Surface Duo is the company’s first dual-screen device that runs Android with two identical 1080p PixelSense AMOLED displays. When closed, Surface Duo presents a 5.6-inch display, and you can increase the screen real estate by opening the two panels flat to get a large tablet-sized 8.1-inch display.

It packs 6GB of RAM, 128/256GB of internal storage, and a 3577mAh battery charged at 18W via USB Type C.

Surface Duo was first announced in October 2019 and is currently available in the US, retailing at $1399 ~ Ksh 156,000 based on today’s exchange rate – for the 6GB/128GB storage configuration.

The company pitched the device as a way to help enhance productivity by enabling you to multitask effectively on a mobile device.

“With Surface Duo, we set out to unlock new levels of mobile productivity and reduce the need to reach for a larger screen to complete quick productivity tasks,” the company says.
