One of the stars of Microsoft’s hardware event today is the new Surface Duo 2. As the name implies, this is the second generation of the American company’s folding smartphone with the Android operating system.

This Surface Duo 2 represents a great leap in quality compared to the original model. On paper, this is an Android smartphone with a lot of what you can ask for from a current high-end, with the irreverence of having two screens to perform all tasks.

The Surface Duo 2 philosophy has not changed compared to the model that precedes it. In fact, we have a smartphone made up of two screens that close over each other in book style.

On the outside, the Surface Duo 2 is built in glass that curves slightly on the sides for a better fusion with its metallic structure. It’s a little more robust, now with a thickness of 5.5mm, to try to bridge the cracks felt on the original model near the USB-C port.

Inside, we have two AMOLED technology screens, both with a diagonal of 5.8 inches, resolution1499 x 1344 pixels and a refresh rate of 23 Hz. Combined, users will enjoy a 8.3-inch panel with a resolution of 2688 x 1499 pixels.

Note that both displays have a slight curvature at their inner edge. This feature allows that, when closed, the Surface Duo 2 provides a sort of notification bar, where the user can view them without having to open the smartphone.
