Android or Windows? That is the ultimate question, and the answer may surprise you. It's both.
Last week, Microsoft unveiled two new foldable devices that are expected to start shipping at the end of next year, which push forward Surface as a brand into new categories. One sticking point amongst fans, however, has been the decision to use Windows on the bigger Surface Neo and Android on the smartphone-sized Surface Duo. Some people don't understand why Microsoft has chosen two different OS's for these devices, and I continue to receive these kinds of questions on Twitter.

Full story from the WindowsCentral blog...
 
The Surface Duo must run Windows 10X, or I won't even remotely consider buying it. If I want Android, I will buy an LG, Samsung, Sony or Asus phone. This is such a slap and spit in the face to Windows Phone users. 😑
