What you need to know
Just as we’retalking aboutMicrosoft hitting its stride with updates to theSurface Duo 2(and how it’s pretty good now), here comes the March 2022 update.
Unfortunately, according to the changelog, there is not much going on in this update. Thechangelognotes that it only includes the March Security Patch, even though the update is still 219 MB (last month’s “big” update with new drivers was 273 MB, for comparison).
The OS version jumps from 2022.104.111 to 2022.111.64, and we’ll have to poke around to see if there are any other changes (or under the hood improvements for Microsoft’s own apps).
To be fair, Microsoft did push out three big OS updates for Surface Duo 2 inDecember,January, andFebruary, with new features, drivers, and many improvements. Taking a month off and letting the dust settle could be warranted.
Microsoft will likely light up some other experiences on Surface Duo 2, but there is no ETA on those, although we talk about them in ourlatest video.
No word on an update for Surface Duo 1, although it is likely to arrive in the coming days, if not sooner.
