DaleRoss,

I don't know where my post went....

releasing the Google Pixel Fold without Pen input, really? Google is clueless about productivity ...

chinpokomon,

@DaleRoss frustrates me too. I do have some thoughts about that though.

The Fold 4 has a "special" pen to keep the tip from gouging the UTG of the inner screen. The aspect ratio of the inner screen works better to hold on one hand and then use the other hand to scribe than the Pixel Fold in landscape. The Duo and Duo 2 would let the user fold the screens so that you could write on a screen half the width of the device. Google could have added pen support for the cover screen and not the inner screen, solving the pressure problem and the screen width problem, but then you'd have people complaining that you have this amazing inner screen and can't write on it.

While I would have liked to have the whole screen to use as a writing surface, regretfully, I think it might have been a good call to leave it out of this release. I think getting the form factor of without the pen is a higher priority than being able to write on it. Once again, this is probably where the Duo 2 did it better.

DaleRoss,

@chinpokomon

laying the device open and flat to write could be a thing.I write on a Surface this way. but the beauty of Duo is pull it out like a small notebook and take notes. this is a thing , an important thing.enough of a thing that I believe Microsoft should focus on that.i see a lot people use those small paper notebooks.
