Microsoft Surface Duo Specs Full Technical Specifications

No, it doesn’t! No wired or wireless earbuds are available within the Surface Duo retail box. Since there is no headphone jack on Surface Duo, you will need a USB-C compatible headset or a USB-C to 3.5mm headphone adapter to use wired headphones on Surface Duo.

Alternatively, Surface Duo works best with Surface Earbuds as Surface Duo preloaded the Surface Audio app to enhance the user experience and functionality.

No, it doesn’t! Surface Pen or stylus isn’t included in the box when you purchase Surface Duo. However, Surface Duo supports all Surface Pen shipped with Surface Pro 3 or later, including Surface Slim Pen, which perfectly fits the form factor of the Surface Duo. On top of that, it also supports all third-party styluses that use N-trig active pen technology.

There are three ports and slots available on Microsoft Surface Duo:

1. 1 x USB Type-C.
2. 1 x Nano LTE sim slot.

No, it doesn’t! Surface Duo is skinny; there is no way it can afford space for a headphone jack. To use a headphone on Surface Duo, there are two workarounds:

1. You will need a USB-C compatible headset or a USB-C to 3.5mm headphone adapter to use wired headphones on Surface Duo.
2. Alternatively, Surface Duo works best with Surface Earbuds as Surface Duo preloaded the Surface Audio app to enhance the user experience and functionality.

No, it doesn’t! Despite its all-glass design, Surface Duo has yet to include wireless charging support for its first generation.
