The advantage is that it's a tablet in (roughly) a phone form factor. My Nexus tablet (7 inches) BARELY fits in my pants, and is a bit uncomfortable to carry around. I'm less interested in the productivity side of things, but this looks great for entertainment. I don't like reading ebooks on a phone-sized screen, which wouldn't be an issue. This could also be pretty neat for light gaming with Steam Link/Xbox Gamepass/Moonlight. I'm currently in a situation where I'm able to work remotely for a while, but I'm not going to bring my desktop with me if I spend a week at a cabin in the wilderness. At this price it's not quite worth it for me, but hopefully the Surface Duo does well and dual screen devices get a bit cheaper and add in features I care about like wireless charging
