Microsoft Surface Duo might not get Android 11 until 'mid-year' 2021

Owners of the Microsoft Surface Duo have a bit of a wait until the middle of the year for its Android 11 upgrade, at least according to recent rumours. This late update will mean the foldable device might update this version of the operating system as its next version (Android 12) will come out.
