The next big moment for the Surface Duo family is likely to be the release of Android 12L and its increased support for both tablets and dual-screened devices. Until then, the Duo community is watching for regular software updates from Microsoft, especially as the Duo and Duo 2 are now matching each other in terms of software compatibility.

You could read the cadence of hardware sales as showing either one year or two years between models… the first Surface Duo was announced in October 2019 ahead of a September 2020 launch, while the Surface Duo 2 followed one year later with an October 2021 release. Is the Surface Duo 3 on the way? That’s a bit more difficult to answer. What it does tell us is Microsoft’s continued focus on the Duo is not limited to continued software development, but also on new hardware. Windows Central suggests the Duo 3 will be scrapped in favour of a book-style design similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 4, which could push the price even higher. But, remarkably, Microsoft has not given up on the Duo 2. Surface Duo 2 From 1,499/1,349 The Duo 3 landing around the same price seems the most likely, but that could all change if the redesign rumours turn out to be true. Of course, we’re looking at a patent here, with no guarantee that this will be seen on a commercial release. The Surface Duo 2 doesn’t really work well as a phone, but can be a very useful pocket computer. ![]()
