Does anyone know what happened to the Surface Duo? (lemmy.zip)

Microsoft were pioneering the foldable phone trend, then after the Surface Duo 2, silently discontinued the lineup.

Of course it might be its awkward dual screen system, but that wouldn’t be the full story.

Anyone know (and is allowed to disclose) any further details on the demise of the Surface Duo?

Pretty much DOA due to bad software adaptation and a prohibitive price tag. The marketing department also missed the massive opportunity to market this as a DS emulator (likely due to concern over Nintendo lawsuits).
