Apple iPhone Duo review: Two screens, two experiences, two thousand dollars

3 sources →

Apple has entered the foldable smartphone market with the iPhone Duo, a device featuring a 'passport-style' design and a starting price of $1,999. The hardware includes a 5.4-inch external display and a 7.6-inch internal screen. While initial reviews highlight Apple's engineering of the screen crease to be nearly invisible, reports of screen durability issues have emerged, leading to public criticism and comparisons to other flagship foldables like the Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold and Samsung Fold 8. The launch represents a significant design shift for Apple under the leadership of CEO John Ternus.
