Apple unveiled its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, during an event in Cupertino, California. CEO John Ternus described the design as thoughtful, noting that it resembles the iPad experience. The Duo features a 19cm internal screen and a 13.7cm external screen when unfolded - the largest-ever iPhone screen. Apple claims the non-texture finish of the screen is superior to other foldables, though a crease's visibility remains unclear.
The device is available in star white and night sky colors, and Apple claims it is the thinnest iPhone ever when opened. Priced at $1,999 for the base model, the iPhone Duo will be available for purchase on October 16, with an early availability possibility of October 23. Despite foldables making up a small portion of the smartphone market, analysts predict strong demand, potentially giving Apple a 25% market share in the foldable market. Apple's stock saw a slight decline at $315.34 per share following the announcement.
