The Surface Duo series has struggled in the market between its high prices (up to $1,500), unreliable software and performance that frequently trails the latest Android flagships. We've asked Microsoft for comment and will let you know if we hear back. A software initiative, "Perfect Together," would also provide tighter integration between Surface phones and Windows, much like the iPhone's close ties to the Mac. It's apparently "exploring" other form factors, including prototypes of more conventional smartphones. The purported insiders also say Microsoft is planning to expand its Android phone offerings. Microsoft isn't said to have settled on a release window for the foldable, suggesting that the product is unlikely to arrive in 2023. It would have supposedly addressed some of its predecessor's shortcomings with narrower edge-to-edge screens and wireless charging. The cancelled Surface Duo 3 was "finalized," according to the sources. The new device's specs and name aren't known, but it would have a 180-degree hinge with an outside cover display akin to the Vivo X Fold.
Windows Central sources claim Microsoft has cancelled a twin-screen Surface Duo 3, which was reportedly slated for release late this year, and will instead focus on a "true" foldable phone. Microsoft's dual-screen Android phones have been less than successful, to put it mildly, and there are now hints the company is shaking up its mobile strategy.
