Back in May 2021, we had reported on the Microsoft Surface Duo seeing a major price slash, with the new sale offering a 50 percent discount on the dual display device. Now, the price has been lowered again, with Surface Duo being available for a nearly 1000 US Dollars discount.
According to an ArsTechnica report, the American tech giant’s first self branded Android smartphone is now available for 71 percent off. While the device was touted to be the company’s innovative entry to the Android market, the dual display smartphone was unfortunately not a hit in the market. The handset faced plenty of criticism and lackluster sales, making it a flop, which caused the company to lower its price tag multiple times.
Now, Amazon’s Woot is selling the Surface Duo for just 409 US Dollars. This marks a whopping 990.99 US Dollars discount of the original price tag of 1399.99 US Dollars. Although, this listing is only for the AT&T locked model of the device. The Surface Duo had initially launched in September 2020, but saw a sharp 200 US Dollar price slash in just a month after its launch. Moving seven months forward, the price had fallen even lower by 50 percent.
The smartphone failed in the market for various reasons, which includes its awkward form factor, along with a buggy software, exorbitant pricing, and other issues. It was powered by an aging Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC with two 5.6 inch displays that has a 4:3 aspect ratio. For 400 US Dollars, the device might be an interesting pick for smartphone enthusiasts, although, it would likely see no success even with this relatively affordable pricing.
