Asian Tech Press (Sep 23) -- Microsoft Corp (MSFT:NASDAQ) officially unveiled the new Surface Duo 2 on Wednesday, its second attempt at a dual-screen folding Android phone.

The Surface Duo 2 retains the stunning design of the first-generation model Surface Duo, with two 5.8-inch, 1344 x 1892 OLED displays.

This time, Microsoft has equipped the new model with a mainstream camera, an updated Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor, backed by 5G networks, and added a larger screen. And the company says it's the thinnest 5G device on the market.

Microsoft announced that the Surface Duo 2 will go on sale on October 5 for $1,499.99.
