Microsoft Surface Duo Survives the JerryRigEverything Endurance Trial

The presence of the Microsoft Surface Duo smartphone, which comes with a unique concept, has attracted many people to buy it. Because Microsoft has succeeded in presenting an Android smartphone with a thickness that is arguably very thin.

Of course, many people are curious about the durability of this smartphone so that it will be safe when used as a daily driver. This was also done by a famous technology YouTuber named JerryRigEverything .

Through his latest video, JerryRigEverything also tries to test the durability of the Microsoft Surface Duo with several tests starting from the durability of the screen, body, and overall device.

However, because it has a very thin thickness, many people are worried that this smartphone will break easily when JerryRigEverything is going to do a ‘Bend Test’ or flexibility test.

In the video, you can see that the Microsoft Surface Duo smartphone managed to survive the trial even though the shape of the smartphone was quite bent due to the great pressure. However, the screen of the smartphone has no problem and is still usable.

Of course, the thing that makes this smartphone survive this flexibility test is because of the hinge system from Microsoft that is not easily damaged. This proves that Microsoft has succeeded in presenting a thin smartphone that is also sturdy.

But JerryRigEverything regretted that this smartphone had to come with a plastic body. The reason is that the smartphone is sold at a price of $1400 which is arguably very expensive.

Xiaomi Mi 12 and Huawei Mate 50 Pro are flagships that are to get LTPO screens. Thanks to this, they will provide a variable refresh. We will not see them soon, however.

We already know LTPO screens from Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and S21 Ultra models. They provide a variable refresh range up to 120 Hz. Xiaomi Mi 12 and Huawei Mate 50 Pro will also provide such possibilities thanks to this technology. This will translate into lower energy requirements, and therefore longer battery life.

Ross Young, who passed on these rumors about the Xiaomi Mi 12 and Huawei Mate 50 Pro, also lists other smartphones. Among them are Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 or Oppo Find X3. Of course, we also expect this solution in the iPhone 13 Pro models. Apple also plans to finally reach for LTPO screens this year.
