Microsoft were pioneering the foldable phone trend, then after the Surface Duo 2, silently discontinued the lineup.
Of course it might be its awkward dual screen system, but that wouldn’t be the full story.
Anyone know (and is allowed to disclose) any further details on the demise of the Surface Duo?

It’s because being “first” to market only matters if you do the work to cross the bare minimum threshold for people to want your product. If your software is shit (like pretty much everything Microsoft does; their PC share is leaning massively on inertia), you’re not going to create a market. Insufficient hardware can also be an issue, but it’s usually not Microsoft’s.
