  • Lead communications for Microsoft shows Surface Duo with case and stylus

    According to previous news, Microsoft will rush to release the Surface Duo dual-screen device before Samsung releases the Galaxy Fold 2 folding screen phone (August 5). Recently, lead communications for Microsoft, Frank X. Shaw warm up the upcoming Surface Duo.

    Frank X. Shaw posted a few photos of his own baked pastry on Twitter. The focus of the photo is not on the baking technology, it’s the Surface Duo that appears in the photo.

    The left screen of the Surface Duo in the photo is all the notebook pages of OneNote, and the right side is the recipe of the pastry that this executive is making. The application display logic of Surface Duo is similar to that of a traditional tablet computer.

    The most striking thing in the photo is not the Surface Duo body, but the Surface Pro X stylus similar to the Surface Duo, and there are traces of this pen on the Note page of the Surface Duo. Therefore, it can be seen that the Surface Duo supports a stylus.

    Microsoft did not say at the press conference last year whether the Surface Duo will support the stylus, but in view of this photo, I believe that Microsoft may bundle it with the stylus, but this will increase the price of the product, after all, there have been reports that the Surface Duo’s starting price will reach $1,000.

  • Microsoft brings stylus support to Windows 10 mail app

    Yesterday, we mentioned that Microsoft has canceled the focus inbox function of the attached mail application in the Windows 10 beta channel.

    Microsoft hasn’t released a note on the matter, but the development team has quickly launched a new version. This new version does not restore the focus of the inbox but brings stylus support.

    That is, you can use the stylus to write directly in the input area when sending or replying to emails, of course, emails sent to other users will not be presented with handwriting.

    When the user uses a stylus for input, the system will automatically convert it to plain text content, and then send the plain text content like an ordinary email.

    This is a good feature for Windows 10 tablets or devices with touch screens, and handwriting speed should be faster than touch keyboard input.

    Of course, this feature is currently being tested in the beta version of the email app. After the test is complete, Microsoft will release the new version to all users through the Microsoft Store.
