- Welcome back, to the tech kingdom! 🔧✨ In today's video, we embark on a unique journey as we dive into the fascinating world of the Microsoft Surface Duo. Released in 2020 as a foldable dual-screen device running Android, we're about to shake things up by installing Windows 11 on this innovative piece of tech. Also since the Surface Duo 3 has been canceled and the Surface Neo we might as well mod the old Surface Duo.

Haha, this is crazy. I have a duo, and out of sheer curiosity, I thought to look if anyone was crazy enou6to try to make it run win 11. And of course, there you were, being awesome.
Thank you very much :) Since I filmed that video the driver situation has gotten better as well. They are currently working on fixing audio
Awesome! Have my a sub good sir! Und vielleicht machst du falls die Updates es sich lohnen noch ein weiteres Vid zum Thema@@TechKingdom35
is Android phone
@@Thinev yes.
@rangaaravinda6785 Yes, it is an android phone
This is the third video of yours that I'm watching.
You completely got me with the Explaining Installation Any% hahaha
Subscribed!
Thank you very much. Comments like this really make my day :) Hope you will enjoy my future videos.
Man these are the kind of homebrew tech stuff i like. Nice
Same :) More to come
Still loving the dual display solution a lot. I used to be in the foldable bandwagon before, so I can easily vouch that I never missed it and have zero intention of going back to it ever again.
Also, come to think about it, this could be the mini Surface Neo/Yoga Book 9i.
Oh yeah, the dual display situation is cool, and the glass screens are definitely an advantage in comparison to the plastic ones of traditional foldables. But the daily usability of something like a Z Fold is just way higher. I also want to turn this duo into a surface neo of sorts in a future video :)
I’d be interested in seeing how this performs with PCSX2 emulator in contrast to AetherSX2. If they can iron out the audio bugs and have pass-through charging, whilst providing a better experience for all emulation PS2 and below than what Android can do, then I would be all aboard on installing Windows on my SD2. If it’s possible to even provide the full partition with Windows, even better.
great video. subbed
Thanks :)
The performance is all thanks to the SDM 555 SoC in the Surface Duo.
Is Cinebench emulated on the Duo? It doing so much better than the Pocket is incredible either way, but if so that’s pretty crazy
No cinebench should be native. But it is still impressive
You have the same headset as me lol (hyperx cloud II right?)
Yes, I really like it :)
In Gus we trust
Could you make a video guide on it along with your fixes/troubleshooting? Please kind sir 😅
Sadly, that wouldn't make much sense. The tutorial linked in the description is very dynamic, so the video would be out of date in a short time:/
@@TechKingdom35 Thank you for the response! hope to see updated videos from you of windows 11 on the Duo. Fully functional Dual booting would be so nice
Are you using the Software from Gustave Monce?
Yes, this uses the software from the duoWOA project
I wonder, what is your opinion in DS and 3DS game devices?
What do you mean? Under android ds and 3ds works great
@TechKingdom35 yeah, I didn't explained myself, but you answered my question 👏😂😅😅😅. I still would like to see how Cemu runs 🤔. How much storage takes W11 from the device? The normal amount for an iso?
Funny thing this is second time community port windows on microsoft device
I wish to see a s23 ultra with windows 11!! It would be a monster
Sadly that is not possible. As far as I know no Samsung phone is supported. And that CPU is sadly not supported.
@@TechKingdom35 yeah I know I have a s23 ultra I did my research and it isn't. But that's why I said "I wish" maybe one day tho
@@TechKingdom35porting S23 ultra with MU Qcom
Huh, I would like to see Cemu running a game in one of these!!
Good question. I don't know and currently don't have windows installed at the moment. I might try that in the future
@@TechKingdom35 please do it in the future, I liked this video 😄
It runs GTA V, amazing
Yep. I was surprised to see it running that well on the duo. I really need to test it on a more powerful phone
does this work on surface duo 2?
Yes, but the development is in earlier stages
MOE
REST IN PEACE SURFACE DUO .
Why RIP?
@@TechKingdom35 Didn't You hear the news about the surface duo 3?
Microsoft has (or that IS what I hear) The duo Line.
Of I Am wrong, Ok.
@@TechKingdom35 And the support for the Duo 1 has not been great (In software terms).
@@DonMr Ah that's what you meant. Yeah in true Microsoft fashion they killed it. And barly supported it while it was alive. But that's why the are starting to get cheap :)
next time let's see how FIFA runs on them❤
Older versions would absolutely run
Brother is backk🫡
I am :)
First to comment
:D thanks
Destroys Microsoft's installment of Android on the device as inferior and semi useless. Installs Windows 11 on device full of even more bugs, than even the average person would deal with: perfection! Lol. I know it's a dual boot with Android and Windows, but still. 😅
I mean have you used the duo for a while? It is full of bugs... But you are right it is a bit weird to install an unofficial os then:D But now I have the choice between two buggy operating systems :)
You need graphica driver for that.
I installed drivers for the adrena gpu
