In spite of everything else leaking out at this morning’s Surface event, Microsoft was still able to save one big surprise for the end. The company’s getting back into phones. Not only that, it’s introducing a foldable. Though, as with the Neo, the Duo doesn’t actually have a foldable display like the Galaxy Fold. Instead, it’s two connected displays, more akin to the ZTE Axon M.

That means there’s a bit of a gap between the two devices, meaning, there’s a limitation on all of the “flow” the company discussed at this morning’s event. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. It just means a different experience. Unlike, say, the Galaxy Fold, the second screen is designed for things like typing and control, rather than, say, a larger movie experience.
