Phone: Will This Duo Be The BreakThrough?
The latest innovation tech companies have been trying to perfect is the dual- screen device, but so far, the results have been mixed. Microsoft hopes
to change that with the Surface Duo ($1,399), a mobile device with two separate 5.6-inch OLED displays that connect together to form an 8.1-inch workspace. Unlike foldable screens where the display becomes one, this
is more like two screens built to work together—and especially optimized for Microsoft apps. For example, you can have a video conference on one screen with Teams while answering emails on the other through Outlook.
CaMera: BuilT for Vlogging
Are you looking to start a vlog as a new way to reach and engage with people? Are you a content creator who needs an easier way to make videos on your own? Sony purpose-built the new ZV-1 ($799) particularly for you. The ZV-1
is Sony’s first compact camera with a
side-opening Vari-angle LCD screen, which makes it easier to capture your shot in selfie mode while connecting external audio accessories. Other features also make it easier to shoot like a pro, such as a Bokeh switch so you can blur the background and prioritize the focus on your face.

Plus, the touch display can be used for interactive screen sharing, whiteboarding, annotating, and ideation.
