That makes a lot more sense than the cludgy folding screen designs of Samsung and others. I'd be very interested in something like that if it were the size of a Pixel XL but with 2 screens

Wow, like the concept, not sure how much my eyes are going to water when I see the price...

GoinAllTheWay · 10-03-2019, 11:39 AM

Damn Microsoft, that's not bad at all.

Genuinely surprised that's from MS....hopefully they don't find a way to mess it up.

Fuzz · 10-03-2019, 11:45 AM

Well they did, they made it to big!

GoinAllTheWay · 10-03-2019, 11:46 AM

Ya it's a hair large, isn't it?

And what was that fist device she was playing with?? Before pulling out the phone?

It doesn't look quite as oversized when seen live.

Ya, after seeing the specs (2 x 5.6") it probably suffers from the model in the video having really small hands. 5.6" isn't to bad. It just looks like a laptop in her teeny hands!

Microsoft has been killing it with the Surface lineup for years now, the only laptop manufacturer that rivals them in build quality is Apple. I wouldn't worry about it from a hardware perspective

For the Duo, it will need some sort of external notification for calls and or notifications. But looks very cool.

Neo looks cool too, would be great if it could dual boot Windows and Android.

I would like it a little smaller, but this is basically the phone I've been wanting for years. Give me a flip phone with two screens. It's not that fataing hard.

The hardware is solid, no doubt. I love my Surface. Just dislike a few of the software quirks in it. I'll be the first to admit they are minor though.

Will absolutely take a look at these new products when they come out, I'm extremely intrigued.

Same old same old from Google there.

Their phone division's motto should be "pay more, get less".

Galakanokis · 10-15-2019, 10:59 AM

Yeah, pretty underwhelming actually. They also pulled the free unlimited OCF storage as well which sucks.

btimbit · 10-15-2019, 11:17 AM

Yeah little underwhelmed, I did expect the price to be higher so there's that at least

Not sure I 100% agree this is Googles model, I mean Apple really owns it AFAIC.
It was a little underwhelming though..

I just purchased a Huawei P30 through Koodo. I still have time to back out. What should I know? Do I cancel my order? I use my phone for work, as well as, personal use. Please let me know your personal experience with this company. Obviously didn't do proper due diligence before diving in. Thanks

You can basically choose to ignore the politics involved, or not. It's a great phone otherwise, and the concern with Huawei is largely their high end infrastructure, not phones.

As far as I'm concerned there's no difference from how China can invade your privacy with a Huawei device than the US can with an Apple or Google device
