        If Intel can't produce a suitable chipset, What about the Ryzen Mobile series?
        I really want a full fledged Windows OS in a foldable body in my pocket.
        Was really excited for the Surface Duo, but now not so much.

Thats why you only sees good Microsoft made apps on Play Store, that's why you sees "Microsoft launcher" that's a more Android launcher than Pixel launcher, and thats why there is no in that launcher since of beginning, Live tiles. So, no wonder why device with Microsoft branding runs on Android os, iOS is restricted for Microsoft, and those beta fails in a shape of Windows 10 mobile os, is still there. Also, now rhey even son't have Zeiss, no Pureview, so photo quality is worse than on 1020 Lumia from 7 years ago.

            It was burned by MS mobile products in the past and many people as well, so most likely this Surface will pass unnoticed.

                and like always, Microsoft is late to the game."

                Where's Apple's dual-screen device ? Precisely. And when Apple eventually release their i F o l d in 2022, after having several years of d r o o l i n g over its competition (Samsung Galaxy Fold, Microsoft Duo, Royale Flexpai, etc), the i S h e e p l e will herald the wizardry of T i m C o o k et al. as awesomely astonishing, with the i S h e e p l e adamant that Apple invented the foldable dual-display device first.

                    I am of the opinion that should the Surface Duo become a raving hit, I am hopeful that a second iteration of Surface Duo may well have an additional Windows model, on the proviso that WCOS has reached RTM.

I see this same perspective that they are not going to sell a butt load of these, and I can only think that they are doing this to usher in or bring users to their OG surface devices soon. More like a tactic or device used tactically. Sure they will prove they can do it which is an accomplishment from the Surface team alone, but I honestly believe they should be focusing more on their own HW for their Own OS rather then enter another market again.

                        Dual screens are not practical. Give me a proper windows tablet like the iPad. Come on. I don't want Windows in S mode or whatever.

                          Perhaps five years ago that design would be a thing. Today it is not even out and looks dated.

                            It's just a skinned version of Android.

                                Finally a new, interesting piece of hardware. Looking forward to this.

                                Samsung take note - you could actually learn something here. Stop making g*arbage tech and stop scamming your customers by lying to them or giving them highly inferior chips.

                                  It is strange for me to accentuate on the camera instead on the ways and advantages of usage of such type of device.
                                  Me personally do not understand for what kind of activities it is suitable. For sure they do not expect to crush the market with this thing, it is just an expensive toy.

This is what's stifling innovation and individuality, and causing the phone market to become tired and unexciting. Why bother purchasing a new phone, when the current one is only marginally different than the shiny new one being offered (usually) at an extortionately inflated price, but looks almost the same, just slightly updated.

                                      There 'are' some people that actually want something different than what the herd mentality masses are accustomed to, that fits their USP, how they use them, and what they use them for. That are bored with all the same old, same olds being released year after year, and want something they can actually use. You stick with your generic glass slabs, and let the others have what they want (and need) too.
