Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 12:54am On Apr 29, 2021 |
Is anyone else using the Microsoft surface duo?... ![]() Microsoft and Google, collaborated to build this device.... What a beautiful tool, multitasking taking to another level, on a mobile device or phablet or mini laptop..... What exactly is this device?..... ![]() For all you camera hunting people, this device is not for you..... It's got just one very small camera module, good for business video calls and I would also say, for taking pictures also.......... ![]() It's a dual sim device (esim and nano sim), but in a weird implementation ..... Device is only got one IMEI number, so only one aim can go live.... You can install 2 sims, but the other would be hibernated, till you switch off the other...... 1 Like |

I toyed with it some months back. A really solid device tho I'm not a fan of the design. The camera is very decent as well . The dual screen is dope too but it just felt weird |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 1:02am On Apr 29, 2021 |
Chuksteric: Indeed, it feels weird till you get used to the prowess of this machine..... Running two apps simultaneously, on two different screens, on the same device...... Is bliss...... ![]() 1 Like |

Microsoft surface duo, have simply flipped the script on the foldable form factor/sector ........ A few manageable bugs here and there, but nothing unbearable....... ![]() 1 Like |

Lexusgs430: Thank you for appreciating AIO Launcher. A remarkable but sadly underappreciated launcher. I've not used a surface duo cos i don't have room for it but i guess i may find out in future what all the fuss is about |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 10:46am On May 06, 2021 |
abdsamad: AIO is a very simplistic launcher........ The surface duo truly deserves all the attention/accolades....... ![]() |

NO LIES MHEN!!! Those "Youtubers" , are talking about a different device. |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 2:36pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: You said it all. very top notch device! I can never go back . ![]() |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 2:38pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: I hear ,only the stock launcher is stable , others introduce bugs on battery drains . ![]() ![]() |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 6:03pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
dabosuker: Those youtubers, simply slated the duo...... I always knew, subsequent updates would transform the device, to the true monster, it truly is....... ![]() 1 Like |

dabosuker: Who buys a Microsoft surface duo, simply because of the camera?..... ![]() It's a true productivity device (with no fear of it cracking in the middle, like the Samsung fold devices).... 1 Like |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 6:07pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
dabosuker: I am back to stock launcher, developers have not caught on with the real dual screen concept........ |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 8:13am On Jul 16, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: Productivity at its best . So easy , to remain in flow. For now my only issue or fear, is the fragile USB C Port, exactly 1 week with this device and i am being extremely careful with the port. Last night i finally attached one of those Magsafe adapters , most people say they have been able to preserve their charging port using that. Hopefully it preserves mine too. ![]() Apart from that , I think the Duo is fantastic , the bugs are not that irritating as those youtubers make them seem, & once you get to learn how to use the device (e.g flipping the device to use camera) , it becomes smooth . |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 8:17am On Jul 16, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: Yeah, developers need to start taking advantage of this new form factor. Damn! just look at that Kindle app ![]() |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 8:27am On Jul 16, 2021 |
dabosuker: That magnetic advice, is probably one of the things, those youtube liars, spoke the truth about......... Before my duo arrived, I already bought the magnetic charger....... From day one, the type c magnetic bit, sleeps, eats and rests in that slot........ It's never been removed........ ![]() 1 Like |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 8:29am On Jul 16, 2021 |
dabosuker: I hope you are also aware that, it's also a dual sim device (esim and nano)....... But you can only use one at a time...... Whilst one is live, the other is turned off..... |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 8:51am On Jul 16, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: Great then , I am in order . ![]() |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by dabosuker(m): 8:53am On Jul 16, 2021 |
Lexusgs430: Yeah , but i just have a nano sim in it. Don't really know how to go about activating the esim component ? which i assume , would be "network dependent "? ![]() |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 8:56am On Jul 16, 2021 |
dabosuker: If you have 2 numbers, that are in nano format. Get your network provider convert one to esim or get a new esim package...... All you need to do with the esim, is use your camera to download sim to device, follow prompts and esim gets activated........ |

Lexusgs430: Nice one. ![]() I opted for the "oval shaped" one though, plus , i have my bumpers on . |
Re: Let's Discuss Microsoft Surface Duo by Lexusgs430: 9:10am On Jul 16, 2021 |
dabosuker: Once you put in pocket and remove too many times, the glue strips on the bumpers, starts to peel off........ So I got a cheap case from AliExpress......... ![]() 1 Like |

Lexusgs430: Yeah, can't put it in conventional pockets. I thinking of getting a sleeve. That's why I always tell pple that ask, "This is not a Phone" ![]() Using those after market cases, makes one loose "Phone mode" ![]() For fear of fall, I am sticking with the bumpers, plus I got one of those cool skins from Sopiguard ![]()
