Leak: Microsoft Surface Duo specifications

they got too much money that they want to get back into cellphones again? maybe a new guy who wants to make a mark in the world.
last time the windows phone cost them quite a bit...
I liked the last windows phone I had, but will probly not change soon
 
Assuming you have to actually open it to make calls etc. it's a bit of a stretch for them to call this a smartphone. Mini tablet, sure.

MS obviously will keep trying with the smartphone industry, they have the R&D budget to spend for it and they only need one major success to truly cement them in place for a while, plus they make most of their money from services. If they can sell this product at cost, and then get a good integration with their services, they can use it as a halo product to show how it's supposed to be done, think of e.g. the Nexus line, and up until recently the Pixel line, those are supposed to show off Google Services (including what Android can do as it ties in with Google Play, Gmail, etc., even Google Assistant probably doesn't make them much/any money, it just ties you into the Google Ecosystem).
