, two things that were annoyingly omitted from the first Duo. Paired with the processor is 8GB of RAM (2GB more than the first gen) and between 128GB and 512GB of storage. Microsoft says it’s the thinnest 5G device on the market.

It also supports 5G connectivity, another upgrade from the 4G radio that was in the first Duo. Inside one half of the device is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor - a significant upgrade over the 855 chip that was in the first version. The screens have a slight curve that lets them be visible when the Duo 2 is closed - Microsoft is using it as a notification panel. A slight curve on the screen allows it to be viewed when the Duo 2 is closed, showing you time and missed notifications. Combined, the two Duo 2 displays measure 8.3 inches diagonally and both of them feature a faster 90Hz refresh rate. It’s a markedly different approach from what Samsung is doing with its folding phones, which have a single large screen that gets folded in half. The Surface Duo 2, which is available in the same white color as the first-gen plus a new black option, has two 5.8-inch, 1344 x 1892 OLED displays connected by a hinge that allows you to open it like a book or prop it up like a tent. Microsoft says the Duo 2 will be available starting on October 21st for $1,499.99.
This time around, Microsoft is putting a legit camera on it, supporting 5G, using a current processor, and is throwing in bigger screens - things that are all quite nice to have on expensive phones. The Duo 2 retains the head-turning design of the first-generation model, but it specifically addresses many of the complaints we had. Microsoft has officially announced the new Surface Duo 2, its second attempt at an Android-powered folding phone.
