Microsoft Surface Duo phone

For a slab, this looks like it will be the best productivity work horse out there. Especially if you use MS programs, which most companies do.

It's pretty thin though, I question battery life. And $1400 isn't cheap.

What problems have you had? We've had an OG (still going), a 2 (sold), a 3 (sold), two 4's (one sold, one still going), and a 6, and haven't had any issues. The OG Surface Pro I have is now the computer that runs my CNC.

Last year specs at this year’s price seems like a winning formula.

There's more to the device than just the specs. The build quality stands out. People that had a hand on are impressed by the build quality.

Some Bestbuy has a demo kiosk setup today. Go check it out if you're in the US.

I don’t need to fly to US especially for a product I don’t care about.
