Microsoft reportedly nixes the Surface Duo 3 and will build a foldable phone instead

The report adds that Microsoft had already decided on the design for a dual-screen Surface Duo 3. Penciled in to ship at the end of this year, the Surface Duo 3 was to include support for wireless charging with taller and narrower edge-to-edge displays. Windows Central’s sources say that there is no time frame set to ship the new foldable phone which means it is unlikely to be released this year.

Users who prefer the form factor of the Surface Duo will apparently be forced to pick up a previously owned Surface Duo or Surface Duo 2 unit. However, there is always the possibility that Microsoft will resort to using some software magic to simulate the experience of using a dual-screen phone even on a foldable display.
