Surface Duo 2 is simply the most beautiful bit of mobile technology I have ever set eyes on. It’s a convenience and multitasking experience that once you get used to is hard to let go of. The original Duo only came in a white (Glacier), but the Duo 2 adds another colour option of black (called Obsidian) which is also stunning.Īs I said in the intro, having two screens available to you (once you get used to it) will leave you wondering how you ever made do with just one before. It is a work of art, the Picasso of devices, and you just want to touch it and use it. The original Surface Duo was released in 2020 and whilst a thing of beauty (it looked gorgeous, was pretty responsive and a real “wow piece”, it lacked (for most) some key things such as NFC, and decent cameras which stopped me for replacing my daily driver (a Samsung S20) for the Duo. The Duo certainly get’s attention and is simply an awesome blend of Surface and Android then this device is worth every penny or cent. IMO, having two screens available will (once you get used to it) leave you wondering how you ever made do with just one before.

Whilst a Dual Screen may not be for everyone, it’s different and is great once you to adapt to it. Before I drive into the formal review, I’d like to summarise by saying that Surface Duo 2, whilst very much similar and samey is much better and more refined better than the original Duo. Santa was kind this year and allowed me to get my hands on a Surface Duo 2.
