On its third birthday, the original Surface Duo is no longer supported by Microsoft.

    According to the article, it launched with android 10. So, just android 11 and android 12L. Giving an android 13 update was the least they could’ve done, considering android 14 is around the corner. Oh, well. Do not buy products from companies that do not guarantee to provide one.

        Exactly! We need companies like fairphone, which not only provide long software support but also years of warranty where the device can actually last.

    Well… this is not cool. On the other hand, it was clearly an experimental product. Do not think people purchased it expected a mainstream like support.

      I can hardly find a company that supports their product and their backward compatibility longer than ms. Just recently read that wordpad had an alias “writer” (or similar) because this was its name before decades ago and there could be apps/scripts relying using this nsme.

        There’s still some way of accessing a network settings menu unchanged from Windows 3, I remember Tom Scott did it

    I was really hoping for the Duo to succeed and be iterated upon. It fascinated me and seemed like it would be useful for taking notes at work, provided I ever RTO. Oh, well.
