TheSurface Duo’s hardware is gorgeous.
But this was an Android rig.
One thing users of Microsoft products often enjoy though is being part of that development process.

Huawei devices getting Bing AI functionality in SwiftKey whilst MIA on Surface Duo
I followed the development and lifespan of Surface Duo aggressively, though.
Surface Duo abandoned
The support for the Surface Duo and its sibling has just been abysmal.
Yes Huawei, who haven’t been able to make phones running the Google Play Store for years.

SwiftKey has the new Bing AI features now basically everywhere except Microsoft’s own hardware.
