As well as announcing expansion plans, Microsoft revealed that TikTok has released an “Enhanced” app for the dual-screen devices that will allow users to “optimise their experience es across two screens” For the uninitiated, the Microsoft Surface Duo is an Android-powered "communication device" that boasts two 5.6-inch displays split by a visible hinge. Unfolded, the Duo stretches to 8.3 inches – which is just larger than the iPad Mini 5 with its 7.9-inch display. Unlike other foldable devices, the Duo can be bent beyond a flat 180 degrees to a full 360 degrees, which allows a front-to-back glass experience. The device boasts mediocre specs elsewhere; you'll find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset, 6GB RAM and support for 4G networks only. For those of you in the US, the Surface Duo is on sale right now for $200 below its usual price. It can be picked up starting at $1,200 through the Microsoft Store and Best Buy.
