Does Surface Duo have a camera?

One big question over the Surface Duo has been the camera. Microsoft is using an 11-megapixel f/2.0 camera, which will include auto modes for low light, HDR multi-frame captures, and a “super zoom” up to 7x. Both 4K and 1080p video recording will be supported at 30fps and 60fps, with electronic image stabilization. There’s only a single camera on the Surface Duo, which can be used both for video calls and as a main camera. – https://www.theverge.com/2020/8/12/21364633/microsoft-surface-duo-release-date-pricing-features-specs

What is Microsoft Surface Neo?

The Microsoft Surface Neo is also a foldable device, with two tablets, connected by a hinge, basically folding open like a book for a two-screen setup. It also will have a new operating system in the form of Windows 10x, which takes Microsoft’s OS and customizes it for a dual-screen setup. – https://www.techradar.com/news/microsoft-surface-neo-release-date-news-and-rumors

What are Other Foldable Phones Available?

Comparing Samsung’s recently announced Galaxy Fold 2, the Galaxy Z Flip and last year’s Motorola Razr reboot, the Surface Duo’s hinge is the key difference, bringing together two 5.6-inch screens instead of relying on one massive display that can be folded. – https://www.cnet.com/how-to/microsoft-unveils-surface-duo-price-release-september-10-preorder/
