Microsoft’s Surface Duo 2 gets one last update before its send-off --[Reported by Umva mag]

Microsoft just released the final security update to its Surface Duo 2 dual-screen smartphone, which comes right before support for the device officially ends October 21, reports Windows Central. The original Surface Duo was launched in September 2020 as an ambitious attempt by Microsoft to unite smartphone and tablet into one with an innovative foldable design. With its dual-screen technology and custom Android operating system, the Surface Duo was marketed as the ultimate productivity-on-the-go device. Its successor, the Surface Duo 2, was released in October 2021 to negative reception due to bugs, performance issues, limited software support, and a high price tag. (Our own review of it was hot-and-cold, some high highs and low lows.) All of that contributed to minimal adoption and trouble finding a wider audience. A year ago, Microsoft ended support for the original Surface Duo. With the end of support for the Surface Duo 2 looming ahead, the entire product line is poised to meet its end and join Microsoft’s other past mobile products, including the Windows Phone and Lumia.
