Microsoft Surface Duo leak reveals every detail - here's your best look

Microsoft has yet to provide any additional updates on its upcoming Surface Duo handset, but fortunately, various leaks continue to keep up the hype surrounding the upcoming foldable device, from a tepid teaser from the VP of Android to a recent report that claims we could see the phone as early as August following a recent tipster claiming we could see the handset as early as August 24, rumors continue to swirl about what to expect from the Surface Duo

And now a series of lifelike renderings have given us something concrete to examine in detail Leeker Panda (@samsungbloat) posted a series of allegedly official images of the Surface Duo on Twitter, showing off various views of the device, as well as some special accessories that could come along with Microsoft's foldable

The pictures do not reveal much new about the Surface Duo's design There are relatively large bezels on the top and sides of the screen, but the sides are much thinner They are connected by a metal hinge, which can be seen in one of the close-up images

Additionally, the leaked photos show a stylus that is said to be included with the Surface Duo There is also a dedicated bumper case, charger, and USB Type-C cable; when viewed with the Surface Duo partially closed, it looks a bit reminiscent of the Nintendo DSi

As for what to expect from the device's software, Microsoft has already confirmed that the Surface Duo will be an Android 10 device It will no doubt rely heavily on Microsoft's suite of apps The images that have been developed seem to confirm this, and we can easily see the home screen

Panda also tweeted the potential price of the Surface Duo, claiming that it will start at $1,400 in the US That means it would be more expensive than the LTE version of the Galaxy Z Flip, although it could be less than the $1,499 Motorola Razr Microsoft has yet to comment on potential pricing information for the Surface Duo, but it could be announced in the next week or so

As Microsoft previously detailed, the Surface Duo will feature two 56-inch AMOLED 1800 x 1350 displays to aid multitasking The device, which was revealed last year, ran on a Snapdragon 855 Leaked specs suggest it will have 6GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage While these specs do not place the Surface Duo on par with smartphones like the Galaxy Note 20 (with the Snapdragon 865 Plus chip), the upcoming foldable device will offer smooth navigation between the two screens, which should be able to establish a unique position in terms of providing smooth navigation between the two screens

These leaked images give us a nice look at what could be coming, but as always, we'll have to wait for Microsoft to provide the final word on what's around the corner for the Surface Duo It should be a very interesting show to see the Duo and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, which is expected to be revealed in full on September 1
