About this deal

That's a minor issue though, because the major issue is nighttime performance, and I'm not talking about the quality of photos. When you open up the Camera app at night, the frame rate in the viewfinder drops to a point where it actually gets hard to use. It's even harder to focus on the subject that you're trying to focus on. This is an area that I judge based on how many images I have to delete after testing. It was a lot for this phone.

MKV, MOV, MP4, H.265(HEVC), AVI, WMV, TS, 3GP, FLV, 3G2, AVI, FLV, TS/M2TS, MKV, WEBM, 3GP/MPEG-4,HEIC/HEIF,ASF/WMV, MOV We're also hearing that December's system update enables the rear button on the Slim Pen to automatically open OneNote. Whether you get value from the Surface Duo 2 Pen Cover depends on how much you use that Slim Pen. Microsoft is slowly but surely building out the usefulness of owning a pen into Surface Duo 2, which is good news. Microsoft just added inking to Outlook and now lets you "mark up" photos directly using the pen.Open:145.2 mm (H) x 184.5 mm (W) x 5.50mm (T)Closed :145.2 mm (H) x 92.1 mm (W) x 11.0 mm (T at hinge)Weight:284g Portrait mode with adjustable depth control. Portrait mode supported for wide and tele camera. Machine learning used for portrait mode

There is no protection for the rear of Surface Duo 2. That may seem like a flagrant omission, but it's not clear you could have both sides covered and still be able to reverse-fold the phone into one-handed mode. Stereo speaker, Dual Mic AI-based noise suppression and acoustic echo cancellation optimized for productive use in all postures I'm pleased to say that the camera is decent. However, it certainly won't be winning any awards. In daytime, it's pretty easy to get right, although it does weirdly try super hard to focus on the middle of the viewfinder. That's something that other OEMs worked out a while ago, that if your subject is not in the middle, it should still be focused on.

You work at BID, what a legend.

Surface Slim Pen 2 is not included with the cover either, so that users can buy it for extra protection. Microsoft could also release other colors later to help give a more custom feel to Surface Duo 2. Interestingly, it seems the pen won't charge if Surface Duo 2's battery is below 50%, which is an excellent way to prioritize the phone's longevity.

LTE Bands: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 46, 48, 66, 71That all makes the Pen Cover a bit of a kludge until Microsoft can figure out to build in wireless charging for the Slim Pen and wireless charging for the Surface Duo (in the rear) into one device without accessories. That's something we'll likely see in the next version, but it's a DIY add-on for now.
