The Microsoft Surface Duo that was announced in October 2019 and launched in 2020 with Android 10 was supposed to get Android 11 in 2021, but that didn’t happen. However, the company hasn’t forgotten its foldable as the smartphone is finally receiving the Android 11 update.
The update comes with firmware version 2021.1027.156 and bumps up the Android security patch level on the Surface Duo to January 2022. It also comes with optimized Quick Settings, an updated app drawer and folder design, and an enhanced dual-screen experience for viewing and editing photos in the OneDrive app.
