Microsoft ends support for the Surface Duo 2 on October 21st with an Android version update and a security update.
The Surface Duo 2 was a huge improvement over the original Surface Duo model. First, the two screens were increased to 5.8 inches from 5.6 inches which increased the size of the two screens combined to a huge 8.3 inches. It felt that Microsoft was less rushed designing the sequel which was powered by the Snapdragon 888 application processor (AP), a more modern chipset at the time than the Snapdragon 855 AP which was two years old when found under the hood of the OG Surface Duo model.
Another big change to the sequel thanks to the use of what was then Qualcomm’s latest flagship AP was the Surface Duo 2’s ability to support 5G. When the first Surface Duo model was released, the device had only one 11MP camera on the back.
