“Captain America: Brave New World” has a surprising Cameo from Microsoft device

I saw on Marvel Captain America: A brave new worldAnd it was Harrison Ford’s All-In Red Hulk (including the monster’s chest hair). However, I will keep my thoughts about how good or how annoying the movie was later. But there was a moment that made me laugh, and then made me think. Don’t worry – it doesn’t spoil anything.

At one point in the movie Sam Wilson, played by Anthony Maki, he takes out his phone to show another character some information (see without ruins). Captain America’s phone optional? Microsoft Surface’s duo.

At first, I thought it was a strange choice. He seems to have all the technologies for superheroes he might want, except Super Soldier Serum (which partly makes it as wonderful as Captain America). He has wings with Wakanda, cool Googles, Redwing and… surface duo phone. Three of the four of them have the perfect sense for Captain America.

As a CNet phone reviewer, Surface Duo Cameo was an unexpected delight. I missed a little laugh when I saw it, and judging by the silence in the theater, I would say that no one else enjoyed the Easter egg on the mobile phone. But this smart placement of the product or a person who gave Maki a cool phone worthy of avenger? Or maybe … Was the appearance of a duo anything else?

Surface Duo is not the first niche phone to get time on screen. Ther Red hydrogen one phone Finished on Dominic Torreto dashboard in F9, and Leonard DiCaprio uses The same phone in don’t look upAlthough neither Leo nor Vin Diesel took advantage of the 3D larticular screen of the phone. So the phone out in a movie or TV show is not completely unexpected for me.

But Sam’s phone is not hydrogen, it’s Microsoft Surface Duo This came in 2020 and was not selling well. A second version, Surface duo 2It came out in 2021, also did not sell well and later became the latest version. It was hard to say which model he had alone – I was looking for the Duo 2 Glance bar, but there was no good shot on the phone closed. (Sam would fully use the Glance tape.)

The surface duo consists of two 5.6-inch screens connected by a pair of stainless steel hinges (one at the top, one at the bottom). This is truly one of the most convenient phones ever made. All this leads to the question: Why does Captain America have a superficial duet?

This is the part I couldn’t stop thinking about. There is a fictional galaxy where he bought the phone himself in 2020 and because he is such a meticulous technician when it comes to taking care of his equipment, he just keeps it in perfect condition for five years (or seven years, don’t forget Captain America : Brave New World was placed in 2027). Although I definitely had to exchange the battery at a time.

Then there is another scenario where you read about how incredible the Surface Duo hardware (despite some major software problems) and bought it only for the brilliant Microsoft Folio design. And just like the way he deals with his Exo 7 Falcon Jetpack, I can predict himself to hack himself and upload his own software to work on the duo and use it since then.

Or just use the duet as a burner phone? If so, it would be a big flexible when it comes to a burner phones in television and movies.

I go back to red hydrogen an example, as this can really tell us why the duo is in a film by Captain America. Years ago, I interviewed Adam McKay, the rear director Don’t Looko, the big short and anchor. He explained to me that the discontinued hydrogen was not cared for because a support man recommended it. McCay wanted a unique phone and that didn’t look like a standard screen phone.

“And then he (the man from the support) comes back with this phone. He goes:” This is a whole mobile phone that the red camera has made. They have never released it. Check it, “McCay explained.” And I started playing with him. I was like, “Why didn’t they let this go? It’s amazing.” But obviously it’s a little difficult and not comfortable for users. “

So why does Captain America have a superficial duet? We can never know. All this is to say, the movie could be better.
