This week on The Verge’s Friday episode of The Vergecast, Wired senior writer and Verge alum Lauren Goode stops by to examine her new podcast Get Wired and stays to chat tech and gizmos with her Verge colleagues Nilay Patel and Dieter Bohn.
On this episode, we are one particular move nearer to reviewing Microsoft’s prolonged-awaited Floor Duo.
Close to 29 minutes into the display, Dieter reveals he bought his fingers on Microsoft’s dual display smartphone, but can only converse on the capabilities of the system with the display screen off — so hardware only — until eventually the official launch of the merchandise.
Dieter discusses how the solution feels in-hand, the sturdiness and top quality of the glass human body, the benefits and disadvantages of the folding layout, and other preliminary impressions of the sort component.
Nevertheless I have centered this short article around that distinct segment, there was a entire good deal a lot more mentioned in this episode — like Amazon’s weird new conditioning tracker, an critical update on TikTok’s US options, and a grab bag of more experimental smartphone design and style — so listen as a result of the complete exhibit to hear it all.
If you are interested in our previous discussions about the Surface Duo, pay attention to our discussion with Microsoft’s main products officer Panos Panay on the day he introduced the product or service last year.
