Apple unveils iPhone Duo, its first foldable smartphone FAST-MOVING
Apple has officially entered the foldable smartphone market with the introduction of the iPhone Duo. The device features a 7.6-inch internal display and a 5.4-inch external display, powered by the A20 Pro chip built on a 2nm process. To support the new hardware, Apple is rolling out iOS 27, which includes enhanced AI capabilities via Siri AI and performance improvements that can make applications open up to 30% faster.
Industry analysts, including Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, suggest that the Duo may be the start of a broader product line, potentially including Max, mini, and SE variants. While Samsung has responded with competitive marketing, reports indicate that Apple relies on Samsung Display for the high-specification foldable panels, which cost approximately $250 per unit.
Environmental efforts are also highlighted, with Apple stating the iPhone Duo contains 35% recycled content and is manufactured using 60% renewable electricity. The device is positioned as a luxury tier product, with pricing starting at $1,999 in the US and reaching significantly higher amounts in markets like Brazil and South Korea.
