I’m just so disappointed that Microsoft dropped the ball once again in the phone space. With no hardware on the horizon and disappointing software support for existing users, why should I stick with the Duo 2 when the Pixel Fold is able to mimic 90% of it but better? Microsoft’s lack of feature updates (and seeming abandonment of the device from an app-development perspective) is adding insult to injury at this point. This benefits video consumption and most Android apps that never updated to correctly support spanning on Surface Duo, but operate fine on a larger folding screen (looking at you, Gmail.)Īnd that’s ultimately the reason why I’m dropping the Surface Duo 2 for the Pixel Fold when it starts shipping next month.
The only thing you’re not going to get is that automatic multitasking experience, as the Pixel Fold (and Galaxy Fold) require user input to run two apps side by side.īut, frankly, that’s a small price to pay for an up-to-date phone with excellent cameras that’s still pretty great at multitasking, with the added benefit of not having a gap running down the middle.
Now, I’m actually not against Microsoft moving away from dual screens like some die-hard Surface Duo users might be because the dual-screen experience can (for the most part) be emulated across a single-foldable screen.
Drag and drop between two apps on Pixel Fold.
