Try looking in the Play store: MS has quietly put out dozens of (highly rated) Android apps. Not all are for the corporate market
I think you misunderstood my comment. The 'bummer' isn't that the Surface Duo is an Android phone running a bunch of Microsoft apps. I have no problem with that.

The bummer is that it isn't a Windows 10 phone running a bunch of Android apps. I was hoping that was the case, as it would indicate that perhaps Android apps would finally be simple to use on all Windows 10 machines without running an emulator. MS was pushing that at one point, but they gave it up. I was hoping the Surface Duo indicated a reignition for that project.
