Three years after launching the device with a premium price tag of $1,499, Microsoft has released what appears to be the last ever security update for the device: as with the original Duo last year, Microsoft is ending all support and software updates three years from the device's launch. For the Duo 2, all support will end on 21 October 2024.

Microsoft has released a final software update for the Surface Duo 2 foldable smartphone as its end of life nears on October 21.

Microsoft's choice to end support for the second-gen Surface Duo fits into its larger plan to slim down its Surface device lineup.

Pour one out for the Surface Duo 2. As Windows Central points out, Microsoft has pushed out what will almost certainly go down as the device’s final software update, a security patch, ahead of its October 21 end-of-support date.
