Apple: Every one else does folding wrong!

Also Apple: We've done it the exact way Samsung and Microsoft did it! We even used the same Duo name as Microsoft!

This comic from 14 years ago remains evergreen https://hijinksensue.com/comic/surface-tension/

Samsung had 7 generations of the wrong way, then one of the right way after they learned what Apple was doing. Microsoft literally does not have a product like this.

>Microsoft literally does not have a product like this.

Well yes their product like this is so old its already been discontinued. The Surface Duo targeted the same unfolded layout / passport sized folded device the iPhone Duo is, but opted for different folding methods and screen solutions.

Microsoft had one with a different folding method and screen, but it was equivalent to a product in which the key differentiators are the folding method and screen?
