Microsoft has announced that its new Surface Duo, a folding device with two displays and a 360-degree hinge, is now available for purchase.

Surface innovation comes to a dual-screen mobile device, featuring the best of Microsoft 365, every Android app in the Google Play store, phone calls, and more.

The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor. It has 6GB of DRAM, an 11MP f/2.0 camera, Bluetooth 5.0, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, USB-C 3.1, and a 3577mAh battery. Surface Duo opens to reveal two PixelSense Fusion Displays that create one 8.1-inch display area. A 360-degree hinge lets you use each screen individually or both together.

"Join a Microsoft Teams meeting and see participants on one screen while you present your PowerPoint slides on another. Open the Amazon Kindle app and read a book like a book. Position Surface Duo’s screen like a tent and watch a video hands-free. Use Surface Duo in Compose mode to quickly respond to an email, or tilt it into portrait for a more immersive way to scroll through web pages or photos. Pair your Surface Duo with a supported Bluetooth controller to play games on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or with Surface Earbuds, coming Sept. 10 in Graphite Grey, to listen to your favorite playlist or podcast. Or easily take notes with the Surface Slim Pen, sold separately."
