Back with a bang! (of a price tag)

The Android-powered Surface Duo starts at US$1,399 and will be available Sept 10, said Microsoft chief product officer Panos Panay. The device will be sold on Microsoft.com as well as by AT&T Inc and Best Buy Co. It claims to be the thinnest Surface ever, with screens that unfold completely to serve as a phone or act like a book to provide more space for different apps.

“The product was built as the Microsoft you love and the Android you know,” Panay said. The gadget’s OLED displays measure 5.6in individually or 8.1in taken as a whole, with Microsoft promising “all-day battery life”. It’ll have either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage, 6GB of memory, a Snapdragon 855 processor from Qualcomm Inc, and will work on the wireless networks of Verizon Communications Inc, AT&T and T-Mobile US Inc.

Microsoft’s hinge-and-two-screen approach is less futuristic than devices from the likes of Samsung Electronics Co with a single screen that folds in the middle. To make it work, the Duo has 56 cables connecting the two screens with the batteries and mainboard split between the two halves.
